@Renee: That’s a great attitude to have!
@Gary: I’ve wondered that myself
@MarkofJin: Thanks! That was fun to draw.
@Zan: I think the problem is that too often people assume that if you play MMOs like WoW that you automatically put it before RL stuff.

Yeah it’s comments like that that really get me down sometimes. I have no problem with being poked fun of for “nerding out” but then people often get so negative with it!

I wonder how often this kind of thing happens because people don’t show their true selves to the world (not just in gaming respects)
