As a Department head for a multinational company and an avid mmo player [with some med school experience?]. If i received a resume with mmo experience listed in it, it would be the first one to be ignored.

People don't list paint ball team captain in their resumes, its a game, its played as a team, it requires certain skills, but in the end its just a game.

The article values and fantasizes about certain aspects of mmo gaming and players, when i see a hardcore raider, i don't see someone with good organizational skills, i see someone who has problems socializing, who prefers to spend their time indoors playing games instead of contacting with other people in social situations, i see someone that has the strong possibility of developing health problems due to a sedentary life style, and when i remember the tantrums mmorpg players tend to demonstrate when their character/loot/gameplay is messed with, i see people who have no tolerance for a demanding work environment.
