mulls Posted July 12, 2005 Posted July 12, 2005 i guess you can just do anything aggressively online and say you're a cyber-whatever athlete, businessman, boyfriend, etc. good for those who wish they could be something in the real world but dont have the work ethic to pull it off. yes i'm a hater right now. i love video games but this has gone too far.

White Knight Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 In some cases its a Bount Hunter game, especially when its involing killing other folks in video games to get real money. All players in that particular game are like Bounty Hunters and they are There to Collect the Prize. unfortunately it can be like that, [b]but its also a sport at the sametime if you think about it, its just a different kind of sport.[/b]

Just because one is pro-cyberathletic doesn't make them a slacker in anyway, nor someone who can't do anything in the "real world". It's unfortunate you're applying the "computer geek" stereotype to every hardcore gamer out there. In today's world, it's hard to tell the difference between a gamer and a non-gamer. Plus, many gamers have successful lives and families. Edited July 13, 2005 by Paladin D
