Playing VS Fighting games since SSF2, I'm old enough to have played SF1 and SF2 a lot... but i really fell for the game with the apparition of Cammy and DeeJay (which still are my Character of Choices when I can play them)
I did not really enjoyed SFA and SF3, so I bought me a NeoGeo and played every Garô, every KoF, every ArtOf and every SamSho I could afford for approximatively 10 years.
I then got married, and stopped playing as much, until SF4 was playable on xBox360, and Online playing could then arrange me to have a family life, and to play once everyone in the home is asleep :D
I'm the kind of a rule guru, more interested in the way things work then in making them working (even if I DO like playing a lot)
When I play a game, I always tries to help other players that are starting and make good use of my understanding of things.
