'be' with people? I really want to chastise you for that, but sadly I know exactly what you mean. oddly enough, I know several very socially apt individuals (including myself, i like to think) with similar afflictions. Id go outside and walk to the park now to clear that bit of digital degerneracy from my head, but i have to check just a few more Posts first...

What I mean by 'be' with other people is 'play games with something other than an AI.'

Actually, I'm not much of a social type. I'd rather read a book than watch a sporting event, and I stopped nipping down to the local pub some time ago because I just cant stand listening to nearby loudmouths yapping on their cellphones.

When your interests trend toward things like experimental music, history, etc, it's kind of hard to find people to hang out with other than virtually...

thats what I meant too. sorry, i did not mean to insinuate any sort of propensity for, umm, Online intimacy. I usually tend towards dive bars where the yuppies on cellphones are affraid to hang out after dark, and I find that most of my friends are interested in history and experimental music as well.

Those Online people have to hang out somewhere in real life, i guess it just helps that my friends are all geeks. never the less, we all spend far too much time socializing Online. like me, right now.

Age 32. US Navy pilot for the Last 10 years. Funny how many folks here have an engineering/computer background. Have a Computer Science Engineering Degree dated 1991 that I've never used. Enjoyed games since the late 70's. D&D, Panzer Leader, Squad Leader, AH games - you name it I played it. Apple II games also. North Atlantic, RDF. Enjoy SEIV, Civ II (waiting for III), MOO2, Baldur's Gate II right now.
