Being a Gamer Left Me...



This poster created by 9gag is not complete enough... let's just add some stuff to it!

Warning: This post may be a bit tongue-in-cheek and you should definitely not take this post too seriously. Oh and if you play MMOs extensively, you should be able to relate.



1. Perfect Aiming
...using a mouse/a console



2. Great Reflexes
...for the pointer finger or thumb, wrists and perhaps arms



 3. History Knowledge
Of course, this includes only the interesting parts, where people kill other people. For games that allow you to 'change history', you may end up learning the wrong version... YOUR version of 'history' instead!




4. English Language
Jajajajaja as well as the many abbreviations that you won't be able to find in a proper English dictionary, such as noob, nerf, leet, quick-scope, ghosting and gank... although some do, somehow, make it into English dictionaries like the word "griefer".




5. Co-op Tactics
More like "the many different reasons for you to start pulling your hair out in frustration"!



6. Strategic Planning
It's a guaranteed wipe, no matter how good your planning was for killing a boss, if your single surviving healer DC-ed or is lagging to the point of doing nothing (and other worst case scenarios).




7. Never Surrender Mentality
When overwhelmed by the opposing faction or team, avoid respawning in order to avoid getting ganked over and over at the ressing or spawning point. In the worst case, Alt+F4 or leave the team. After all, your kill/death ratio (KDR) must be protected at all costs!




8. And Hours And Hours of Fun
Of cursing at the computer or your teammates/friends over Teamspeak/ Ventrilo (or any VoIP), via text chat or out loud. Ah, the good, good times!



If you've enjoyed this and can relate (we feel you, bro/gal), do let us know in the comments section!
