I watch anime too... Do I lose points or gain them?

With that said, I feel defensive... Like I should be telling you that I
don't have a hump or just one single eyebrow... :)

I bought my first motorcycle 2 years ago and I'll never look back! (It
is a Buell --the 'sport bike' made by Harley Davidson)  It's the thing I
do to give my eyes a break from the screen!

And yes... Games... Sweet sweet video games.

I considered playing City of Heroes... But I'm a bit concerned.  I play
WoW... Halo and Starcraft (mainly with my roommate and our friends when
we feel the need to group-stress-release-kick-each-others-butts)... And
I'm itching to get in on Civ 4.  If I pick something else up, I'm going
to have to drop one (or two) because I do still enjoy having a social
life! :)

The best thing about Civilization (though I haven't played the latest
one yet) is that it is turn based... So you can take a break... Save and
come back... And it will be there.  Sure you can save in WoW, in a
sense... But it's not like you can do that 'at any time' without there
being consequences, or giving up advantages.

The thing about WoW (the MMORPG I have experience with) is that there
are occasionally changes, and sometimes they do work do my
disadvantage... But just as often, they make changes that work to my
advantage.  I recall a few times where they have made a number of
changes to my characters abilities and stats and then refunded all of
our talent points so we can re-spec.  That can be handy and save a lot
of expense... Especially for those of us that contemplate respecing on a
regular basis! :)  I guess the thing I like about them IS the fact that
they are always making changes.  I'd be more upset if they didn't reset
the balances and such on occasion, because sometimes it turns out that
the classes are completely unbalanced, etc... 

Ever get the feeling you have given something too much thought?

You ride Motorcycles AND you game?
WAY COOL!!!

I was never into the whole Real Time Strategy stuff.

I almost got WoW as well, but I got into City of Heroes instead. Boy,
have they been CHANGING that game! It's so different from what it was
a few months ago. They decided to redesign the entire thing after they
had sold, gottne subscribers, and ran it for over a year. Crazy stuff.
I got so upset that I started writing to the message boards, both
'missives' I shall call them got good responses, but never one from a
developer *chuckle*.

I am wondering if MMORPGs are pointless since with the huge amount of
invested time, the developers can just switch the rules on you if they
like and at that point, if you don't like it...what happens to all the
time you spent leveling?
