sadly, what you say is the truth in America. Luckily, RPing is a small piece of that still, although most won't want to read something more than 5 lines, and they have horrible grammar/spelling. Reading helps in all of those areas. Reading is a joy, and I love it. I especially like to read many of the great cassics of literature.

Yoder sadly, what you say is the truth in America.

Reading is a joy, and I love it. I especially like to read many of the great cassics of literature. I know, Marshmallow kitty cries when no one reads. I read and love reading about a book a day sweatdrop . Thats like one of my best skills is that I read Very fast, and I know lots of wierd words^-^(though i cant spell all of them) I liek Shakespeare, I actually have this HUGE gold-trimmed paged Tome of every work Shakespear's ever written. I heart a Midsummers night Dream:p

I suppose that if I did sit down all day, I could read through an entire book, as well. Eh, my vocabulary could use a little broadening. I know a lot of words, but often can't think of them at the right time. I usually think of them at the most inoppurtune times and people look at me strangely. No way! My english teacher has that, too! I have one like that, but with everything of Edgar Allan Poe in it. That is one of Shakespeare's best.

When I was like 9-13 I swallowed books like crazy, too bad some of them were crappy twins drama/romance/teenager books. Though on the side of those I read tons of books about different animals and books like LotR. Nowadays I don't read very much, hardly two books a year, but when I do, it's always classics... those rawk.

Wow, thou art fast, ivel, but it also depends on the book's length. I found it in Borders/BarnesAndNoble.
The classics are... Well, classic (how original).

It usually has to be a really good book for me to do that. When I get inot one, there's no shaking me back into reality until I at least finish a chapter.

Meh, for some reason I just don't like reading unless it's someone roleplaying. The only type of books I liked are very sci fi (Puppetmaster, Warhammer 40,000.) The newest thing I read was Grey Knights... Didn't like it... Too cocky for me, the writer acted as if they were the best... my chaos would own them... >.>; Hopfully, their cheap anyways... I don't like the chaos books either because I hear half the time they loose. And the book isn't really that good fluff wise. I've read every codex front to back. I guess I'm particular on what type of stuff i'm reading. I'm so bad at not reading that if a friend sees me with a book their afraid... xd

Most of the time, I read those instrction manuals that come with games that no one ever seems to read. I find them invaluable. One time I was playing my cousin in Tekken (2, 3, or 4), which he had had for quite a few months, beaten the final boss, and gotten everything extra that you possible can. While he was connecting the system, I was looking through the instuction manual ad found a move I wanted to try. We versed and I utterly decimated him with this awesome comno move. He had no idea a move like that was even possible.

He had no idea a move like that was even possible. Tekken... Oh my goodness, now I feel like playing four again with the boxer character. I beat my friends that have been playing the game for like from the time the game came out until now with perfects for a while... Then we played soul calibur and I was screwed over and he got... 10 perfects before I could even get a hit in with any character. Though codexes actually give story behind the race your reading, like the chaos book called Eye of Terror depicts how chaos was born from the warp corrupting Horus and he was the trusted son of the Emperor, and he was talented in making people trust him and then he just got all of the people against the emperor and yeah... I'm thinking of making an army based off of that when I have the money to get a squad of... Oh 5-10 chaos spawns... (40-50 dollars for one I believe.) And i'm too lazy to read the damned rulebook... Too long and too boring. Oh, and you may wonder why I look like this currently... I'm slowly but surely turning into a classy buttsecks pirate.

SC 3 is awesome, because it's part RPG, too. In that, you can design your own character. Also, you can take your custom character and face other real or made-up character in the normal battle mode.

My friends hate me though, cuz I can beat anyone with Xianghua. xd
