only real gamers have the mark.. do you?..
..And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand..
People keep asking me if it hurts and it really doesn't. It doesn't feel like anything at all really.
I don't use sandpaper as a mousepad
>>340282252
I did before my PC broke. I don't have the money to buy the part at the moment
>only idiots that don't know how to comfortably place their hands have the mark
Dumbshit.
>>340282252
The mark of the person not into ergonomic use of his equipment?
>>340282252
huh i just realised mine's disappeared since i got a new mouse and pad
G400s gave me the mark but G303 doesn't. well there you go.
if you get this just wear a damn long sleeved shirt when you're on the computer and the sleeve will cover that part, so it won't inflame
>>340282252
>marks
>>340283264
I'm legitimately impressed this exists.
actually you dont have a mark at all so much as a bulk of callous after a while
you'd know that if you werent a generic 16 year old who buys razer products who plays bad games
>>340282252
>>340283419
"the mark" IS a callous...
>>340283264
Damn, I kinda want that mouse pad.
I have a mark but I dunno if it';s from gaming or jacking off.
>>340283503
Post tits
>>340283264
This is so wrong yet so great
>>340282252
Even when i played cs for 12h a day i didn't get that mark, wtf are people doing?
>>340282252
>real gamers
haha us gamers right?
>>340283787
you don't get callous skin on your wrist from jacking off
I also have it. Friends told me that it was because I didn't even have a mousepad (I didn't for a long time, but it's been around 5-6 months since I got a mouse pad).
>>340282252
Never once had that mark and I use a computer at least 10 hours a day
ITT high sensitivity shitters who move their mouse with the wrist rather than the whole arm.
>>340284582
I do that mostly.
all you have to do is buy a fucking silicone mouse pad, how fucking hard is it
>>340283503
I also have a zowie AM
> not hovering your wrist above the desk
Fucking degenerates. I bet you rest your ass on the top of your chair. Enjoy your shitty posture.
>>340284582
Absolutely.
low sens/lot of movement may be the way to play if you are competitive, but its extremely destructive to your hand
so rather than get tennis elbow and be in pain the rest of my life when trying to shoot shit, I'll just play in a non-destructive manner since I'm not a sponsored e-sports guy
>>340283832
>>340283503
That's a man
>>340282798
why would it hurt when you actually have used it so much it goes numb really
>>340285003
How is smoothly moving your arm with your elbow as a pivotal point "destructive"?
>>340283503
please be in london
>>340285186
>smoothly
Instant 180°s and the like is practically jerking your arm about.
Maybe whatever pleb shit people are playing today don't need the kind of motion quake/ut, even cod 4 used to.
The real "mark" is a patch of hair on your right forearm from rubbing on the edge of your desk top.
>>340284918
the "right" typing seems fucking retarded
I write with the 2nd from "wrong" and its way fucking easier.
Get a gel pad for your wrists you poorfag moran.
>>340285263
Just because it's a fast movement doesn't make it bad for your arm though. You probably stress your arm 10 times as much just from holding your dog on a leash.
I'm scared I'm going to get carpal tunnel or some shit so I've started putting my arm all the way up so my wrist doesn't rub the desk
>>340282885
This
Correct posture and a properly sized desk prevents such things. My whole forearm rests on my desk taking all the pressure away from my wrist.
>>340285460
Sure, but you don't walk your dog 10 hours a day continuously every day - meanwhile if you are actually competitive - you do put in those insane hours.
The quick jerking motions done for extremely long periods (practice) = tennis elbow
Its called that because tennis players do the same, abuse their forearm for a lot of practice hours.
Yes but mine is mine bigger because I chew on it.
>limiting your range of movement by using the wrist as the pivot point
Buy a huge mousepad, position it farther up on your desk, and start using your arm instead of the wrist. You'll get used to it in a few days then feel retarded for ever using your wrist for gaming
>>340285003
This guy is retarded
Tennis elbow is not a chronic condition and if you get it from playing games on your pc it ahould ve the keast of your worries. Tennis elbow is caused by rigourous use of the muscles in your elbow. If moving your mouse is strenuous you must be the weakest person alive.
what causes this anyway
>>340285848
You people have no understanding of how muscle use works, and really nothing shows it more than the "you must be weak" argument
Clearly heres a person who've never played something gud enuff to realize that it is "rigorous use of the muscles in your elbow" to play large amounts of time with low sensitivity - which is what competitive play is in a real FPS.
I used to have the mark then I dropped 4grsnd into my PC over the course of 3 years and it went away y this happen
>>340286010
Having your goddamn wrist bone on a hard surface all the time rubbing back and forth you dingus.
>>340286010
what the fuck is wrong with that hand?
>>340286258
should get one of those meme gaymurr mousepads
>>340286473
that's my hand anon, it's perfectly functional
>>340285127
Did the marketers for this actually think this would work?
>>340286608
I have one of these, it's pretty nice. http://www.amazon.com/iZEEKER-Mousepad-Waterproof-Material-Stitched/dp/B016VYPGLG My callus has basically disappeared.
Every pro gamer for every genre has a hitchhikers thumb.
Coincidence?
>>340286036
Nigga i play golf all the time. I got golfers elbow when i first started and never got it again. I have never had any muscle/tendon related issues from playing video games. You need to get out of the hiuse more and build some muscle strength buddy. Go kayaking, hiking, do something to engage your muscles and i gurantee you will never get tennis elvow from playing video games.
>>340287094
Again, you are retarded.
And I think you may be confusing the condition with a simple muscle strain...
>>340286962
I have a hitchhiker's thumb
What's the deal with it? I assumed everyone could do that
>>340287289
Did you not go to public school or something? People would always go on about being double-jointed somewhere.
>>340287289
Ability to manipulate a keyboard in ways non pro's can, same applies to controllers.
Honestly, life is easier when you can add 90 degrees to your grip, try and go a day without moving your thumb back like ours naturally do.
>>340287190
Tennis elbow is not a "condition" it is literally a strain of your tendon in your elbow from the repetetive swinging motion that is common in tennis players. If you rest you arm for a week or so it will go away.
Educate yourself and stop being a hypochondriac.

