What did you learn from SRO that could be useful in RL?

[aishsharma]

I learned a few things:

1> not to judge a book by its cover.
2>fun=/=high level.
3>Patience should have limits
4>How to find idiots

Me too, I use to think RPGs are always about high level until I figured out that once I max a character I start another character just to max that one out. But in Silkroad's case, never max out and realizing then it isn't about maxing out, but the play through

What have I learned from SRO? nothing, what has sro caused to my life? Well, negative feedback from my parents, lower grades at school, lack of social life, and well basically constant fights with my dad and mom, which resulted in a year of no computer QQ

But i'm more mature now, I still play it, but dramatic decrease, more social life, grades at school are acceptable, and well I just dont live with my dad anymore so yea...

Got interested in korean and actually studying it now.

Also, just for you guys's information, turks in real life behave way differently than SRO's players. Not a turk myself but been there a few times and all I've seen is friendly forthcoming people ^^

I learned money management and how poor usage of it can lead to addictive buying, the hard way.

I actually believe that. To be honest, if you were to go in a game where players who don't speak your language try to talk to you or trade you and you hardly understand what the **** they're talking about, you'd do the same things they do such as walk away with their gold or something or ban them from a party when they're not buffing within 5 seconds. Too much of a hassle to try to communicate with them and shit. They probably think the same towards us english speakers :/ (the word "probably" probably doesn't even have to be there) we would probably also go "YO BUFF DUMBASS", 5 seconds later *kick*

Anyone that basis a group of people from a game lack some thing upstairs... especially since most people that play games are......umm... little kids with a maturity level of zero

They may be friendly, but maybe the ones who are friendly don't play SRO.
But still, people like to be thugs in SRO.

I think a better way to phrase it is that people like to live out their fantasy persona in a fantasy mmorpg...
