    Hi to everyone!
    I've read the interesting article about Internet addiction and became angry and even furious. A lot of people loose their relationships and families in order to be engaged in cyberspace...They masturbate and go high while surfing pornsites. They hide from the reality cause they're not able to live in this world. I have to say that people who are addicted to excessive Internet usage are pure dolts that waste their life on stupid and lousy pastime...What's more I suggest shooting them to clean up the enironment. They're not alive people...They're cyberrobots... What do you think?:cool:

    You're going to add to the collection of useless people...Think better of it! Read books, travel! Don't be primitive as a plastic box!

    I wrote it above..."Adicted" means spending all the time chatting, surfing the internet and loosing space and time sense...It's the difficult pshychological disorder...

    I'm addicted. It's an addiction of learning.
    I actively read books and just crave to always learn things. occassionally i've played rpg's.
    I have a life too outside the computer.
    I use the internet to escape boredom. and now focussing on turning it into something i can earn from.

    I know that one day my life is going to be so busy and hectic.
    Right now my boyfriend serves in army. becuase he is posted interstate(his unit) we only see each other every few months. It really sucks.
    Internet kinda brings our family together,not drive it apart.
    my 9yr old cousin and my 15yr old sister chat online all the time.
    As far as porn is concerned i send it on to him! I know he looks at it,he knows i do too ..so i might as well know what he is looking at. I'm not happy about it but when he is surrounded by 18 to 20 somethings asking him for it and stuff.. (even though is in his mid 30's)thats what you get when guys live and work with guys day in and day out. I only occassionally look at porn. I spend more time here a dp and another main forum i frequent than indulging in cybering.
    which i think is quite boring compared to experiencing the real thing. and if i have to wait 3months to get the real thing so be it. At least every 3 months or so i can feel the real thing,and just feel.Inbetween catching up with him in person i almost feel numb.

    so you know everyone's reasons for addiction are different. And it's not only what i've stated above.
    I love technology and computers long before internet was even born.

    Im addicted for sure :D. But you don't need p**n sites when you have a girlfriend. Basically being online is like having a job. If you didn't waste your "time" online. Then you would be wasting your day at work. I rather have my job online :D much easier, more pay! and im my own boss.

    I'm addicted but not in that way. A few weeks ago I was stuck without net and it almost drove me to insanity. I'd sit around and stare doing nothing. The internet is extremely powerful, I can't imagine life without it.

    I wouldn't say I'm addicted, but it doesn't mean I dont love it like a brother :p

    But I've just gotten internet back after 3 months of issues, and after that it's changed my perspective on the internet. It's so much moreboring? :p
