Acceptable Hobby Targets: Difference between revisions

Especially stuff like ''[[World of Warcraft]]'', which is the biggest target. For some reason, partly due to [[New Media Are Evil]], it's seemingly perfectly acceptable to blame any addictions to online games as the fault of the game itself - whereas doing this for just about anything else (namely blaming the murder on the ''murder weapon'' and not the ''murderer'') usually results with people not taking it seriously.

 

* The [[Fan Hater]]s will have you believe everyone who plays ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' is a min-maxer or one of the hardcore raiders which [[Even Nerds Have Standards|some of the players themselves hate]].

** It doesn't help that the ones who ''are'' hardcore [["Stop Having Fun!" Guys]] min-maxers who call everyone who isn't a "noob," and will heap obscene amounts of venom on anyone who doesn't ''want'' to sqeeze every last iota of DPS out of their gear/gems/enchants/talents/rotation.
