But see, marriage in PS -is- roleplay. (Doesn\'t have to be - it could be, like you said, a in-game reenactment of a real event, if such will ever occur.) But marriage and rp aren\'t mutually exclusive.
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

Roleplaying is about full immersion into your character. People who have in-game marriages are not doing it because they can\'t get dates in RL, unlike some would have you believe. They are doing it to advance the character, play the role more completely, having their character do something.

Sure, hard-core role-players usually can\'t get dates, but that\'s not the reason behind in-game marriages :D

EDIT: I accidentally wrote \"loser\" instead of \"role-player\" :P

I didn\'t mean to imply that people get married in role playing games because they can\'t get dates in real life. I just thought it was kind of outlandish.

On a side note me and my friends use loser as a compliment, so when I said \"100x more loser than me\" I wasn\'t being completely derogatory. For example, we have a loser points system in which we award each other points for commiting acts of loserness (eg: ordering something online for the same price as you could get it from a store down the street, just to avoid going outside, or passing up a social event to play computer games). Didn\'t mean to offend everyone...

You have a strange way of expressing that.
