Still Want to Contribute to eSports

c0ldwinter United States238 Posts April 18 2013 02:07 GMT #1 Me and my brother are both facing gaming addiction and its symptoms are noticeable. We skip classes to play Starcraft or League of Legends. I want to stop playing the game. But I also want to continue to be part of the eSports community and scene. So, what can I do to make an impact in the community, but not spend too much time playing the game itself or watching streams. Thanks.

(or this: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=401294) There you will find an excellent guide written by a prominent member of the community that details what you can do to give a helping hand around here. If memory serves it was featured for a time due to its high quality.

It could be as simple as looking at the talents you have now, or it could build up from the passion you have for the games. That wasn't very flattering to say, but there isn't anything truer that i could say. While i suffered from gaming addiction (and still do in some parts) i became a top-end player at what i wanted stick to playing, and tried to achieve everything i could hope to experience from that. The addiction (or mass-gaming) happens for many reasons (potentially). Without going too much into the details, contributing can be as simple as being a -rad- guy in this community.. producing nice content, shits & giggles, or sharing your experiences and commenting on your everyday things. Without the niche or position, you can still contribute or improve upon your knowledge of the game by doing different kinds of analysis. Streaming has blown up, and it may seem as though it can be easy with time to be a prominent name through it. It doesn't really matter in the end, I hope you continue to enjoy your time here and feel as though there wasn't any regret with gaming.
