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.

Did anybody see this already? The people of gamescom themselves made a commenton their facebook presence. They want to investigate if the report breaks any rules of journalism. Meanwhile people who are outraged are advised to file complains against RTL.
I just love video games, what's your excuse?

I will never understand why people in general care so much about what others think about them. Going around worrying what others think about you must be exhausting. The only thing you need to know is that time is on our side. Views like these will soon disappear because playing games will be become as commonplace as watching TV. In the mean time you should stop caring so much about how you're perceived by others, it's a big waste of time.

I don't know whether it has been posted, but on 20min.ch, the biggest newspaper in switzerland, there's been a big article on the topic:
http://www.20min.ch/digital/games/story/RTL--das-Blossstell-Fernsehen-22279015

They're basically re-bashing RTL a bit, but in a mannered way.

The reactions on the RTL-Report are huge.

Anonymous warned RTL, there are music vids and official's statements.

good job, community

It limits the growth of ESPORTS as a business model if people think it's a joke. It's ruining ESPORTS. ESPORTS.

Wow, that was insulting. The sad part is that i feel like the majority of the non-gamers think like that. The worst is when most of the media covers gaming pretty much like this, brainwashing all of those too lazy to question themselves. All this labels people put on each other, just adds to the shallowness of the society.

Its sickening really...

I was actually very impressed by video, when I watched it with subtitles.

"I am, like I am" said the long hair dude, and he really hits the spot right there - maybe people shouldn't run around looking for the approval of TV and (insert name of random female student whose apparent job is to look pretty). Maybe, just maybe, it's not the gamers that should take a long look at themselves.

I study mathematics, so I generally have to deal with a lot of stereotypes (it ranges from "mathematicians aren't capable of eating aesthetically" to "mathematicians like to fuck sheep"). The best way I have discovered for dealing with this, is simply keeping calm and carrying on I don't know why stereotypes exist, but as long as one keeps on proving that they are false, one does the right thing imo.

People care because a completly diverse group of people gets demonized as smelly losers. RTL is not some shitty program, but a shitty program millions of people watch.

That's crazy, I have sex all the time! (Granted it is with myself, and I have to hold my breath to avoid smelling myself during the process - but still!)

No, thats simply not true. It's a random tv show, with gamers shown that really are how they described them. If anybody thinks that all gamers are like that, just because of this article, he is certainly not part of the society.

But the thing is that they are talking about gamers in general.. its the same as saying that all germans are rude assholes, making a video, and show 2 rude germans in it.... It would upset the germans aswell. because they arent like that.. it's maybe 0,005% of them.. the same with gamers..

If they wanted to make a real, neutral vid, they would have interviewed "normal" looking people aswell... and i've been there, and most of the people were just "normal"..

Of course that is true...People which are not involved in the scene will believe this because they have no in-depth look at it...It just gives a wrong picture about a growing community, which could have a negative effect on it!

I like a lot, that it's not just the Germans that get angry. We got a huge German speaking community in Europa so that German, Austrian and Swiss gamers will respond and a lot of Dutch, Danish, Belgian etc as well. They really hit the jackpot with that report.
