TOG - The Older Gamers

Deepair04 · 25th July 2006, 12:28 PM

Hello everyone,

A friend of mine told me about your site for gamers who are a little older than the greater percentage, and has raved about it. I am 35 years old(birthdate is 09/16/1970) and have been trying out different online games for about 4-5 years. Most games that I have played online have been the Delta Force series, and Nascar

. I did play Galaxies for a little while, but was bored with some of the interaction

. I like the role playing games, as well as sports(football, racing); also strategy(Ages), and combat flight simulator games.
At the moment, I enjoy playing WOW

--hooked on it by a couple friends. I try to play when I can--times vary due to work schedule; which most people can relate to. I have read the Faq and the Aup; which I agree with--some gaming comunities appear not to have guidelines to protect and keep gaming enjoyable. I have been playing WOW for about 8 months; in which I have played with some interesting people, but also some scams--all they want is freebies from other gamers.
As for my hobbies, family, etc.; I have a fiance(of whom thinks I'm nuts for playing WOW as much as I do

): she has 2 children 18 & older. I enjoy cookouts with friends

, fishing, camping(when I can), nascar,football(been a Colts fan since my first game in 1992)--attend 3-4 games each year.(Even when they sucked in the 90's

) My favorite hobby when I can go is Scubadiving

.

I hope you accept me into your gaming comunity, and look forward to playing with quite a few of you.
