Are we all skinny little nerds? are we all fat slobs?
where do you fit?
I'm 173cm high, and weigh 63kg, which gives me a Body mass index of 21, which is normal, (even though I'm considered skinny).
how about you?
(it's all in the link).

People (Unlucky and AscalonWarrior in particular) have commented on the essence of the thread in a way I felt I should respond to:
(taken from my comments lower in the thread)
The meaning is to test to which stereotype the community fits more, if at all, and in a way, to rise awareness to players playing habits and to the affects of the game on our real lives.
.
What's your REAL body scale?

And the relevance to Guild Wars is....? 'twas funny to see this above the other, but still. This should be in off topic IMO.

Toutatis
180cm tall, 34" waist (up from a 32" waist before I started playing GW). Probably slightly overweight due to too much computer time and not enough exercise

Anyway, I'm 175-176cm tall, and I weigh 55.6kilos. IMO, I'm far FAR too skinny for my build however my genetics weren't exactly kind to me in the way of my arms. "Hm, let's see. We'll give this lad nice broad shoulders...But oh wait, let's make his wrists pathetically small....You know what would be normal? Large thin bony hands on top these wrists! There we go!"
No matter how much more my muscles develop, my arms still make me appear weak. :P (Note: If you got the idea I was any kind of body builder, you're quite wrong. Lol.)
Edit: BMI is 17.9...Underweight...Woo. Confirms what I was already aware of.
AscalonWarrior
192 cm tall (Yes), ~73kg so I'm kinda off my weight.
And I think this should be in the off topic?

Onarik Amrak
180cm, 80kg, 34" waist.
aapo
188cm, 63.4kg -> 17.9 BMI (Underweight)
kenichiukiya
182-185cm (been a long time since i last checked), about 80-82kg (been fluctuating lately depending on my motivation to go gym), 34 waist. CBF with BMI although I always calculate other ppl's BMIs in my uni exercises (I'm studying pharmacy), but i guess my BMI would be around 25-26...which is normal to 'slightly' overweight....I think.
That makes me almost similar to Onarik

It's a topic related to the community. the off topic forum is for fun and junk. I'm trying to rise awareness to players playing habits and to the affects of the game on our real lives!
Watch out for my next inventive forum thread; Scan yourself and show us if you got any tan!

I don't really look like what one would expect a Guild Wars player to look like anyway. Just goes to show that you can't really predict who is on the otherside of the screen (so to speak). Being a female and not a stereotypical nerd doesn't change much for me, nor should it matter to you. I will still pwn you and you not knowing who I am will be none the wiser :P
Those stereotypes are just a bunch of phooey anyway. Everyone plays GW.

At high school we took a body-fat measurement by standing on what looked like weighing scales but it sent electrical pulses to measure body fat vs. body mass. My result was like 4% body fat and I was taken aside and interrogated about my eating habits (or lack thereof). I eat like a horse, don't do very much and am a familiar face in McDonalds. I lolled at them for being fitness experts and fatter than me.
