This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Are you a Gamer?

Just posting on these boards makes you a gamer. Only a gamer would find any of the stuff we talk about here interesting. :D

You just do not watch the right movies. ;) The question is a bit rediculous so I felt responding in kind to be appropriate.

Quote from: TonyLBSo let me get this straight:  You feel like people have sought out opportunities to insult you because you're not "gamer" enough for them.  So you, in turn, are going to seek out opportunities to insult them because they sought out opportunities to insult you?

Well, I suppose you're just playing your part in the thriving life-cycle of internet grudges, but it all seems sort of pointless to me.  Why not try saying "I'm a GAMER, and screw anyone who says differently!" and see where it gets you?  You might well find that there aren't as many people who want to argue the point as you imagined.
It's more that rather than directly addressing the accusation of trolling to foment drama, he decided to try and distract from them by playing the "Internet Martyr" card and make an entire movement out of one sentence that doesn't even mean what he's billing it to mean.

It's really a pretty impressive amount of effort, and delightfully ironic because rather than addressing the claim that he's just here to stir up drama, isntead he goes off and tries to create more drama.

 You should put that on a BUSINESS CARD .

 I'm not joking. Thats would be cool.

 added to it.

Quote from: Serious PaulWhat makes a gamer?
You are a gamer if you game, or want to game.

It's a bit like being straight. You don't stop being straight just because you're not getting any, and you don't stop being a gamer just because you don't have a game group.

If you decide you hate or are indifferent to the opposite sex, and hang around on dating forums saying that women are all bitches or men are all bastards and relationships are all doomed, then really you are not heterosexual any more - you're asexual. Similarly, if you hate or are indifferent to gaming and gamers, and hang around on game forums abusing gamers and gaming, then really you're not a gamer anymore - you're a BNG, a Bitter Non-Gamer.

You are a gamer if you game, or want to game.

Posting in a gaming forum on your birthday doesn't hurt either ;)
