the stereotype that gamers are loners in general you think its true.....

IMO i think gamers tend to be smarter than the average population and we tend to be more introverted.....

just my thoughts so heres a sort of poll tell if you consider yourself introverted or not....

My friends are in a totally different world than I am so I keep to myself about the games I play. I'm not a loner but I'm definitely on the fringe of most of my circles of friends.

Meh, sometimes. I myself am sort of like that but I have lots of friends that share common interest, like cars.

Depends on the experiences of the gamer of question. When I was younger it was "uncool" to admit that you had a game console in the outside world and I always loved gaming. I have friends but I've stopped being outgoing as a person and I'll prefer to just stay home and play games instead of going somewhere like a party.

i agree alot of people are tools and look down and gaming and thats why i think playing somethign not maintstream or considered nerdy makes gamers more introverted because we cant relate to as many people as other hobbies like football etc....

I think it has more to do with what type of gamer you are. If you're more of a hardcore gamer than I'd be willing to bet you're more of an introvert, but more casual gamers like myself are more likely to be extroverts.

No, I don't think gamers are "naturally" introverted. Introversion is just as normal as extroversion btw. Introversion is just not as common....in the US at least.

This was probably true back in 1985, but not so much anymore. Gaming is bigtime.

I'm pretty introverted, but that doesn't neccessarily go for gamers in general.
