I must say you throughly convinced me to slam on my brakes and make a complete 180 from pro to anti-gaming. I mean you definately took into account my first hand experience that your ignorant ass has never been through, and then applied it to your point of view. I definately think of gaming as never ever for any reason being anything more than just for fun. I mean playing competetively for money? when has money ever put something to a level past recreation?
You want to reply like a little kid? then I'll talk to you like a little kid. Let me first show you what I wrote:
Playing Halo 2, whether for competition, for fun, or for money, is RECREATION no matter how you guys try to spin it. Just because a select few get a bonus for playing 8 hours a day, everyday, does not mean it constitutes as being a job.
That being said, you can do anything in the world for money.. does that make it a job? NO. I won $100 at the roulette table, does that mean its my job now? way to miss the point completely.
I dunno man, i mean obviously all landscaping is recreation because some people enjoy gardening and shaping their yards. Obviously being a chef is completely recreational because I enjoy cooking, even since I was 8! I mean if an 8 year old can cook, it must be a joke of a job for a 40 year old MAN to do it. AH HAHAHA, it's just laughable how now, because of your argument, I know see almost all middle class jobs as completely recreational. I don't know how I didn't see it before!!! Navillus, I present to you the Nobel Peace prize for single handedly, and permanently, ending this debate.
I forgot where I said anything enjoyable = recreation. Can you PLEASE quote it for me? Pretty please? Oh wait... that's right... you're a moron.
And for your information Navillus, who is obviously santa clause in disguise because he knows what everyone does all the time. I started working at 16 at a Junk Yard doing inventory and dealing with customers, then at an Auto Body doing prep and recon, I've done days with a septic friend of my family who pays out big for dealing with "poop", and I've done a whole "poop" load of carpentry. So overall Mr. Clause AKA (ha HAaAA! I knew santa was real!!!!) Navillus, I have worked many real jobs.
Thats also true.. right on the money. I know what everyone does! Holy crap what a discovery! And after working all those jobs, do you sit back and consider playing games a job? And tell the truth little boy.. because I obviously know who's naughty and who's nice.
You should probably take a step back from yourself and realize that I'm trying to inform you of the other side of the argument no one else here has been able to show. Your disregard for what I've posted acts as a crystal clear window, showing your stuborn ignorance and bias against gaming as a job. It is just as much work as most other jobs. You do not understand and choose not to accept it. Even when I've shown exactly what it takes to be pro, so you YOURSELF can make your own juxtaposition. You should probably just bow out of this discussion now before your pride drops below the suicide line.
So now I'm stubborn and ignorant because I don't consider playing a video game, whether in leagues or tournaments, a job? You might as well call society ignorant and stubborn then. Wake up and smell the coffee kid.
Oh I forgot... its just as much work as other jobs huh? you might as well start telling yourself the world is flat and believing it as well.
No scope headshoting Noobullus all day,

His true maturity level comes out! Thanks for wasting my time Zachery.
