how do you express your powerlevel in public?

do you totally suppress it (no one can `see' youre a gamer) or do you let it ring out subtly ?

i prefer the subtle aspect. you end up meeting some cool people and avoid the sperglords who actually dont play video games. it seems that the more a person tries to display their powerlevel, the lower the powerlevel they have.

heres some examples:

I like the subtle but tasteful approach. I'm a gamer and I'm drat proud of it, but I don't want to intimidate any gamers who aren't as open.

I used to own a few Game Shirts but purged almost all my graphic tees a few years back and haven't regretted it but am open to good looking ones if I can find them

One of my pals owns+wears a gray shirt that has the NCR flag on it which is neat because it could pass as a "ha ha mutant futures" sort of thing even if you've never Fallouted

I think I got rid of all my old gaming shirts. I still have a Star Wars Imperial Insignia shirt but nothing explicitly gamey.

I still have a ton of gaming related boxers.
