I've also kept SRO a secret. Not so much because I'm ashamed of it, but people who talk about MMO's irl are kind of stupid IMO. Especially people who have a screenshot of their character as their FB profile pic. Makes me facepalm.

This. My friends know that I play video games (even though I don't think I'm a gamer), but I hate talking about games when I'm out or something.

Wait, wait... why talking about MMO's or games overall irl is stupid?
Me and my gf do it most of the time, some with some of my friends. Occasionally.

Yeah... this sounds pretty crazy!

I only talk about games with a couple of friends who play these games. When there are more people around, then I don't.

I only discuss certain games with people. I'd never bring up Silkroad, but I'd talk about WoW all day.

Games like Halo/Call of Duty/any other recent games are fair though.

It's not stupid. It's just that I enjoy talking about other stuff more.

Yes....there is a social stigma associated with gamers....and that is they are bickering, nerdy, know-it-all and have no lives or any cool/current/adequate social skills beyond the computer screen....And some gamers reinforce that stereotype and its kinda embarrassing to be associated/thought of in light of this assessment even when you know its incorrect...So it best to just keep it a secret...

Yeah, that's exactly why I don't tell people about SilkRoad, it's just that this is the only MMORPG I play and none of my friends play these types of games and the people that do play these kind of games are viewed by them as people who have no social life and as awkward people.

I do however play online games with them, mostly CoD, Battlefield 3 and Madden.

If there true mates there wouldnt judge you on what games you play, everyone has there own personnel prefrence on what games to play and enjoy, at the end of the day its only a game.

There's a huge difference in not talking about something because you're ashamed of it(which I don't really think is anyone's case here) and not talking about something because you're the only one who could actually talk about the subject.

None of my friends play Silkroad, and very few play WoW. I'm not going to talk about either subject with the friends that don't play either because the conversation would be very one sided.

I think the roids are messing with your ability to think logically.

It's not like my friends would stop talking to me because they would find out I play this game, but they would give me shit about it as long as they could, because that's what true friends do.

The only games I play with my friends are Dota and blops2, when I'm with just them, we'll occasionally talk about it, but it won't be all we talk about, cause y'know we do shit other than play games that's worth talking about too LOL. And then when we go out with the rest of my friends with the ladies included, having your own conversation about games ain't gonna get you pussy and just makes the whole outing awkward. Sometimes I go to birthdays and more than usually, there's a small group of people who play league, and that's all they would talk about at my friend's birthday or party; which makes them seem loserish. If you have friends irl that you play games with, you're probably gonna leave game talk at home over Skype or some shit, that's why people don't usually talk about games when they're out.

Yep. People think that they only live once and they are too impatient so they start living two lives simultaneously.
