Some of my closer friends do, but only the ones that I talk about video games with. I'm not ashamed to tell anyone or anything. I just don't think it's relevant :lol:

I would tell my cousin, but he only gets around half an hour of electronics a week. :|

Then I would tell my friend, but then he'd probably get himself banned within the first few hours on here.

Come to think of it there's certainly a division in my "gamer" friends. Those that play "cool" video games such as CoD and all that rubbish and the real gamers :P

My friends all despise the Elder Scrolls.
they prefer Fable, and only Fable. Except for a few of my close friends who play ES, but they wouldn't join a forum. Maybe one of them would... Hmmm...

My brother knows I'm here. And I'm convinced he is one of the senior members here, as he's been around here since... Jeff's time.

I let all my friends know i'm on the forums. I tell them all about the latest info for Skyrim. Even if they want me to or not..
I have a few friends that play this game. Not as much as me though!
Say "I" if you're 99% sure that you have spent over 1000 hours purely in TES games! :D
Yeah, I showed my uncle(who is a major DnD and LOTR fan.) The Elder Scrolls.
Needless to say, he is staying at my house soon, just to play them with me.
He is an awesome uncle.
Regards.

One thing I hate about that situation is that you always try getting them into TES and then you just get rejected. :c

One of my friends does, she made an account once, then never used it again. :roll: Actually I think she made two accounts. She had a UESP profile page, but from what I remember she only put a picture of her cat on it... Or maybe it was her horse...?

I'm happy with my friends not knowing what I do, they aren't really friends I guess, just people I hang around with at school.

Soon I shall be rid of them :D

I'm a lone island, I had a couple friends who liked TES, but they moved long ago and for all I know, they could be lurking on this forum.

Not everyone can be as steadfast in their faith as us. Far too few were blessed with such piety. :D

I mentioned that I use an elder scrolls forum a few times. We don't talk much about it they aren't really into Bethesda games as much as I am. One of them uses the UESP sometimes.
So we have come to solve every squabble in the village personally?

I have told one friend (my best) about this place. He is the only one I know that is willing to open his eyes to other than the "cool" games like COD. He still ain't into TES, but says that if he had the time and motivation he would play it.

I did once tell someone about this place. 'You know the UESP, right?' 'Yeah, what about it?' 'I moderate the forums there.' 'Get out of town.'

And those are the only words that have been spoken of these hallowed halls.

No one I know in real life knows. It's not a secret, I just never told them. I think my brother saw me on here once, and said it was weird, or something, but whatever.

None of my friends play ES either, so there's really no point in telling them.
