I guess this is the venue for asking that!

Does anyone play any MMOs in here? I myself played Lotro for years, and am waiting in vain for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

We can help each other be motivated to get out of our chairs after a raid and go run around the block, right? :)

    I play MMOs, mainly the F2P ones though. I've never played WoW because I didn't like the look of it.

    Yay! I'm not alone! lol
  • Hell yes! I play a little of everything. :) I like this shared motivation idea! When I'm procrastinating on exercise or anything else, it tends to be social gaming that I turn to.

    Yep. I'm pretty sure the main reason I got to 220 lbs was because I got so into playing that I'd forget to eat, then when I did it all got stored from starvation mode. It's kind of hard to eat and play when you're healing people though. :tongue:

    I used to play WoW a lot but kind of stopped since I had my little one. Tried again recently but I'm not that much into it anymore!

    No....I'm a gamer...but I HATE MMO's.

    But I DO LOVE RPG's. Grew up on Final Fantasy.

    Currently been playing alot of FPS though, not online, just not a big fan of it.

    Going through Homefront now, just finished up Mafia II, and also going through the New Vegas DLC's.

    As somebody studying personal fitness and nutrition... this is a crock of .....:D
    I got fat playing MMOs because being sat at a PC for most of the day / night sadly doesn't burn any calories, and was living off snacks and microwave food (high in calories) - these days I don't touch a microwave (apart from making microwavable rice!).

    But yes, gamer here. Used to play WoW for several years and podcasted about it, I also used to play SCII at lot. LoL is my current vice but I cannot *wait* for Star Wars. SITH SIDE YO.

    What???!!!! No-one plays Tribal Wars here?
    Too addictive - game has to be monitored and managed instead of sleep, work, cooking .... etc etc etc
    At the moment I am going complete cold turkey. I think its like chocolate - if I have even one taste of it I will be completely hooked and lost to the real world for at least another year.

    Eventually, after the heat of battle, I would raise my eyes again, and notice to my horror that my house looks like a rat next and I have put on a few stone putting me right back into the obese category.

    No, I dare not go back ... but :frown: .... now you have mentioned it, the thought is sorely tempting :( .........

    my partner used to play sw galaxies. I've been hearing about swtor for two years now. Preparing myself for months of zero conversation when it is finally released.

    Well, that's how I figured it since I never really ate that much. I would sit and play sometimes for 12 hours at a time, both for console rpgs and mmos, then when I took breaks I may have something like a granola bar or turkey sandwich or microwave popcorn (94% fat free kettle corn). I didn't really eat many high calorie foods and I only drink diet soda and low calorie energy drinks.
