    mmorpgs people are socialising with many other people alotof the time so i dunno what thats on about....

    well yea there's a huge difference in socializing with people on a game that live 1000 miles away rather than socializing with people that live in your area and actually "do things with" lol

    It doesn't "hurt people's lives" if you draw a line. Don't get both those lives mixed up, and most importantly...know your priorities.
    Game stays, friends don't. /sarcasm

    That's pretty sad, i'm sure those people think of it as an emulation of real life, another way to make friends you'll probably never meet and girlfriends that you'll never kiss. What's even worse is that they can hardly be brought back to reality, because they're probably thinking of it as a way of life. IMHO, it's just a big dream. When they'll wake up and see the emptiness they've created, they're gonna feel like crap and will have to start over.

    I wouldnt say that.. Gaming is a fairly new form of enterrainment its expanding moar and moar. Heck. I know people who found their love on the internet and met them. Seriously people just need to accept new things. give them time.

    Seriously and how can you people ever blame people who are having fun. As long if you have fun its not a frakkin waste of time.

    i guess but most gamers nowadays do both so the topic title doesnt make sense. If i made a poll in the general section or w.e i bet most would say they have a lifestyle outside of their computer/gaming world.

    Its just the odd few its probably because alot of teens nowadays think that getting drunk/high is fun but meh.

    +rep for Ayabi

    hit the nail on the head lol
