Seeing is this is a fairly well known game I figured I'd see if anyone here plays, I'm on Thorium Brotherhood Realm if anyones intersted
-
I know that game but I dont play it because...... well it sucks LoL Jking :D)
Because of that game many people I know stoped playing anything else just to be on "WoW" they are all B) if you want my opinion LoL :P

Let me apologize befor I continue on with this post.
Quite honestly if you're going to sterotype people based on the games they play I'll pass on your opinoin any day. I'd guess that isn't the nicest thing I've said but I know alot of people who play, my self included and I don't know that any of us consider our selves to be nerds. I started agian because I met a few people who playd and figured it would be something fun. I'd also say when I look to buy a game I tend to look for something that I'll want to be playing quite abit, rather then just something to play for a few days and put down.( think most games like Makai Senki Disgaea)
Agian I'm looking for anyone whos intersted in playing, all lvls classes and even realms, I'd be willing to reroll to play with some of you if any ones intersted.

Ouch... that hit a spot...
1st. I didnt sterotype no one...
I said that I know alot of people that play that game some of them are married and I wouldnt call my friends a nerd (yours I would but not mine LoL) If you got all pissed just because of a smiley and a simple reply... man you need to cool down and read a book... :&
And Im sorry if a offended any one that plays that game O-)

I never said I was pissed about anything, simply stating my opinion. How ever I may just take your read a book idea, I've got a few I've wanted to cetch up on. Anyway let me clarify a few things, when you say
"Because of that game many people I know stoped playing anything else just to be on "WoW" they are all if you want my opinion LoL"
Hmm the smilie didn't copy... oh well. Anyway my point is quite simply that is a stero type silly. If I where to say all people who watch anime are nerds in my opinion would you consider that a sterotype?
Urrm I just reread your post... Please clerify this for me.
"1st. I didnt sterotype no one..."
So then you're saying you did sterotype people am i correct? :? :?
Anyway I'm finished up here. Can we please get a link to the picture of a rabit with a pancake on it's head!

Like I said I did not Stereotype anyone.
Btw, Stereotypes are considered to be a group concept, held by one social group about another. They are often used in a negative or prejudicial sense and are frequently used to justify certain discriminatory behaviors. More benignly, they may express sometimes-accurate folk wisdom about social reality.
Often a stereotype is a negative caricature or inversion of some positive characteristic possessed by members of a group, exaggerated to the point where it becomes repulsive or ridiculous.
Stereotype production is based on:
Simplification;
Exaggeration or distortion;
Generalization;
Presentation of cultural attributes as being 'natural'.
Stereotypes are seen by many as undesirable beliefs which can be changed through education and/or familiarization. However, stereotypes need not be confined to negative characterizations about individuals or groups, and can thus have positive characterizations.
There are also genuinely positive stereotypes about groups. Some groups have, as a deliberate political strategy, tried to evolve new genuine positive stereotypes for themselves.
So, 1st of all Im not a group; 2nd Im in the same group as the Pc games players or "gamers" and 3rd Like I said in the first post I was joking, not my fault you take things to seriously.
Oh... btw, nerd is not considered a stereotype.
