I remember that there was this one kid last semester that would always watch baseball streams on his laptop. And whenever there was a bad play he would grunt and shake his head lol. I mean I tried really hard to focus on the lecture but I can't help but be distracted by his reactions.

Still don't get people being distracted by it visually though. Why aren't you focusing on your notes, the professor, or some hot gir lin class like a normal person? Weirdos. Let me slack off in peace


it's someone playing a computer game, with thing blowing up and an irregular pace... it's bound to draw your eye, hense why we notice police cars/emergency vehicles so easily, it's out of the ordinary. sorry, most students don't have the attention span of a god and tend to watch the game instead of focusing for 2 hrs.. which is why professors always say "i don't have people walking around because i don't need to, your peers will be watching you from behind and i'll know who is watching a movie jerking off etc.."
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

From what i noticed, the people who got distracted by the games when i had lectures were the same who spend their time on facebook and random sites on the internet. Only thing i have found anoying is people who makes noices/Talk silently during the lectures.

hm, that's imo wrong. Depending on the layout of your classrooms and where you're located you have to see the person playing games when you look to the lecturer. And if your left eye sees explosions every 3s that catches at least some attention. That's annoying as hell for someone with a short concentration span.
