Blob,

I think you should post a gif of your animated alter-ego bopping away in Quake.

Maybe we could all take bets on which piece of music you're dancing to?

It's funny how the article tries to make it look like it's a new, cool, and practically widespread thing, when in fact we are looking at 10-20, or maybe 100 women that are attracted to this.

Frankly, I'd be more happy and excited to hear that women worldwide start forming "excercise clans", and that suddenly they find it cool to join a gym, excercise, play sports, participate in a soccer/volleyball/basketball/whatever team, and stay in shape, VS a stupid fad such as online gaming and then dating the "lucky chosen few". What a stupid way to get any recognition, IMO.

Well
It’s difficult to know...
There is a huge gay presence, though i hear nothing about that either.

But last time i was on there were 4 (girls?) there named @>>>>>, [ different colours- it’s supposed to be a flower ], and i do come across a few names, and odd types,...

Call me old fashioned, but if you can't meet people and form relationships in the flesh without hiding behind a computer screen then you have got serious problems.

It's quite sad really.

Of course I do Karlos, but I'm also able to form relationships in real life too! ;-)

"Shoot first, love later" - isn't that equal to necrophilism?
