 | | Roleplaying doesn't provide aerobic exercise or flood your body with antioxidants, it isn't going to build up your resume or get you into graduate school, and unless your significant other is also a roleplayer, it isn't even likely to improve your sex life. |
 | | Roleplayers actively seek out new knowledge to enhance their gaming experience; they learn about mythology, history, weaponry, tactics, science, philosophy, codes, currencies, and even basic astrophysics; they learn phrases in different languages and traditions in different cultures. |
 | | Roleplaying is a verbal game (textual, if you play over e-mail or in chat), and through practice, players improve their verbal (or writing) skills as they play. |