This is the mark of someone with shitty ergonomics.
>>340287531
It's definitely useful for me, I play both piano and guitar and I end up using the extra flexibility all the time. I can bend all my fingers back 90s degrees at the first joint and at the knuckle. I can stretch my thumb and little finger out so they form a 180 degree straight line between them. Can you do this too?
>>340287289
Just makes you better than everyone else
no because im not an idiot
>>340288176
can you give me an example? I don't think I understand what you're trying to say, or am unable to do it.
>>340282252
With or without custom mousepads, anyone with that mark do not have either
A: A comfortable grip on their mouse and keyboard to the point where it doesn't cause Carpal or this Meme Mark
B: Any fucking idea how to do things without injuring themselves.
Literally everyone with this mark should be shot, and I guarantee you'll kill half of Tumblr.
>>340288228
man what the fuck
>>340288372
If you can do it it's really easy and doesn't feel like stretching at all, but it seems like a lot of people can't manage it.
>>340286962
I can do it with my right hand but not my left
>>340282252
I have 2.
One from playing Mario Party 64 and one from PC gaming.
>>340288627
I get close, but it isn't a straight line.
>>340282252
Yeah and lately I'm getting carpal tunnel syndrome. The feeling is really annoying.
>>340288973
Another one- I can't do this but my gf can. Can you move your smallest toe individually (without the rest of your toes also moving)? She can twitch it left and right independently but the rest of my toes always move as well.
>>340286010
AIDS
You're done for, anon.
>>340288228
AAAAA OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK
>>340288228
W...what?
>>340288228
How is that even fucking possible?
>>340282252
>gamer
>doesn't avoid damage
>>340288228
i actually can't tell what the fuck is happening in this picture
>>340282252
Literally everyone without iPads have these marks. Not exclusive to gaming.
>>340286010
Anon wash your hands, they're filthy. Ffs your skin is turning brown.
>>340288228
>>340290204
>Not having handy skills
There must be something you can do with your hands.
Here, for example i can move/vibrate my fingers really fast.
>>340284210
definiatly, upvoted ;-)

>that triforce shoved in the middle because Link didn't fit anywhere
jesus

>>340291797
>There must be something you can do with your hands.
I can jack off
>>340291797
I can have hereditary arthritis in my early 20's. Does that count?
haha us gaymers right?? xD

>>340293131
What soft pink hands you have.
>>340283264
Best mousepads
I dont seem to have that
