Or some random :skull::skull::skull::skull: like that. =P You can learn a lot more from IRL people than you can from people in MMOs. You can go outside with your friends and play frisby while discussing the new batman movie, or that cute naked chick you both saw at the river the other day because you were /doing/ something and not wasting your time on an MMO. I mean, yeah, I see how they can be fun, but ... if you really thought of the futility of it when you open the MMO ... you'd probably get just as sick of it as me. Imagine if you spent fifteen hours trying to pick up a girl, or practicing how to cook ... you'd be getting somewhere. ;D
Oh god, shut up.

Your post is nothing but a bunch of self-righteous bull. Go up to a stranger and ask him the question you provided yourself, because I bet you haven't ever done that. You'll notice most people in this world do not take kindly to strangers just sitting down at random and talking to them, let alone questioning their existence. Don't criticize people's choices of life and yours won't be criticized. Some people like playing MMORPGs, if you don't, fine, but don't tell people it'd be just the same experience as going outside because it isn't.

If you want to talk about futility, let's go ahead and talk. Someday you are going to do. Everything you've done in your life will be forgotten because it isn't important in the scheme of things. You will die and everyone else that you knew will die.

I play them because I can and because I want to. That's my reason, not my excuse. If you don't approve of it, I don't care. I have a life outside of video games and I don't need some self-righteous prick who thinks his choices of a lifestyle is better than mine.

Oh yeah and mods, if this can be seen as an attack then his post is a troll. So gg.
