Had I not played Counter Strike as a teenager, I very well wouldn't be alive now. At the very least, stuck in my home town with dependency problems like most of my graduating class
It's a very long story, but through that competitive community (and tech) I made a good group of friends and learned a lot.
It lead to me finding a viable career and escaping serious poverty
- testmasterflex 4y agoHaha I also have Counter Strike to thank for starting my first company in game server hosting and pays for my livelihood even until today.
- bravetraveler 4y agoHah, awesome! Funny enough hosting those servers is what got me into Linux and eventually the career I mentioned. I can't say I was industrious enough to do the business thing, maybe one day.
- testmasterflex 4y agoCool! Starting a company is among the most enriching things you can do. And the less you have starting the more you appreciate it and can learn from it.
