I don't know anything about you, I'm just telling you how your comment came off. Personally I have no skin in the game because I've never played an RPG, so you should put your defensive accusations of insecurity on hold for a second and consider whether there really was something about your comment that made it come off the way I interpreted it. Hint: it wasn't simply agreeing that table top gamers tend to be nerdy.


Fair enough. I was only sharing my thoughts and impressions, thus the phrasing "I think" and similar words.

My preference doesn't in any way imply I think less of others that like playing games. I generally like playing games/watching movies/reading books, it's just my priorities that often direct me otherwise.

Yes, maybe the OMG Nerd sounds offensive to some, but then that's just life. It's how others see you if you happen to be a nerd. I am also a bit nerdy, so I also have to accept that reality sometimes.
