I can't believe I am actually posting in agony!!!! Sad

But seriously, how do one get off the addiction???? Do you just get up one day and decide "okay, that's it, i'm done with it!"? Or do you get grounded for spending too many hours (per day) on it???? Or do you re-direct yourself to other activities?

Come one, come all.....got tips or no-fail recipe(s) to share? Sad

Xie xie....thank you.....kum siah........terima kaseh....dou che......

seow SG

I got bored of the game. Laughing

allentyb SG

its very simple,

sure fire way

lock your computer in the storeroom,

hand the key over to someone and tell him, no matter what, DON'T HAND over the key

and one week later, you should be doing fine

stellazio SG

ahh finally u realized it..

getting another addiction is good, for me i got bored of the game naturally..

err try limit game time?

littlestream SG

so lucky.............liddat i better pray for that to happen.

littlestream SG

hmm.......i tink so too but i don't have the heart to do it leh.

erm.....the addictor is not me leh. someone in my family. Sad

its hard to kick this gaming habit

littlestream SG

Crying or Very sad

not NOW then i realise ah......i've been two eyes closed for a nong time! Sad

but it's getting a bit out of hand lately. especially on a school day???? that's pretty hard to close one or two eyes leh. Sad

But then again, i wasn't much of a gamer to start off with. Laughing

Try setting the mood?

spoil his/her mood for a game.

littlestream SG

Crying or Very sad

i honestly hope that will happen 'cos it has happened to other games before.

oh i hate BLIZZARDS!!!!!

thanks ah, allentyb Wink

allentyb SG

ok.... i think TS, is talking about World of Warcraft

then i think, you have to cut off his internet connection, lock the PC

or it will be very hopeless

Keii SG

gaming. in a sense. was a way for me to escape reality. during my primary/secondary school days. i used to game non-stop.

after i finished o-levels. i found no meaning to continue playing. i just. got sick and bored of gaming. occasionally. will play lah. but not hardcore la. Very Happy

littlestream SG

so lucky. your parents are lucky too. Wink

i'm not saying gaming is a bad thing but the trick is the self discipline and everyone's level is different. Sad

hee hee.....spoil his game??? aiyoh....i don't know about that leh. Laughing

but thanks ah, seow Wink

allentyb SG

i already forbidden myself from buying the expansion pack, Burning crusade already.

i used to stare at the screen for 16 hours

then raiding came along

you know those end game content, it took around 8 hours to try the new map,

trust me, you have to be heartless , or THATS IT

raiding is a killer, you basically have to stare at the screen, waiting for the loot,

EPIC!!!!!! PURPLE ITEM

littlestream SG

kekekeke~~~~~ so clever. yeap, it's the evil WoW!!!! Laughing

it started off managable but lately? *haiz*..........i can hit the roof but i control myself. Razz

the Bear SG

fall in love... Embarassed

even tho' not with her anymore, not gone back to gaming Razz

allentyb SG

limit his timing bah or kill his toon completely by

accessing his account and sell off all his epic item, then delete his account, change his account password, then blame it on hacker

littlestream SG

aiyoh, so lucky. u snap out of it yourself ah?

*keeps fingers and toes crossed* Sad
