    Does it count as an addiction if it replaces all your real life interaction with people?

    I've been there. What you need is a place to drunkenly moderate. Abuse posters. Ban for no reason. Lock threads where people disagree with you. That sort of thing.

    Yeah I think so.:(

    I'm a bit relieved when the site has downtime so I can leave without wondering whats going on. Very nearly started a number of threads about that which cannot be mentioned when I was under pressure to finish my dissertation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,815 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush


    Was there life before Boards?:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    I talk to my skin and blood mates and be on about what "the lads" be upto. Some funny looks when they find out the lads are internet people who I never met.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    Yes, kinda of.

    I'm addicted to the internet in general.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,350 ✭✭✭skywalker_208


    Im addicted enough. I read alot of posts but dont post that often.
    Been here 6 years and havent reached the 1000 mark yet :)
    Have my favorite half dozen forums or so as well :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 397 ✭✭CommieBaz


    I go through phases of posting loads, then very little, then sometimes not for a few weeks. Rinse, repeat.
