[Nowhere Man]

First, full disclosure. I am a lifelong gamer. I've been playing literally since Pong.

Me too, we must be near the same age, I'm 46. I'm a typical nerd myself, I enjoy gaming both online and RPG's as well as hold an amateur radio license. Also, into science fiction, we try our best to live by the rule, "if you don't wiz on my tree, I won't wiz on yours." I believe as long as it does not hurt your family life or career, a hobby is a good thing to have and to relax to. I love World of Tanks, but I only do a few to several rounds at a time.

Yep. I’m 48. I grew up with video games. Visits to the arcade, home games systems that started with a simple tank/pong console from Sears to the Atari 2600 to the Xbox-360 I have now. That and slew of gaming PC’s from a lowly XT that played Infocom games to the liquid cooled monster I have now.
