Why do you care about people who obviously have less of a life than you?
Yeah, if you're good at a game you MUST have less of a life from someone who could actually just be bad at a game.

You really shouldn't worry about this sort of thing. Don't you see that it is making you frustrated and unsatisfied inside? Come on, even if you are good enough to be that place on the leaderboards you should stop, you will feel much better believe me, once you stop worrying about being better than others you will feel less stressed, as if a great burden has been lifted off you. Just play games for their original purpose: TO HAVE FUN.

I only really care about friends leaderboards, and only if its in a game that i actually care about.

Although from time to time i get really angry with Rockband when it doesnt upload my score most the time and occasionally uploads a poor score making me look really bad instead of my 99% score or somethin

You don't have to bother with leaderboards. It's basically who has played the game the longest. Maybe you should try single player for a while, that's what I did and I am having alot more fun then when I bothered in multiplayer. In real life and in game experience.

At least that's what I think to myself as they pound my face into the dirt.
I know a guy like this. His plans for the holidays are "Play MW2".
Do I happen to know you from somewhere?

I excel at everything I do that is not artistic in nature, and I have art monkeys to do that for me.
You certainly don't excel at making people feel better about thier indadequacies as gamers.

Freud might say it's because you didn't play with your penis enough. I don't know. I am not Freud so I'll say you should really focus on more productive things than getting on a leader board.
actually freud would ask how the relation with your mom was.

it would be Lombroso to tell you to masturbate more.(sociobiology)

and i'm so happy that i know this because i have examination about this soon.

Isn't it because you're closer to your mum because you're afraid that your dad would chop your penis off?.

It's a direct correlation to the size of your penis, or so I hear.

Ignoring that undeniable research however, if someone's completely dominating you (not like that, sicko's) you're quite likely to feel like you are shit.

Not really. No matter how much you/me/this guy who made this thread will play a game, we will never beat those ''elite'' gamers. They have a talent at gaming.
I play zombie panic pretty much, almost everyday for hours, i seem to be barely Nr.1. after coming from school(15:00), and i still seem to die when those talented players come in the server after work(17:00).

No yes I know, I believe he did come up with that theory though. I am not certain of the order, but I know (or have heard) he postulated that girls are attached to their fathers because they have penises and girls want what they don't have. While boys are closer to their mothers because they are afraid their father wants to chop their jiblets off.

Only in psychology will this shit be taken seriously.

Thanks to those of you who are being supportive, I guess I just needed a moral boost. And to the rest of you, thanks for the laugh.
P.S. The game's TF2.

Okay seriously. Does anyone see what I'm trying to do here?

Honestly. Using a common stereotype to help someone who's feeling a bit down about themselves feel a bit better. Such a crime. Why all the hate, guys? This site seems (almost) full of people who only come on here just to chastise others instead of thinking about what they're actually trying to say. I'm not as dumb as you think I am. Get off your highhorses and stop trying to sound good by talking others down, please.

I'm with teh_pwning_dude on this one, I mean really what the fuck.
Thanks man, I appreciate it.
By using this "common stereotype" you are discounting one's skill and just saying they get to the top because they have more time to play. It is like saying Leonardo wasn't a skilled painter he just had more time to paint than everyone else.

By lifting up one you have put down alot of others.

That is because the inadequate should be aware of their inadequacies so they can better themselves.

Just remember that game is pretty much all that person does and laugh at them. For me I just simply try and have more kills than deaths and I do fairly well.

Sweet my first time being ninja'd
Most people don't like being ninja'd also awesome avatar.

OT: I don't much care for my rank, I'm not all that competitive. I tend to play co op games where you work together rather than compete. I prefer having fun than straining to be the best. I love when I can't string my sentences together to save my life.

And here I was going to offer to do a more up-to-date version of your avatar since I've improved. 'Art Monkey'...
Actually I kind of like the sound of that. It makes me feel like I can just throw poo at my tablet.

He's already aware, and you boasting about your skill will just make him feel worse.

I'm sure you don't mean to be mean, it's just a little... insensitive, that's all.

Some people are just not naturally gifted, no matter how much they practice. It can make them feel bad sometimes... (cries)
