StaceyPowers Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I’ve discovered you can learn a lot about a person by watching them game, especially if they are frustrated. For example, I was watching a friend raging while trying to get around an obstacle course in a game he was relatively new to. He kept raging about an obstacle he was having a hard time with, which was resulting in him falling and having to do the whole course over. But he didn’t notice that he was learning quickly and getting past previous obstacles in the course almost without effort that were driving him crazy before. It made me realize a lot of his anger results from where he puts his attention, and failing to notice his own growth.

Heatman Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Well, it's a very very fact that someone who's got quite a bit of high temperament is definitely going to have it manifest whenever he's playing aggressive games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 This is just a scenario but they may act completely different in real-life situations. For instance, in games I tend to be somewhat impatient whereas if I want to achieve anything worthwhile, I have to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 When I was 13 I saw a girl I liked swearing up a storm because she was losing at a game. How she didn't get tossed from that Toys 'R Us is a mystery to me. Withywarlock and killamch89 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly - I believe that there are some gaming actions and decisions that can't be linked to one's real life behavior because it's practically two different phases of operation.

Head_Hunter Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Well said, the user doesn't know as he is going, he is learning. If he is eager to take it high, then he should always be strong during failures and learn what caused him failures never to repeat it anymore.

Family sedan Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 She was swearing in the store. It was 1997 and morals were a bit tighter back then, even if only by a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Lol, that's a hilarious moment dear. She never loved to encounter loss in a game that's why she was swearing. And what did you say to her after learning what made her swearing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head_Hunter Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 And again of we want to learn something great around gambling on a particular game option, then we should pay attention much to the gamer to learn the tricks he's using.

Well that at least offsets some of the impact of her actions but where were her parents? 33 minutes ago, Heatman said: Well, it most certainly would have been a very frustrating thing for her that very day for her to behave in such manner. There's something called public etiquette and some of the kids growing up weren't taught that by their parents/guardians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
