How many of you started as online gamers?

[sublyme]

I know that personally I began my online competitive nature playing counter-strike, a first person shooter, in leagues and on LANs. Eventually I grew tired of that scene and noticed the explosion of online poker, got into that, and that was that. Now it seems like more and more everyday I'm running into other people who played CS, or Quake, or some other form of online game, and discovered that poker was a game which they could enjoy and become good at. I've even seen a lot of the phrases and so forth recycled (LOLNOOB has it's roots deeply entrenched into the online FPS world). So, did you used to, or do you still game online?
