Gaming is the coolest thing EVAR. It makes you totally awesome + 3.

Just look at me as an example. A role model, if you will. Geek out and prosper. Or something like that.

Do you even have to ask?? Gamers are the coolest people ever.

Now get thee to Gamers, PnP RPGs, and probably Comics, andScience Fiction too.

Gaming is cool, RPGs are kinda lame, online RPGs are about the lamest thing in gaming since Q-Bert.

While RPGs are lame based on the combat systems, pointlessly long gameplay, and generic stories featuring too many cutscenes, online RPGs are about spending 50 hours killing rats, and they suck away ones life. I guess it depends on the RPG, a few are good.

Gaming is only cool when it's hardcore. Like if you're a hardcore gamer - like the ones in Blockbuster commercials.

Whaddya talkin' bout? Geek culture is totally being jacked by the mainstream. Thus all the things traditionally associated with being a geek. PNP RP, Gaming, Comics, Sci-fi/fantasy is now cool! God help us all.

If you're college-age or younger, you can be cool being a gamer of any sort. Beyond that; relegate it to a hobby or else your adult life will suffer.

As someone whose been gaming in one form or another for about 15 years now let me just say that the above statement made me feel all tingly all over and even a little bit goofy headed to boot.

I stay the hell away from gaming. It sucks me in and suddenly I don't get anything else done.

Cool? yes... keep it away!

Gaming is so goddamn lame because it is So Fucking Cool. Give me a good game and I skip meals and don't answer my phone.

I have been thinking about having a game night at my apartment.

Anybody in the Baltimore/DC area, who would come if I did so?

Actually I'll drop this idea into the gamer group and see what I hear back. smile
