So I'm at my college's library just finished working on a paper and so I stand up to stretch and as I stand up I see something that surprises me.

3 guys all next to each other playing WoW

is this normal at all I've never it my entire life seen this.

but it did give me the good idea to put SCBW on a flash drive and use it to burn the time I am now from my previous class to my next one. :D:D:D ( I really wanted a certain teacher so I have a 4 hour break in between classes I tend to get things done but 3 1/2 hours of work sometimes burns me out ):D:D:D

haha I sat behind this kid in the library and watched him play WoW for like 30 minutes(he was a noob running heroics, he was wiping the group over and over, I almost went over and punched him..)

i've seen those in lectures over here, not just library. But then again, university education is almost free over here, so a lot more idiots run around in the first few semesters than else where..

Ya, it's normal wherever there is free wifi. I saw this guy going all out on his laptop playing SC2 at Lollicup, looked like he was having a seizure.

I don't play games during class, but I've played SC2/BW for 3 hours straight in my school's library.

My bladder hurt after that. Now there's a reason why I play only at home.

Prof is a power hungry dick. If the kid is smart enough to pass the class without paying attention why does that bother the professor so much?

But yeah I see kids playing WoW, SW, SC, etc all the time at school.

Lol reminds me when my friend played BW with a touchpad during a mass lecture few years ago. He actually got to C level doing that haha.

because sitting behind some one dicking around on their laptop is distracting. though the prof would be the one to object to that before students would

because it's distracting for everyone else sitting behind him to have a kid sit in lecture playing an fps o.o but seriously why would you ever go to lecture just to game out... just stay at home.

There was that guy always coming to every course at my university. He did'nt even look up from time to time. He would just sit there and play WoW all day long. The room was full of people, the air was smothery, you almost fell asleep if you were listening to the professor. That guy wasn't obligated to sit there but you could watch him play every day. Did he come for the internet connection? I don't get that. What's up with those guys?

I don't think it's normal especially if you consider they could play at home. Dunno if that was the case with the guys in the library, guess they played in between breaks?

I remember during my programming class, half of the computers had the DotA 2 Invitational stream open.
Of course, everyone had their finger on the Alt+Tab in case the teacher decided to take a walk around the classroom.

But yeah, you should always have CS 1.6 and/or SC:BW in a flash drive in case you and your friends have nothing to do during a class. :D

Because the prof might say something important about the midterm or final. A lot of people do this but they usually sit at the back.

This is so true. But if you're busy with gaming you won't recognize him saying something important. Rather watch a stream and check what's going on around you from time to time. The only problem is that it is disrespectful ;(

Someone should step it up and go ask one of these fellows why they do it.
I want to be with those who share secret things or else alone.

Probably a change of scenery when gaming, or they live at home and they cant camp at home playing games all day.
