QUOTE I AM VERY MUCH ADDICTED TO NET and my freinds used to call me net-eria(means a net being) i couldn't concentrate on my studies at that time but i worked over it to overcome that addiction now i only spend 10 hours a week on the net only. i think it is not addiction anymore relative to 50+ hours a week which i earlier used to spend on the net and that too on cheap sites. i think maturity comes only after some experience. Oh gee, who isn't? Just kidding I am somewhat, however, addiction is really defined by the inability to control the amount of time you spend, and not realizing that you have a problem when in fact, you do. I'd say I spend about 10 hours a week, maybe up to 20 if I have things to do, or very little outside of computer play time. I have been told that I am addicted, however, for many periods, I have abandoned my keyboard all together, so I would say that I am not an addict, but I would leave it open to debate, for I really do enjoy being in control of my life and my body. |

addiction on the other hand is not a negative phrase i think.
cause with an addiction, you can improvisize your skill as well. then with your skill, you will be an usefull man,

QUOTE(Lateraus @ Feb 3 2008, 01:30 PM)  The internet is addicting, and the possibilities are endless on the 'tinternet' There will always be something you won't have ever done, sitting on the internet, and with it growing at a rapid speed more and more people are spending their life's on the Net. As much as concerning it is, it's also bad for your health. It's recommended you take a break every once in a while - But I don't follow that advice, as I've already mentioned in my last post... I'm addicted. yes, constantly people around the world are posting up something, and in most cases its at least new to you. i love how i can find anything with google, especialy with torrents. torrents are awesome, and while being a little fustrating in some cases, i can usualy get what i want downloaded in at least 2-3 days. and i love how very few topics exist that are not hunt-down-able. |

Internet is really addictive.. Very addictive. I usually spend my free time on internet on some networking community and blogging. I also usually watch videos on you tube and imdb. But more than the usual, I used this medium to connect with my loved ones like talking for 5hours on Voice chats. hahaha! That's almost every night. Nothing to worry of it for me being addictive yet its very helpful. Just have some time to focus on the other things, not just on the web. You can do other things while you are connected on the web.

I am a bit addicted to my PC....i admit it is one of the greatest inventions of all time...as long as i am in my room,i spent time on my PC gaming, movies,surfing etc....as i am in a hostel, there is nothing that would stop me from doing so...the only thing which keeps me away from my PC is ...soccer. i like playing soccer a lot. Its the only thing that can stop me in the middle of a PC game or a movie..
so those guys who wish to get away from their PC addiction,should try some outdoor activities.... they keep ur mind fresh and healthy... |

lol ok this topic for me.
I think im addicted both to the pc and the internet. As soon as i come home from work i turn the pc on and it does not go off untill i go to bed. Actually whenever im at home the pc has to be on. When i wake up on a weekend i get out of bed and turn the pc on. Thinking about it it's quite scary. I prob spend about 6 hours aday on the internet monday to friday. And about 10 hours aday on a sunday. So id say i have a problem. Ok now how to sort it ?

Im also addicted to internet, after playing ragnarok I will spend my time on the net.. surfing for something, looking for something.. and this I found trap17 on the net.. and most of the stuffs I need are right now on the net..
I know spending too much time on the net makes me stressy, and I do get a rest if I had spend too much time but sometimes I also get bored and I do take a rest earlier.... |
