A World For Ourselves

Well, most of you won't know what this really means, but if u're a real blogger, or a real gamer, u might understand this term well. Ever heard of a highly-addicted gamer died because of playing Doom II.? Ever heard of geeks who disconnect themselves from the real world to chat in the ICQ and IRC?

That's what the term means. And uniquely, there will be times for everyone in the world to felt it, or should I say came across with it. Geeks usually doesn't care much about this since they have their own community, but social and active people, if by any chance are disconnected from the real world, well, they are all by themselves, and the worst thing is they might not even be connected with anyone.

Me ? Well, I suffered that a lot of times. Where nobody actually cared for me, where nobody commented,criticized me. And when that happened to me, well, honestly, I'm still grateful that I have friends in the forums that I joined, who knows how to make people laughter (though laughter might transform to something worse, actually), who cared for each and everyone of the users, no matter what they look like, no matter what shoes they wore, no matter their income, coz' they're all like siblings, brothers and sisters in their own world, forum.

Some others would get disconnected from the world and play games all the night (well, I did that once in the past) when they felt alone, not needed by anyone. Well, i've seen these kind of people as well. Ever heard of DoTA ? Well, it's not that I condemned the game, but I've seen lives which were 'killed' because of the game. From socio kind of person to become a very timid, passive person who spends most of his time playing DoTA. Some even ask their room mate to buy their meals. It's as if their hands are sticked to the keyboard, their eyes are locked to the PC screen. Their soul died within the game. Well, I've been through all of it. Not only DoTA, but any kind of games. Like the example I gave in the first place about Doom II, how a gamer killed himself due to the game. Well, perhaps games really corrupt us, yet we play games, yet I play games too!
