Congratulations on reaching this thread. In the rare event that you are in grandmasters league, have a scorching hot girlfriend, and somehow avoided the terrible stench of being a gamer, please refrain from telling us about it. The 10 pages of people informing us that they do, in fact, have sex should provide enough of a counterexample to any non-believers.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Well, it's clear....my new Role Model is a 23 y/o woman who gets paid to look pretty and pose pretending to kiss men she doesn't know.

That seems like a much better life choice than a Finance Master's Degree, Sports and Hobbies I enjoy.

I think it's a funny little clip, I can't get the real 'tone' of it since its in German, but it doesn't strike me as especially scathing.

lol this exactly - angry nerds and the internet is a dangerous combo

Normally they do indeed only choose groups, or people that are NOT closely connected with one another. Unemployed people is the perfect example. Every unemployed is unemployed "by himself" (unless a huge factory just got closed), RTL can make fun of them without having to be afraid of much consequences. There won't be an uproar in the "unemployed community". Gamers, however, form a pretty tight network nowadays - I'm sure RTL to some extent underestimated the shitstorm that this would start.

Not really, people also get offended when you stereotype them in an outrageous and untrue manner, like so.

Also "gaming" isn't anymore something only nerds too. Everyone has a console at home, plays on his mobile phone etc. It's a booming industry, RTL probably also upset a large part of casual gamers. There were 60.000 people at gamescon, that's huuuuge.

Making fun of people is often times the most fun thing there is IMO! I love joking about white people for instance. And I´m white!

a short statement from RTL click me (german)

basicly something along the lines "We're sorry, what the editor posted on fb was his own opinion and has nothing to do with rtl. We did not intend to offend someone however if we ended up doing so we're sorry"
<Elem> >toad in charge of judging lewdness <Elem> how bad can it be <Elem> also wew, that is actually p lewd.

mmmm german free tv got boring a while ago. Unless you like fake reality shows 24/7. And i thought talk shows would be bad.

In the end, german tv is as meh as the politicians here. But i guess everyone in the world is having the same issues x3. Except switzerland xD

Funny because the state owned television channels are all really decent and except for a few others the only watchable stations. Especially ZDF, their digital channels(zdf kultur broadcasting sc2 ), and associated channels like ARTE, 3sat, Pheonix, where you actually learn something instead of losing and IQ point for every hour you watch

I meant it more in the finger-pointing way where you're not talking to the person you're making fun of, but he/she can still hear it.

There will be an official investigation about the show. I don't think it will lead to anything, but at least the authorities take it seriously.

Does gamecity fail at quoting or is GC unable to write in proper German?

Edit: PCGames link works. gamecity fails at quoting.

The worse you smell, the higher your APM is. I thought this was a widely regarded fact.

Seriously, these things don't bother me. Ignorance is easily ignored.

i like the update saying that it was all a joke. u cant really blame poeple for taking an article from germany seriously, after all a study found them to be the least humerous nation. i will definitely say that some gamers do smell and have no life, but on the other hand there are obviously clean respectable members of society that game. i feel gamers span the whole spectrum of social edicate/cleanliness which is why we are a great comunity.

I assume you don't speak german and have not watched the video with subs?

ur right!
but this report says that all gamers smell, are ugly, stupid and so on! this includes you and everyone else in the whole gaaming community. No exceptions made!

No one seems to care about social aspects of gaming! I guess there was no TV show about TLO´s or Sheth´s 24hour benefit streaming for Dw/oB.
This is just discriminatory and misanthropic! Hope the editor will lose his job!
