The word has kind of become synonymous with fat fratbros and their Call of Duty, gamer guuuurrrrlls and people that spend all day playing Minecraft and MOBAs.

Basically it's all negative.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;45855778]im so upset and angry after seeing that news
im fucking cold and angry over that[/QUOTE]
It really is upsetting. Child abuse is one of those things I have absolutely zero tolerance for. Those people are just absolute scum.

well that's why it's not a title
you don't go up to people and say "why hello I am Gamer George Dickens" or something like you were knighted by the queen of video games
it's just a word, man

so intead of fighting against the shitty stereotypes and misinformation about people who play games, we're going to blame a word that by definition literally just means anybody who plays games
I don't see the logic in that
[QUOTE=Zonesylvania;45855743]The same thing that he got banned for. He acted arrogantly condescending to whoever didn't agree with his viewpoints. He basically shit up the GD thread discussing the Zoey Quinn affair again and apparently this was enough for the mods (in this case, Orkel) to remove him from the premises. He also shilled a lot for Russia on his alt as Gentry.[/QUOTE]
Honestly I don't think I can agree with almost anything pro-Russians say about Ukraine but almost all of it is weapons grade shit pumped straight from the Kremlin. I've never trusted the Russians and with good reason.
People legitimately do use it as a [del]title[/del] label though? (and it's a noun)

[QUOTE=benzi2k7;45855892]gaymer XD[/QUOTE]
Maybe that could be my next name
Hey, I'm just saying. I don't even call myself a gamer because I don't see the need in labels, but I also don't see the logic behind completely writing off the word just because of a few stereotypes.
Nothing wrong with the word gamer itself just because there are some disagreeable things tied to it.
Ok then
I don't hate the word. I hate how people use it.
That's essentially what I meant in the first place.
robert downey jr can eat a dick. whoppers are great.

It's the same with metalheads and stoners. All three groups are so boring and one-dimensional.

friday night lights (the series from 2006) is so good
god i just finished it was so good
I see you Amazon, sneakily adding days to me expected delivery date.
It was the 3rd when I ordered, and now it's the 5th.
Don't think I didn't notice.
The only time when gamer is not acceptable is when companies use it to try to cash in on people who play games by making dumb products like "gamer" food or glasses.

Woah shit, Soak City is nothing compared to Raging Waters. I've got to go there sometime.
i should buy the bluray of the raid. i'd like to hear the original non-shinoda score
the big celeb nude leak is so fucked up and hypocritical
"THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO STOP INVADING OUR PRIVACY! oh hey nudes of a hot celeb. let's jack off to them because that's not an invasion of privacy"
It would be ok for the government to spy as long as they posted nudes.

Not trying to defend the whole leak or anything, but there is a difference between the government invading people's privacy and some random dude doing it.
