I'm getting sick of all the stereotyping about PC gamers being fat or nerds. It's probably not a lot in SW, but members like wok7 have been doing it and outside of SW like in schools or with friends.

So the whole idea of PC gamers being fat is because they are addicted to games like WoW and they never leave their chair. If that so then how come most pro PC gamers aren't fat? By pro gamers, I mean PC gamers who play video games for living. They spend most of their day playing games like Counter Strike, Quake 4 or Starcraft, but for some reason they are not fat. An example would be fatal1ty. This guy is a pro gamer that makes living of playing games like Quake 4. Here are two pictures of him:

Here is also a link of him playing against PC Gamer crew:

So can you tell me how is this guy fat? He play games daily and he is not fat. He is also rich, and famous. as I remember he has been interviewed on many TV channels and many websites.

Another example would be the pro player Lim Yo-Hwan or better know as SlayerS_BoxeR. He is a pro Korean Starcraft player. This guy probably spends more than 8 hours practicing Starcraft, but for some reason he is not fat. Some pictures of him:

So, he is a pro gamer, rich and famous, but he is not fat. Also for people who say PC gamers are nerds, well SlayerS_BoxeR has more fangirls then you will have. So much for being a nerd.

I can personal speak on the Korean SK team having played starcraft against them. They eat healthy. Korean food is down right healty. As for American PC gamers, I'm not saying all PC gamers are obese, but they are out there. You can't deny that. Also having a girlfriend doesn't keep you from being a nerd. Nerd have girlfriends too. Hell, most of them are married.

You played against them? Hope you won. Do you know who were the players you played against?

Also, I know some PC gamers are fat, but I highly doubt its all because of PC gaming. Also as for the nerds part, I was just saying that girls won't run away from you because you are a Pc gamer.

This was in 2002. Park Jae-Min was the top dawg on the team. Choi Hung-Son was also a beast at the time. This was an event held by the US-ROK Army and SK team sponsors. It was a 3 on 3 man tournament and my team came in 5th place (8 teams total). I also meet Mad-dog Jin, the greatest Tekken fighter in Korea.

Are you referring to videogames as a "sport" when you say that it is a joke or are you referring to your post? If you are talking about the "sport" then yes I agree with you it is a joke.

Video games as a sport, to make a living out of it. Trying to be portrayed as a real athlete

There is a reason why they call it e-sports, but I still agree. It shouldn't be called a sport.

Baltimore and yea even more fat people stuffing their faces everywhere, you would think that a light would go off in their fat faces and stop them from eating so much but nooo!!

I saw a man so fat he was in a wheelchair with his ankles swollen in of all places Mc' Donald's!!

You live in America then try to go just one day without seeing a fat person I dare you unless you live in the woods.

I live in South Carolina. Maybe 10% at most are fat. Other than SC, I don't know. And wait a minute, yanks? NC, Texas, SC, and Florida ain't for Yanks.
