A pleasant day to everyone! I am not against gaming but I want to show you something more important and prettier than gaming. So let's start with the background

Gaming Culture

Most gamers spend at least 2 hours playing wether online or offline games. Studies show that some online gamers stay even 5-7 hours in front of computers. In the Philippines, it is very common to youth specially the guys to go to computer shops after class, and more often during vavation. I heard that some people even pass night at computer shops and return home at the next morning. I know you can figure out what I starting to tell. Some things are wasted.

Qualities of a Gamer

To start the main subject, let's think of the qualities that most of the gamers have. ( But for now, do not think of the ugly traits like gambling, saying bad words and being hot headed. )

Knows More About the Internet

Creating accounts, emails and even bad hacking are just simple things for a gamer. If a game or a site is banned in a country, he knows how to still access those. He can figure out about good and slow connections. He knows the things about LAN, servers, proxy, html and some even mastered deeper contents of the internet like cryptocurrency.

Good Computer Skills and Knowledge

When not gaming, gamers explore the computer to know the RAM, ROM,Bots,AI, resolution, Bits and other features of a computer. Some gamers are not just gamers, but also are skilled programmers and app users like the photoshop. Good gamers even know trouble shooting. In short, excellent skilled gamers are also computer users that can be connected to little I.T.

Strength of Youth

It's rare to see a grandpa playing Dota, Lol, ML, ROS and CS Go. But why do the youngsters who are physically strong spends a lot of time sitting in front of computers? We have the capability of staying up late at night, looking at small characters, understanding complicated systems, and staying focused on work. Think of it!


The Internet

After looking the qualities of a gamer, let us now
proceed to the features of the internet.

Powerful

In almost all senses, internet has huge strength. It can spread news at hours, it can transact at minutes, and it can send messages at seconds.
Big and hustle things like 500 m² libraries, orchestra, and buy & sell can be compressed into megabytes virtually, inside a building, a room, a working table, a deskstop, a loptop, a mobile phone, and a half inch memory card.

And being related to the internet,

Education

Some, including me are youtube students. We don't pay tutors and we don't go to workshops but we are able to enhance our skills and interest. Not only youtube, but the whole interet contains things that a person can not learn all.

And Most Importantly...

Here is the main part of it. EARNING MONEY!!

You think you are not talented enough or too weak at physical jobs? This is the answer. You can earn money while just sitting, browsing and typing. Isn't it lazier? Her are some of the ways to earn in the internet.

  • Blogging
  • YouTube video making
  • Journalistic writting
  • Ads
  • Survey Job
  • URL Shortening
  • Photo selling
  • Marketing
  • Captcha Solving
  • Freelancing
  • Tutoring
  • Virtual Assistance
  • Software judging/reviewing

Now you know all of this, shake your head! When you pay at computer shops, you lose money. Let's say P20 is too little for you, but 2 hours of time is very expensive. You'll get that if stepped on college and intensive high school, where sleeping for 5 hours is a miraculous blessing.

Let's go back to the negative traits of a gamer. Here, instead of gambling and one os losing money, all will earn. Instead of having pleasure in winning, having joy in earning. Hot heads will be chilled if you see a good payout. And most essentially, valuing time instead of wasting time.

Again, I'm not against gaming. But THINK ALL ABOUT THIS!

Bye 👋👋👋

I manage my gaming so it doesn't go out of control. If I feel tired, my eyes get bleary or if I have any outstanding chores I immediately stop and attend to my personal needs or tasks.

Gaming isn't bad per se, it's Excessive gaming that gives it a bad reputation.
