[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 9233252, member: 6684958"] Well, much like an expert in other things: someone with deep knowledge about the game, it's rules, it's history and such. Real life experience is important in social activities like games. It depends on the person. Many people do see games as a casual waste to time. They get together to relax, goof off, tell stories, watch you tube, act dumb....oh, and maybe kind of sort of play a bit of a game for a couple minutes. Like over the holidays at a get together. One of the girls got Barbie Monopoly. So all the girls gather on the living room floor and sort of play the game.....for eleven minutes. Then they run off to do something else leaving the game right there on the floor. Only minutes later mom walks in the living room and teps on the game board sending money and houses flying everywhere. Fun fun fun! Of course, there are us other people that take games more serious. We don't play the game to goof around and occasionally drop some dice. We play for the thrill, the challenge and more deep things. Well, no, why would I? Most posters online, like most gamers in real life, think basicaly all the same things about everything. I walk a different path. You don't think it takes any skill to play a game like D&D? That is just pure crazy. [/QUOTE]
