Why would you censor the word gamer? The Internet is bizarre
Because there is a gamer. Someone who plays games.
And Gmer. Someone who's entire personality is based around games, and not in the fun healthy way. But in the justifying a monopoly because it's their colour way. Just look at some of the comments here and you'll see a lot of Gmers.
Lol you pretentious cunt
Hit a nerve I guess.
Ok, so that is the what, but what is the why? Why the censored word? I don't get it. Nonetheless I'm closer to getting it now so thank you for that much
I'm never heard of 'Gmer' like that until a few seconds ago; but I'll go on and assume that G*mers might refer to 'both' words.
