well it depends on the eprson really

if i wasnt a person that was concerned on my education then yes it would be a problem for me.

but i relize that having an education is important and since the game is addictive i end up taking a while to finish all my things for school. If i didnt think school was important, then i would be getting really bad grades right now instead of mostly As

This is what I am concerned about in MY gaming. I have been getting good grades and so on, but VU is very addictive and I am spending more and more time on it rather than doing oyther things. Im not just talking  about school, im ok with that, I mean like doing stuff like getting exercise, doing other things rather than sitting in front of a pc screen. It can affect social life aswel, might start staying home on the pc instead of being out seeing other people/ this may not be a problem for most as they see people @ school but i homeschool so it is important i get out and see people.

@ iwasfrozen: yes, I did read them, but I am talking about after you have played for awhile and you are getting better and more involved with the VU community in general

i have lost all meaning of the thing known as life

Vengance i agree with you on this

vu can ruin lives if you get overly addicted

from playing vu
i no longer have a social life

i have to take fundings for my car to buy a laptop

and my family despise me, i have 3 brothers all out there working or at school   and a sister and i am the only one that sits at the computer all day 24/7 looking at a green screen

luckily i took 2 eras breack during gcse's and managed to get 3 passes out of around 11 which is bare minimum to be accepted

i came back to eras ago not planning to make a kd or even stay

is there any help for addicted gamers ? or does it just get worse ? i dont want to ruin my life no more

Or there is one other thing. if you leave your kingdom and dont join another, then you will keep dying and you will get sick of the game and not wanty to play it anymore

I get more then enough exercise with Epyon every day. So actually, VU made me fitter..

I think you are addicted...and Gilth, you are sick. lol.........

I used to get more exercise than I do now, cos im on the pc more. I am cutting down on the amount of time I spend on VU tho...not going really inactive tho, enemies still beware..lol

you have serious issues mate. see a psychartist? that may help

how about not paying your phone bills mate ?

the company will soon cut you off if you can't do it yourself. :P

MR. Random, please let me swap houses with you. I love surfing but rarely get to as I do not live near the sea/

Why is that picure in a different language?

well its not affecting my grades its not affecting my sociol life (i talk on AIM like 7-8 hours a day if i have people to talk to) but i do sit here all day basically eitehr doing school on AI*beep* VU or doing otehr random stuff on the com and my back hurts by the end of the day (but it makes bed more comfortable) would you guys think thats addicted to the game? like i know im addicted but is it voerly addicted? should i take a break and try and actually forgive me? which i would LOVE to do cause im bored enarly all day!

cause i dont want to be ruining my life because i am addicted to this and the computer in general
