Do people who read books, call themselves bookers?
Do people who watch TV, call themselves tvers?
Do people who listen music, call themselves musicers?
Do people who eat lunch, call themselves lunchers?

No, because that would be stupid.
>>
>>376446470
I don't play basketball anymore but I'm still a balla.
>>
>>376446470
B-b-but gaming is like a sport football has footballers so games having gamers makes sense
>>
>>376446470
Do people who work call themselves workers?
Do people who teach call themselves teachers?
Do people who are fags call themselves faggots?
>>
>>376443751
no
>>
>>376446451
It's mainly guilt by association. I don't want to look like a fucking loser.
>>
>>376446470
thats just because those terms dont exist, since there was never a need to find other people that did those

if you consider yourself a gamer you'll more easily find other people that enjoy the same stuff you do
>>
>>376446739
If you really think your hobby is the defining feature of your life, that you can be described by your interest in a passtime, then have at it
>>
>>376446470
What word do you propose to call someone who likes to plays video games?

People who like to read books call themselves readers, or book worms.

People who like watch TV are called viewers or couch potatos.

A music lover lacks an overall term but many of the genre of music have words to describe them.

A person who enjoys lunch and eating might call themselves a foodie.
>>
Fuck no
>>
>>376443751
Jesus fuck no,
>>
>>376446329
you a musicer too?
>>
>>376447220
If all they do is play video games and it's the defining characteristic of their life then call them a gamer, otherwise they are a person who likes video games

Youre missing the point, none of those is as bad as being called a gaymer
>>
>>376447434
if i listen to someone else's music im not a "musicer", im a fan
if i do music, im a musician
>>
>>376443751
Why would I define my self by my hobby? if it was my job sure but otherwise I don't see the point
>>
>>376444976
(You)
>>
>>376447585
and if you play video games you're a fan
if you make video games you're a videogame developer
>>
Just call yourself a Vidya Boy
>>
>>376447149
Uhh what? Then what do you want to be your "defining feature of life"? Your race? Sex? If someone work u call that someone a WORKER

"Ey worker how u doing?"
With that real life example I win this discussion


Have a nice night fag
>>
>>376447627
This.

What's the point of labeling yourself based on what you do for fun, unless you're some sort of attention whore looking to fit in a social circle.

People who play video games are "fucking faggots", and you should address them as such.

But if someone else calls me that, I don't really pay any mind.

You can keep living in a bubble dude, but when people hear you are a "gamer" or play videogames, stereotypes start popping into their head of the kind of person you are. Mainly that you're probably a loser with no life. While it may be true it's better for them not to be so sure about it, so I never let anyone know I play videogames. Especially If you're an adult.

your interests are part of your own identity
identification with a social group is just a way to make up for something you lack
