I realized that gaming ruined my life .... I mean yes its fun and all but I also realized it was getting harder for me to talk people which proves that it really makes you antisocial. I almost wasted half of my day infront of my 360 where as now i do something productive with my life like meet friends and go to partys. And now that I stopped gaming i realize it was really a waste of my time eventhough i do play every so often or sometimes i play a short round with my friends but not as extreme as a year ago.

 

PS: no one can tell me that gaming doesnt make you lose your ability to talk normal I mean just look at all the gamers talking like the biggest idiots saying stuff like pwoned and all of that

Um, cool? Why is this in system wars and not in your blog?  Personally, you just let it get too far.  I'll go out on a limb here and say that my schedule is WAY more hectic and ALOT more stressful than yours and yet I still find time to play every once in awhile.  You just let it get too far.  Gaming is a hobby, it doesn't ruin lives unless you let it.

its called resposibility. learn how to balance things or else you don't deserve them. don't blame games, it was your inability to control yourself.

This guy makes it sound like being a gamer is like being a drunk or pot-head or some sort of addict in general.

I am a gamer, and if you look at me, you wouldn't think I play games. :lol: Do you actually think it is videogames that's making you talk the way you do? if it does, you must be weak minded.

BS of the highest form. you're weak-minded. games are a passive hobby for me and always will be. they aren't an activ addiction. learn to maintain your own life.

As a gamer who, in his senior year in high school, qualified for the National Championships in Congress style debate, I can tell you with no doubt in my heart that no, gaming does not affect your speaking ability, be it casual, persuasive, or whatever.

you can still enjoy games and have a life. If you have got extra time / nothing to do, instead of watching TV for hours, some would play games.

Maybe you should see a doctor or something, if it makes you talk weird then there might be a bigger problem. And just because gaming makes you have problems does not mean that this applies to everyone that plays videogames.

Its one thing to be a gamer.  I play videogames excessively in my free time, but I have no problem dealing with people in public.

I guess it all boils down to personality. But no videogames? thats torture for me!
