if her son was so messed up that he was crying over a video game... she might have done the right thing.

but the vast majority of people are capable of self-control / moderation.

Yay for being old enough to not have to live with mom but young enough to not have to have a wife yet

All you have to do is answer the following nine questions, and if you answer "yes" to five or more, then that indicates a strong tendency toward on-line addiction.

1. Do you feel preoccupied with on-line gaming (do you think about previous on-line gaming activity or anticipate your next session)?

Yes

2. Do you feel the need to play on-line games with increasing amounts of time in order to achieve satisfaction?

No

3. Have you repeatedly made unsuccessful efforts to control, cut back, or stop your on-line game playing?

No

4. Do you feel restless, moody, depressed, or irritable when attempting to cut down or stop your on-line gaming?

No

5. Do you play on-line games for longer than you originally intended?

Yes

6. Have you jeopardized or risked the loss of a significant relationship, job, educational or career opportunity because of your on-line game playing?

No

7. Have you lied to family members, a therapist, or others to conceal the extent of your involvement with on-line gaming?

No

8. Do you use on-line gaming as a way of escaping from problems or of relieving a dysphoric mood (eg. Feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, depression)?

Yes

9. Do you have difficulty staying away from on-line gaming for several days at a time?

Its never come up . . . I have a laptop.

10. Do you ever refer to yourself as your In-Game character, or cling to your characters name for your email's, instant messanger, etc?

Yes


Hmm, getting closer

My name is John Suit and I am currently a freelance programmer and web developer. I am donating my time and efforts in the creation and maintenance of OLG-Anon?s website because of my strong belief in helping others. I was once addicted to on-line games, especially Ultima Online, so I completely understand the harsh reality of this virtual life. Fortunately, with my resilience to addiction and encouragement from my girl friend, I no longer feel the need to participate in this type of addictive on-line game. Although I still enjoy computer games, I now know what type of games and which situations to avoid. I hope to utilize my past gaming experiences and my web designing skills to help others in need.

Bull. You can play EQ2 and WoW for 30 days for 15 bucks. Women cost obscene amounts of money in order to maintain. Wasting money is a sin, so sayeth the Bible.

From their Alternatives Section:

4. For women: Organize your makeup collection -- buy a big organizer for makeup and jewelry, sort everything, make a log of the items you want to get or need to replace. Read magazines, like Lucky and Cosmopolitan, or even the hundreds of teen rags. Grab all the ?sale? catalogs and flyers from stores like Nordstrom?s, Macy?s, Fifth Avenue, Target, Sears, LL.Bean, Land?s End, Jansport, and many, many more. Make a wish list, post it on your website, write it in a database, put it in a Word doc, or just write it down and make copies to give to relatives and friends. Do as my girlfriend does if you?re going steady with your boyfriend, but don?t live together: give him a drawer-style box of all your necessary things to store at his place. That way, you won?t need to stress when you visit. Plan to fill it with new items such as makeup, makeup removers, contact cleaning and storing solutions (if you wear contacts), lotions, body wash, hair removers, tweezers, soap, shampoo, conditioners, feminine unmentionables, and the list goes on forever

Kinda sexist aren't they . . .

LOL

I play for 140 hours a week and I'm agressive. I once cut a little kid for bothering me. Also I have a machine that's hooked up to my skin to feed me every 4 hours so I don't have to move. Am I addicted?

EDIT: who from here posted that?

This one made me laugh. Want everyone to use their real name for it, so pedos can get them?

Look at the picture halfway down of the right side on the about page

That is the most generic picture I have ever seen. I could see an add for selling it "cultural diverse group of actors make your product/service look professional and real! See our sample work in genital warts commericals!"
