*nods* It is very true. Gaming is just like any other addictive vice. When done in moderation, it's fun and harmless. But there are people that allow it to completely take over their lives. I know of one person in particular that is such a gaming addict that he forgot one morning while he was playing to take his daughter to the school bus and instead of doing the responsible thing of driving her to school, he just let her play hookey and called her in sick because he didn't want to go through the hassle of leaving his house. He's a horrible example to his daughter. Yeah, I really don't like this person.

I believe it. Oh, it sounds fun and all, but people have to draw a line for themselves somewhere.

Of course, I don't have high enough speed to hook up to those kind of games, or I'd probably be spending a lot of time at it too. But real world reponsibilities come first.

Wow, Valliegirl's example is downright scary. *shakes head in despair*
