Well one time I got my girlfriend to dress up as Meryl :D while I wore a bandana does that count as involving her in my hobby :P

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Seriously...you are shrugging off 25,000 people interested in his personal life? That is a lot.

I haven't put up any videos, but that's besides the point. I would assume that if he were a Youtube star, then hundreds of thousands of people would watch his videos. Instead, it's a couple thousand. Yeah, I'm sorry that he did something so stupid, but I've really never heard of the guy.

I've spent much of my week playing Peggle, Ninja Turtles, Saints Row 2 (what?) and Tetris with my girlfriend and kid. I think this guy should've made his family a part of his hobby instead of making his hobby an escape from his family. It seems to work pretty well for me.

This is a good policy. Always try to include your loved ones in your obbies: it makes things easier and more enjoyable for everyone.

I really don't feel sorry for the guy. I guarantee he had ample opportunity to get his act in gear.

What does being a Youtube star have to do with anything? Not THAT is besides the point. And 25,000 is more than a couple thousand. It doesn't matter if you have heard of him or not, that wasn't the point of the thread.

Just kiss the tip.

Sorry, I just expected him to be a bit more famous if we have a thread about him. Seriously, I've seen random cat videos that get more views than his. 25,000 views is barely anything.

Tell you what. It sucks that he couldn't control his hobby, but that's nobody's fault but his own. I feel bad for him.
