    Subotan, its un-american to be sarcastic. Keep that in mind, comrade.

    Secura, its a myth that theirs womenz on the internet. Stop propagating these obvious lies.

    The real funny thing about the speaker though, is that it was completely random. I could tell it was from the heart too. My teacher was NOT expecting something like that, he meant give some advice for college or something.The whole class was stunned, didnt even ask a question. Afterwards I told a friend on the bus ride back home about the experiance, and he said hes making some serios dough off of nerds like him. He and 2 of his mates set up a private server and charge people 300$ for the best armour and people flock to him because its usually 400-500$. All he had to do is type in some stuff on his computer to produce the armour. Besides the server costs and game fee's his team has over 8,000$ in profits already.

    Isn't this against Activision-Blizzard's terms & conditions? In fact, isn't it plain illegal? o_o

    Personally, I think I spend too much time at the .Org. Not because my social life sucks, per se, but because it has got a lot quieter after leaving Uni and randomly going to the Pub is more effort than firing up the old desktop. Having said this, I knew a friend who was in serious danger of being addicted to WoW. I think it happens because it combines social interaction with the ability to RP and nuke stuff.

    I used to play Warcraft 3 too much. I'm very glad I stopped playing. It wasnt fun, it was something I needed to do.

    Addicted, in my eyes, no.

    But what do I know, for the last month, I've been on the computer...around 16 hours a day. Every day.

    I used to be "addicted" to this MMORPG for a year or two in high school. Stopped playing when I got bored of it. No harm done, I still remember it as a fun time.

    Was that before or after the judge sent you to rehab?
