more and more i start to hate that Nerd expression. People that are used to esports seem to be proud of it, just because they know what it means to be passionated about these great games - especially sc2 but esports in general. The people that dont know esports at all just take it as an expression for other people that "have no friends", "are into a useless thing", "barely wash" - to keep simple: they dont understand because all their presumptions are entirely wrong. I wonder if TV had the same status when it was first introduced which i see as "more people doing it", "less communicative", "equally entertaining". Or football? I really dont get why gaming was getting a kind of subculture. Why there is this feel of shame about telling people that you are interested in playing/watching games? And this feel of relief occurs when you find out that the one you rarely know is also a gamer and you are allowed to nerd-talk? Last thing, i feel like its time for science to research the subculture of gaming in other ways than aggression felt during first person shooter games! Good talk although you were a bit nervous it seems. But its time for nerds to liberate and it's a good thing to start it this way! | ||

It was very nerve racking but such an amazing opportunity to share my passion for the StarCraft and eSports community. I did a general overview of StarCraft and eSports and how it has effected my life. Hope you guys enjoy it, and feel free to leave your honest comments. *affected :D affect = verb or you could say "had an effect." effect = noun | ||
