You're in a bad group and instead of having to go through the trials and tribulations of having to say good bye, you just alt + f4 or reset your system that your 'cable' went out or modem fried.

EDIT: Feel free to add to the list :D

    You immediately know if your internet connection went down, because you can't activate your armor repairer (eve online).

    The first words out of your mouth after finding your internet connection went down usually include 4 letters and can't be said on most forums.

    You can do all of your christmas shopping at Lowes or the Home Depot. (wait, that's redneck..)

    Now with 57.3% more flames!

    You spend more time waiting for a group than actually being in it. ::::28::

    You spend 15 hours a day playing a game then say it has "no content" and "it sucks"

    o_O 15 hours a day? If that was true, 8 hours for sleep (unless you live on Bawls or something) and 1 hour for what.. eating..? Their real life needs to be upgraded thusly.

    you see someone get killed on TV or a movie and your first thought is "I wonder if he had good loot"

    You actually say "laugh out loud" in RL.... oops

    you get very PO'd at a game, end up quitting it, and then finding yourself reading the forums for that game on a daily basis.

    You get up off your computer to go to the bar, but go to the bar with the people you were playing with and continue the conversation you were having ingame when you all get there.

    ...you refer to your wife's RL nagging in game as, "Sry, gtg, wife aggro, con'ing red tonight"...

    Everytime you go on Vaction your first though when getting off the plane is I wonder how my Faction standing is here?

    You randomly start dancing like the Night Elves from WoW in the middle of the school quad with your friends.

    You try to rez your friend sleeping on the park bench.

    You line draw strategic battle plans for you and your friends to take to rush the Professor with minimal damage.

    You randomly look around for resource nodes while traveling between classes.

    haha been there with the armour repair one >_> ..followed by the spam of error messages.

     

    Well for me: ... when you start to dream about gettin podded

    when you wake up at 3am in a sweat and realise you forgot to set a skill

     

    when your alarm clock revolves around eve skill changes

     

    (eve online)

    Done that EVE thing too...

    You turn on the game when you get home before you take your shoes off.

    When you think the 50 lbs of weight gain you have acquired in the past 3 years gaming is actually more hit points.

    You purposefully get into an argument with your g/f so she won't want to go out that night, and you can level up.

    You call the customers who come into where you work "noobs" for asking questions like "Where's the bathroom?"

    Your friends stop calling you by your real name, and start calling you by your ingame name.

    Your last "serious relationship" ended when your gamecard expired.

    When your character gets hungry or thirsty in game and you realize that you ARE in real life, hungry and thirsty. (Which was oblivious to you before)

    When you kill a bug in RL and wonder how much exp it would have been worth in game.

    When you have the time to harrass the noobs by killing all the noob-monsters preventing the noobs from gaining any exp or items.

  • patheospatheos Member Posts: 1,148

    you ask someone in RL what lvl they are.

    when you set up a stand in the school yard and try to sell (insert item here).

    when someone makes a joke about you and you call them a noob.

    if someone hits you in the hallway and you have your psp with you, and you run away in fear because they could loot it.

    you drop your trash and come back later, wondering why it hasnt disappeared.

    the majority of your dreams are about your mmorpg.

    you tell your parents at the dinnner table "i just found an elite rare +1 battle axe of the pheonix, but then i got ganked, so now i need to go kill that noob, can i be excused?"

    When you buy a cordless keyboard and build a bathroom in the basement with a hole in the door to see the screen. 

    (Thought about doing this once)

    -After you change the oil in your car you wonder how high your mechanic skill is

    -When another car cuts infront of you, you scream out to him, "you stupid noob! didn't you take the tutorial?"

    -When you run out of change in your wallet you say to yourself, or outloud, " Damn I need more plat!"

  • MuraisMurais Member UncommonPosts: 1,118

    I have a bad habit of pronouncing web-language and using it in RL.

    lol= 'lawl"
    rofl = "roffle"
    pwned = "pooned" (that one gets looks)

    etc...

    You might be an MMO player if you care more about how your armor matches than your RL clothes!! I'm guilty of that one, I always gotta look cool in game ::::31::
