Camping outside Best Buy for a ps3, how pathetic. I wish I had brought my camera to capture the moment. I wonder what would have happened if I had said something like PS3 SUX, or Screw Sony! Probably nothing since those nerds were probably as strong as gaggle of meatlumps strung out on hawtpockets.  Oh and I didn't see ANY SWG boxes at that store to hide. image

    Call me a nerd if you want to, but I camped out at a wal-mart for 14 hours to get one. It sold on Ebay for $1750.00us, can you make that kind of money in 14 hours? I didn't think so..image I might be a nerd but I made $1150.00 in one day, doing nothing.

    BTW I'm 6'4" and 290lbs, come yell at me and see what happens.image

    There are a *lot* of people that can make a grand with 14 hours of their time ... coincidentally, most of them also do it by preying on stupid people with too much disposable income ....

    You made 82 dollars an hour.  Most technical consulting companies and design charge about that for work.  I assume you also had to miss a day of work or either way it cost you 14 hours of your time which you normally get how much an hour?  Just some food for thought.

    You did something, you stood in line and bought and sold a product.  Doing nothing implies literally doing nothing or sleeping.  My 401k is me doing nothing, although sometimes I do move funds around.  I dont see the money, it is automatically deducted, the money goes where I pre-designated.  Yes I can earn 1150.00 dollars in one day doing nothing and I can do it regularly can you?

    I would suggest you learn a better way to make money then a 1 time flash in the pan.   

    I am just giving you some crap but nice work on ripping off some guy with to much money. 

    P.S. I am Nine Feet Tall and 400 lbs and I have super power!

    I am not sure how people camping out to get a PS3 are nerdy. That to me would tell me how highly successful a product is. And plus, what’s more nerdy, a person who camps out to get first dibs on a very successful gaming consol, or someone who sits on a computer for hours on end role playing a fantasy life, LMAO, its kind of calling the kettle black (I think that is how that old saying goes LOL). Bring it on down now.

    Damn byotch dat aint no friggn moon fool, dat be a friggn space station byotch.

    We all have nerdy tendencies but these were harcore nerds. I think I even heard one snort. Either way, fuck Sony.

    I think playing MMOs and filling time posting on forums is nerdy. Yes I am calling myself nerdy and I'm fine with that.

    Oh and I'm only 5'9 and 165 but I'm a division 1 swimmer. Due to the fact that I train for about 18 hours a week (plus meets on weekends) I'm going to say I'm in better shape then at least 85% of this forum.... but I'm still a huge nerd when it comes to video games.  What I'm getting at is that your size/weight means very little to anybody, especially when you use all that size/weight to post on SWG Vet forums... image

    It never ceases to amaze me how many bodybuilders one can find from gaming forums. I'm willing to bet that if questioned, about half of this community would be bodybuilders/athleets. Simply amazing.

    Well I didn't have control over who bid on my auction, and I'm sure some of those 15 and 20k auctions will never be paid. I didn't even want a ps3 I have a 360 and love it.
    I work in construction and get laid off every winter, so the money will come in handy.
    To the OP there were some very nerdy guys in line with me so I do know what you're sayingimage I was doing it to make money so I could give my kids a better christmas, I'm a good Dad.image

    Get over yourself already; you obviously have a pretty low self esteem if you feel this incessant need to hype yourself up to what you aren’t, otherwise no offense would have been taken in the beginning. Tell ya what, take a drive out to hilltop area in Tacoma and tell all those guys how tuff ya are. The thread’s intention was for a good laugh, stop crying just because you feel my nerd comment targeted you when it didn’t.

    Of course we all have nerdy tendencies; heck nerdy tendencies get you laid by some of the best looking women around. But hardcore nerds, yea sure why not and what is different from a hardcore nerd compared to a hardcore MMO player. Calling people nerdy because they camp out to get first dibs to buy a computer consol is sort of hypocritical when players who played SWG still act as if their whole Role Playing lives have been shattered because of a change to their video game a year later. Please, what is more Nerdy a guy camping out for a gaming consol or the “SOE you ruined my game” a year later LMAO. Bring it on down now.

    Damn byotch dat aint no friggn moon fool, dat be a friggn space station byotch.

    These boards are full of people so wealthy, they laugh at $1100...

    And $82 an hour is a nice salary. Really nice. Depending on various other aspects, that's about $150k a year.

    To translate that. You're getting paid a very senior engineer's salary for sitting in a chair and sleeping. I thought only air traffic controllers work like that...

    If you are reading this you are probably a nerd.  Don't take it personally.

    If you camped outside a store for a game machine you are definitely a nerd.  But probably a nerd with some more $$$ so  whatever...

    Everyone likes something a lot. I personally love video games and if I had the money, the time off and a buddy who wanted one who had those things too, I might have camped out to get a PS3. Fact is you're on a video game website in the "I love the old SWG" forum talking about hiding SWG boxes and calling anyone else a nerd? Are you nerdy enough to see the intense irony there?

    No offense intended at all and I'm sure you're a great person, but you took the time out of your life to point a finger. I just had to remind you of the 3 pointing right back at you.

    Dude I've been joking the whole time, get over yourself. You hang out on a MMO forum all day and night and you think you have the right to call other people nerds?lmao!!
    Anyway learn to take a joke noob.

    Listen, you might think your big shit over at the "other" forums Vanive Talon but I was just replying to your spam thread here in the vet forums. Oh by the way this thread is waaaay off topic and shouldn't even be here but I'm not a forum mod so I really don't care.
    I didn't threaten you, I was just joking, you were the one saying how wimpy the nerds were. I was just making a joke to the other effect. Anyway who cares what you think.image

    I agree with MMO_Man, I read the whole thread and I could tell he was joking around. I also find it funny that a guy who posts on swg forums day and night *tillamook cough* would call other people nerds. Yes I'm also a member at rlmmo (under another name) and it's the most nerd filled forum I've ever seen. Post after post of "I have some top secret info but I can't reveil it here..pm me" type of crap. I just go there to get a good laugh. Oh and one of guys over the had some "top secret" info the other day that something major was going to happen in 10 dayus!! Woooo!!! I can't wait!!! LMFAO!
