December 8, 200618 yr theMinkey;413659']i don't think you made this post to get actual advice, because you know as well as i do everyone on these forums (including me) is a dumb homo. but it's good that you wrote that all up, writing helps people arrange their thoughts. as for my views on this shit, you have to make a choice at some point in your life to be internetter or irler. in highschool i pretty much became a recluse and just internetted. in college now, i don't go to any parties or talk to anyone, but it doesn't bother me at all, and i'm basically the happiest i've ever been in my life. d0wn, you are obviously not an internetter, because if you really had what it took to be an internetter, you wouldn't make that post. my true best friends have been and always will be ones i met online, just because online i can filter through people so fast and find the person who generates most rifks after writing this i realised most of you only know me because of my forums personality, but in real life i'm not a complete recluse. i have a handfull of great real life friends, and go out every few weekends or two to paint/drink/look foolish. also have a job. ^_______^ also protip for everyone saying internet is the same thing day in and day out: so is real life. Damn! we could be twins!!!
December 8, 200618 yr i've been recently cutting back on my "e-time" at least on myg0t for a while life outside this room im sitting in and your all sitting in is better free music/movies/porn only gets you so far why not go out and make music or movies or porn? haha, meh just live fuck booze, drink socially not just for the sake of getting drunk and drugs not a super smart idea but those are my two biased opinions on that but good luck if im still here when you get back i'll hit you up.
December 8, 200618 yr sounds like its what you need to do but first, stop typing like you are a 7 year old... it makes you look bad
December 8, 200618 yr A few people here have a physical age of under 12 but some have the mental maturity of a child under 13.
December 8, 200618 yr I agree with that one man. I'm prone to the same actions over and over agian. It's bullshit.
December 8, 200618 yr Reading/writing books is my recommendation. You can't go wrong. Best of luck, From your friend, George Orwell
December 8, 200618 yr dude, i know wat u mean so much, i spend way too much time on the internet and playing video games (and i have xbox live too :O_o: ). My advice is to take a break every once in a while, take a vacation, or just go up to the bush. Worx for me if i start getting the same feeling
December 9, 200618 yr That sounds like what I did for most of the summer, then I realized it was really boring and I was missing everything that places outside of my room had to offer and that summer only takes up so much time. You just gotta find something you like doing and do it. One thing that helped me was sports but unless your into that kind of thing they dont really have much to offer. Another was that since Im still in highschool its not that hard to just go up to one of your friends and ask them what theyre doing after school.
December 9, 200618 yr It's when you realize it's become a problem that internet takes too much of your time, like an obcession, gotta chech this gotta check that, that you've taken the first step to the grown-up-real-world. As for me, the IN is just a fun place to spend a moment and check things out and talk shit for a bit, like now. But when it obviously takes the upperhand of your awakened time, its a problem. Advise: Realize that IN is generally BS that doesnt affect real life. Real life is the real thing. Just laugh at folks that take the IT really serious, cos you know you can just shut down your comp and hang with your buddies. Key is not to take it too serious. Maybe it comes with age, i see lots of ppl that believe that anything about him said on IT means the fuc king world... Theres more to it, but my serious muscle have cramped up.
December 9, 200618 yr ok, it's later, and I can't sleep. So i'll respond... I know the feeling. That's how it's felt like this entire semester. I thought I was going to be able to buckle down and get some work done... But instead I got distracted with games and the internet. As such, I'm screwing up in an easy class, and nearly bombing a math class in college. It's hard to break the rituals you have from day to day. Wake up, do whatever, go to work, have 2 beers, and go to bed. That's been mine as of late... And I can't seem to change it. Tonight's been the exception to the 2 beer rule. Hell, it's hard to resist the temptation. I can't even wake up in the mornings anymore thanks to my distractions. I've seen drugs and alcohol change people. Two of them fairly close to me. Alcohol completely changed my dad. IT seems he must have at least a buzz every day. yes, he can afford it, but it's a very pricy habit. Never mind that when he overdrinks he become an overbearing, obnoxious dickhead. Also nevermind that he's in denial about him getting alcohol poisoning. There's more, but I don't feel the need to get into that crap. A friend of mine (used to be in a couple classes with me) OD'd on heroin over the summer if I recall. The fucked up thing is he was clean for months prior to it. He was going places too... He was a good theater tech, and fucked it up with a needle. I don't know your situation with the drugs, but the alcohol is pretty bad. That seems like the first place to change. Find something other than booze and drugs to fill the void. Books, games, sports, studying... Fuck, even sewing or what not. Also, I figure if you just up and ditch it, it's going to be much harder to stay off... Phase it out. Little less of one thing, little more of the other. Good luck with it. Let us know what happened.
