I hope he cast the magic spell of +5 invisibility before he walked through his house naked. :icon_roll

 

I can speak from experience. As long as you keep thing in perspective, WoW won't take over your life. Setting your own parental controls can help. Otherwise, get a buddy to help you stay connected to the real world.

 

My sister loves that game.
GOD! How i hate it!!!!
Every free second she has she is on that game; It is demon spawn to the maxx.
I hope you don't go back to it, but if you do, put major limits on it. I feel like it has attached to my sister's brain. If I make but one negative comment about it, she goes into a huff then completely wigs out on me. Rediculus.
If I actually cursed, and met the creator of that game, I would say, and I quote;
You :***: :***: :***: !!! :***: you for :***: making that :***: :***: :***: game and :***: :***: :***: you :***: :***: . Got it!? Good now go die in a ditch.

 

:eek: Jeez, man. It's not Blizzard's fault that they made a game good enough that people play it obsessively. Seriously, nothing against your sister, but she got addicted to the game. I can tell you personally that it's a player's choice whether or not they choose to let themselves become addicted to WoW. You shouldn't be attacking the game. You should be telling your sister that she has a problem and helping her with it.

 

I know, and I have tried-multiple times- It's just... ugh! She doesn't believe it is an addiction, and if she doesn't think it is, I can't do anything to change it. But it has currupted her, no wait, it didn't, let's see, club penguin, that other one, and the one before that, god! what were their names? I dunno, but she has been doing online games for about two years or so and it is becoming worse. She will actually go on from when she wakes up to when my mother yells at her to go to bed (or she'd be up ALL night) and only stops to use the bathroom or grab a snack. She doesn't really eat any meals and does not go out anywhere except school and practice for the bowling team.
Sorry, I know you must like the game alot, but it has become to much. People need fresh air and sunshine, not some pixils(sp?) making a picture of it. And I true didn't mean to offend anyone who plays it.

 

I used to be that way, i'd spend every waking minute on the internet and playing Star Wars Galaxies (I'm a huge Star Wars Nerd, and SW in an MMO form was a no-brainer for me). It got so bad when I was in college that I stopped going to classes and I failed the whole semester because I'd rather sit and play video games than go to classes. At that point I realized I had to do something with my life, and college was no longer an option. So, rather than work at a gas station or something other I decided to serve in the military. Currently I'm serving a 15 month deployment in Iraq (12 months to go!), but its really NOT that bad. I live well, I have internet in my room, food is great. I still play SWG to this day when I'm not out on missions, but I'll play and limit myself to maybe 2-3 hours at max.

Of course, I'm not advocating that you join the military (Its not really the most gay-friendly environment either) to cure your gaming problems although it worked for me, but find something else you like that can help you, such as reading a book, go out and run a few miles, go to a gym. When you log on, set an alarm clock or something for like 2-3 hours and when it goes off, finish up and log out.

 

Well, you DO have group showers in basic training, so you get to see guys in less than just their undies
