Well naturally, everything you do has become the norm.
You're a great guy, you're athletic, and you're great to be around.
However, once they found out you do this one thing, they immediately associate it with some dirty secret. If some other person they don't know asks them, "Hey, aren't you friends with that guy who plays MapleStory?" they'd say no. You're not recognized for all the good things you do since you have this one thing that stands out, and isn't something they'd expect of you.
