And that's okay you think it's dumb.. as I said earlier older members may not understand the value in it. 

Dude, I am your age not some old foggy. I just think it's dumb AF is all. Yes, I like to play RPGs but I am not going to revolve my way of thinking or my life around them at all. I gave that up of doing that when I had kids and made my family a priority in my life.

You mean Toledo?  Not quite as dilapidated as the area around Detroit, but still pretty bad.  I know De-twa has more drugs, crime, and killings, but Toledo ain’t a whole heap better.

 

If you want to get an idea of how much better life can be, leave the area completely.  Move to GA (not Atlanta) or AL (not Birmingham) or AR (not Little Rock) and see that there exists a life outside a crime-ridden area.

 

And if you REALLY want an eye-opening experience, research for yourself the top 20 cities with the most crime, and check out which color they are.  I promise, you WILL see the pattern, even if you won’t admit it.

No, I mean all of northern Ohio ranging from Toledo to Cleveland.

Why is it assumed that someone older may not understand?  Seems a bit ageist to me.

Again, it's a younger generational thing. 

At first I didn't understand until my brothers showed me the value in it.

Like any fad, it is only valuable if people use it or buy it.

Ok, I agree with you there. I am a older Millenial(34) and there are some stuff I see the younger ones do where I am ####### Over.

Because thats litterally how it works.. like how my parents had a hard time understanding why I used to play Halo with my friend for hours online as opposed just hanging out with them in person. 

 

The next generation is just evolving from what we did..

Doesn’t mean it is better, or progress.

Nothing wrong with that.

It's only going to get worse as we age. 

Just like hip hop lol.

I think people that stream their videos or make videos of them playing RPGs are stupid just like I think that the people watching them are freaking dumb as well.

A lot of Americans watch sports.  Are they freaking dumb as well?  If not, what's the difference?

he family said she was upset with recent changes to YouTube that decreased money she earned from posting videos to the website.

Fauria Aghdam broke down in tears during the interview, as Thursday would have been her daughter's 39th birthday.

Ismail and Fauria Aghdam filed a missing persons report last weekend when Nasim disappeared. Police found her sleeping in her car around 2 a.m. on the day of the shooting.

Her brother told police he was worried she might be up to something.

@Boiler, please stick to this thread's topic, which has evolved to old-school video gaming.

True

Just like in politics everything is not black, white and simple.

But...

It is progress for the gaming industry and it's overall bottom line.

I watch sports as well and I like it. But to sit there and watch a video of someone playing a game online is STUPID. I have watched people playing it live before and that's ok because your in the room feeding off of the emotion but online is a big #######.
