I'm well aware this is a touchy question, but are there any gamers on this forum who are openly geeky/dorky/fanboyish/otaku like? I am an über-geek and Daiotaku, no question, and curiosity struck me because classic gaming is becoming alot more mainstream, and those with less geeky tendencies come to these forums (not that theres anything wrong with that). I was just wondering what the geek-to-non-geek ratio was on here.
(Pleeeeaaase dont ban me ^_____^)

I guess I'm a little nerdy. And when it comes to my favourites I can be a fanboy and weird otaku, too. So fear not, your not alone. 8)

I can't remember the last time something on a forum made me smile and chuckle genuinely. i'm a nerd, but i don't think i'm a geek.

Actually, not all was thinking. Some was plotting, some was planning, and finally the explaining of my plan which I plotted after I thought of it.

Try to read through some definitions on the urban dictionary. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=geekhttp://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=nerdBasically nerds are more intelligent than geeks. Or that's what I thought...

Yeah, that's what I thought as well. Also that nerds were particulary interested in a subject, normally Star Trek. :lol: Geeks, as I viewed them, were very similar to the term "nerd", unable to get chicks and wear the same clothes. As you said, manuel, nerds were always more intersted in schoolwork, and did it pretty well. For the geeks, this wasn't necessarily true. Well, that's the stereotypical view anyway...
