NEWS: World of Warcraft is Bad for You!

im pretty sure that most people that play games alot already know this.

Its not so much a games thing...its a addiction thing. If they were not playing games then there would be something else they were addicted to.

Oh and you forgot the couple who had there kid taken away from them cause they played D+D online for a week without feeding the kid.

i'd be six feet under if it wasn't for rested experience. oh, and work, food, and a life, too.

doing most things for long hours without eating or drnking properly will eventually lead to ill health and possibly death, not just computer games

*fap fap fap fap fap*

I'm sorry, wha?

Why am I hungry?

-TM

And jeez, I just got sucked into WoW myself, but @least I know the magnificent wonders of meals, bathroom breaks, and meaningful employment!

Also, off-topic, but it's been a while since we've seen you w/an article, Sid. 'Grats!

-TM

The obsessive playing of MMORPGs can lead to murder too.

I love Bawls.

So much so that a fellow EVE Online player quoted me professing my love of Balws in his bio.

Ok, I have embarrassed myself again.

RPG's should be played with pen and paper, and real people around, you the way the gods intended!

Long live D&D!

ok... yeah Darwin at work! Sorry had to...

it can also lead to RSI

I wish i had time to "binge" on video games. I work for a living! If these people are the 30 somethings still living mom/grandma's basement; is the world really missing them?

More Pew Pew less QQ...proud to be a damm good WoW player and addict

I have seen the might of WOW defeat offers of sex.

theres always time to turn it off for some lovin

I just had to quote this.

Also, Game Fuel is hilarious.

I have played everqwest almost from it's start and my chars are not max out. This is because I know when to quit, as do most of us beside gotta work so can eat and have a roof over my head,

"So - keeping playing safe, kids and always remember to, y’know, eat and stuff."

That reminds me of Baldurs Gate games, they used to remind you that you need to sleep and eat in real life as well as in the game

Video game addiction is SERIOUS BUSINESS.

Sorry, had to.

We already saw this in the WoW group, and one of the valid points people were pointing out is that the game the guy was playing is not listed. Why are we blaming WoW without any reference to it?

Mmm.. warm, brown socks.

I am indeed addicted to WoW.. but I'd go afk for THAT.

"brb secks!"

True say.

And the worst thing is, it's not that much fun.

Damn i just don't get addicts video gamers or what ever but damn it is not like video games make you numb or feel good like a good drug does. so i don't get it. my longest stint was playing Bionical heroes. for a dumb lego game it is actually really fun. i racked up 7 whole hours but i did get up and leave in the middle....went to the store.....ate lunch....painted my spud launcher(another ridiculous and stupid thing to have but damn it's actually fun too) then came back to the game so i racked up like 3 or so hours on the game i never actually played. i life really so bad the the game is better? i don't know and i am a major escapist. i dive my mind into all kinds of stuff just so i don't have to think about the fact that i am alive and this is my reality. hey at least those who have died have died happy doing what they love.

i never saw white Bawls i'll have to try that boy do i love the Blue Bawls though.