December 9, 200618 yr d0wn, my only suggestion is to look for answers other than at the myg0t.com forums. They are fraught with complete losers who make you look like an accomplished nobel prize winner.

Take a good look at how many posts you have, and when you registered on these forums. Juxtapose that with my information. I don't post on these forums that much, and that is mostly because these forums are filled with complete morons. Trying to find intellectuals here is like trying to find cleavage at a nunnery.

December 10, 200618 yr good luck d0wn..j00 R m3n. i did get divorced because of the internets. i used to fuck my wife, spew in her hole and immediately go to my computer and start raging games. i didn't have time to cuddle. i used to ride my ATV's all the time during the 90's.....i was introduced to the internets and lost most of my friends. i joined a band during the summer and it's taking up most of my time. learning new tunes/band practice and starting to gig soon. getting out in the real world is strange man...been away from it for too long. MMORPG games are a huge waste of time. i was playing Silkroad online with r00t, h4x, d3, r4iney, v0dka etc. what a fuckfest of online addiction that bullshit is/was. i stopped working cuz of that shit game. the only way i would get back into that is if i weighed 300+ lbs, had no dick and a pizza face too boot AND A BOT. had some good times in MA with d3, h4x and others...that's always fun for a laff. i can only imagine how addicting/no life WoW is. i'm sure he fucked this dog behind locked doors http://theseoultimes.com/ST/db2/images/1618-20050318092430.jpg
December 10, 200618 yr rifk @ all the people that have problems with the internet and have lost there lifes to it.
December 10, 200618 yr d3;413624']I signed up for this quarter at ITT for some of the same reasons, but im not about to give up the net. hopefully ill have an associates by march 08 and im actually gonna be going to school for the shit i want to do. none of that bs shit like art history classes or motherrfucking philosophy (which i failed 3 times before i passesd it). luckily all the art classes i took are transfering into my program for school at ITT\ Yea Im attending ITT in september. Yeah man its crazy how you have fun on the net but one day it just fucking hits you and your like wow man i need to get the fuck off this thing for awhile
December 10, 200618 yr I do agree with the kid above whos laughing at the ppl who wasted their time ^^, but im sure we all agre with him But what i want to say is - when i first got my pc i was 15 - thats when it was acceptable to play games and stuff.......... and while at school it took my time up out of boredom etc - and tfc was class back then! (and red alert 2...) But im now 20, 21 in march. I just feel im too old to "play games" -- for some reason i find playing console games more acceptable than playing a pc game. But also.............. i went myself, from playing games for fun after school to - as you said.............. going on the same website - you just get in a habit of it - visint gthe same sites, the same shit ........... nothing changes yet you still do it - and tfc - i play it now and again, but its always the same! a computer game! Anyway............... with me i went over the top but i sorted it, you have to keep it in control - you can go on the net - you wont last a month away - e.g. ppl ddo go on msn and things like hat when they are bored but keep it under control - ive forgot the words lol................. keep it in.............. keep it in realtive - ah i dunno wtf the word im looking for lol Anyway to sum it up = i went from playing games when young - to playing games and browsing the same sites all the time - and like you, theres more to liffe - i want to play football, and get back in to swimming............... the net is just..... somit to do when very bored, not a necessity
December 11, 200618 yr Cause life is a game that no one wins, But you deserve a headstart the way your life's goin' So throw in the towel cause your life ain't shit No take that towel and hang yourself with it Life's short and hard like a body-building elf So save the planet and kill yourself If you're feeling down-and-out with what your life's all about Lift your head up high and blow your brains out
December 11, 200618 yr You can go two routes, either you can deny the internet or accept it. it is not a part of your life, or it is your life. I'm not saying people don't use the internet in moderation, but the internet is not just to play leet video games on and make jokes via the anonymity of the internet, the people who use the internet lightly are fools, it can be serious business and i often treat it as such with the exception of a few jokes, or goofy pictures (everyone needs a break sometimes)
