A Gamer

Historically, a gamer was usually someone who played role-playing games or war games but more recently the term includes computer and video game players as well. While the term technically includes those who do not necessarily consider themselves to be gamers (i.e., casual gamers) it is commonly used to identify people who spend much of their leisure time playing or reading about games.

Noob: A person who is new, or is really bad at all games or one game. A casual gamer but could have once been pro.

Casual gamer: A person who enjoys playing games with simple rules or which do not require large blocks of time to play. They might not even identify themselves as a gamer. They are totally not pro. Because even the most occasional game player qualifies for this category, it is likely the largest in size.

Hardcore gamer: A person who spends much of their leisure time playing games. There are many subtypes of hardcore gamers based on the style of game, gameplay preference, hardware platform, and other preferences.

A "girl gamer" is a female who:
Works in the game development industry, or
Regularly engages in the practice of playing video games, role-playing games, or other games (colloquially referred to as "gaming"). This can be from the most casual interest to the most serious professional gaming, where female players often draw extra attention due to their rarity.

I am a bit of all.

I play MMORPG's mostly.

I like collecting the characters, making one of each kind.
(or two, or three...)

I play with my characters
like girls play dress up with their dolls,
like boys collect their action figures.

I like giving my characters a story.

I like them sexy.
