This is why you don't use lingo from the WoW boards off of the WoW boards.

Even our WoW boards, for the most part are greek to me. QFT has meant quit fucking talking for as long as I can remember.

Anyone who grinds a Paladin to 60 - and gets him flagged for every instance - knows the WoW boards well.

Burned. Oh wait, that's me.

What are you talking about?  You catassed a rogue to 14 and quit!

hehe.

You can play WoW to that degree without ever hitting the main boards. You will want to be guilded though. Pickup raids suck. They'll get you flagged, but probably not shit thereafter.

As to QFT and all that ORLY crap, it's just intarweb stuff. Every community, like every generation of teenager, has to define themselves somehow. It helps make people feel happy and a part of a clan or something. And I say that as having been a part of it there and everywhere else just as many of us had.

Mock and whatnot, game boards are fun.

Every single time, the official forum for any game will make me loathe that game and contribute heavily to moving my pointer to the CANCEL button.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

The best part about official game forums is that those are the fucktards they want to force me to group with.

Fuck that noise.

That's just here I thought.

It's also notable that playing these games with F13ers is much different than talking about games with them, even in the case of the same game. I always found that funny, in a good way.

Hmm? I've never found it different. Howso?

Well, one big difference is that if you join the F13 corp in EVE, we are not at all likely to blow you up even though we can do so without penalty.

Agreed to some degree ;)

Sadly popular games tend to gather the worst people from the internet.

I'm a gamer for the reasons that I'm a lot of things: I enjoy being a girl who's really into non-girl things. Although of late, my feminine side has experienced a backlash and I now wear pink. But I've been into games as long as I can remember. Praying for rainy days so recess could be spent indoors playing 'Oregon Trail' or 'Where in the World is Carmen San Diego', faking I'm friends with someone so I can play their Nintendo (my family was poor), you get the gist. MMOGs are such a new development for me, and I'm still uncertain as to whether or not it will "stick". I came to f13 before I realized it was largely a MMOG forum - I came for a thread about a fake bonus disc that supposedly came with pre-ordering Twilight Princess (April Fool's joke).

I bragged that I was into games to impress Sauced. Saying you game is like having a geek badge that precedes you. When I talk about gaming, half the time it's solely to see someone's eyes glaze over.

Wait, I don't think I answered the question. I guess if you ask me whether or not I'm a MMO gamer or hobbiest, I'd say neither. I'm still a console gamer who has picked up a MMOG just this one time.
