Signs You're Addicted to the Forums

I know the pain. I am scrounging all the forums in hopes of inspiration and hope.

jenn-

You think you're addicted now? ---you don't know addiction until you are involved with at least three different role playing threads and will be in countless more before this is said and done!!
Come on over to Role Playing and Communal Story Building--I dare ya!

Me too. I can't stop checking over here and on this one other Star Wars site I go on. Especially the past two days. I have the rough draft of a paper due tomorrow morning and I'm to excited about NaNo to get myself to start it.

I've got four different chat threads open right now. Granted, they're not all Nano, but the Nano tab is covering three forums and any intriguing threads contained therein. I've been on pretty much all day every day since the site came back up, and I probably will be until it's all over. *scratches arm impulsively* I don't have a problem!

YOU ARE ALL ALONE.
I'M NOT ADDICTED TO THE FORUMS.
I DON'T HAVE TO POST AND REPLY.
YOU MUST BE SICK TO BE ON THE FORUMS SO MUCH.

I"m addicted because I'm posting in threads that I REALLY don't have any business (or interest) in posting there.

I'm writing this only because I am sick and I really don't know what i"m saying.

Have I told you lately I'm on vacation?

Help!

My proof is my post count. That's how you can tell I'm addicted

Is the other forum I go to just big, or is this one small? I have a measly 5500 posts on the Official Tales of Series Forums.

I should be doing homework right now. Really. I'm going to be scrambling at the last second in a few days.

....You're on here so much they HIRE you...

I pretty much just read the forums. I don't post all that often. Heh. XD

----------

I may not reply that much but I sure am addicted. I go here every single time I use the computer, several times a day.

----------

I don't write much, but yeah, I check the forum waayy too often xD Like now. I'm in class. T_T

I'm putting off homework because of the forums, even after my mom told me that if I don't get my Algebra II and English grades up she'll take away my laptop (AKA no NaNo for me this year).

It's not even that I post a lot, I just end up going through and reading a lot of threads. Still, I do need to find a way to stop coming here all the time!

I am so jealous right now.

Haha ^^

I'm showing slight signs of addiction (I don't post much, but I get email nofications when like 5 different forums have new posts, so it takes me about an hour at least to sift through all my new email at the end of the day).

Also, I should be showering right now because I have to go to school in a half an hour, yet I'm still here....

They should have a rehab for this sort of thing :(

Haha, I'm on here way, way too much for my own good. The only reason my post count isn't through the roof is my extreme tendency to lurk, haha.
Dear god, this does not bode well for November, does it? XD

I'm addicted. Of that there can be no doubt. I force myself to do everything else on this computer and only d it first bc I know there will be no stopping me once I get going

Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say 'infinitely' when you mean 'very'; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.

When your on before school, during school, after school/before work, after work, and when you should be in bed. It's pathetic that I'm on this much :(

----------

"Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak".

I agree, except, for me it's before school,. at school, during school, after school when I'm done with my homework, and when I should be in bed, when my parents are asleep.

You are not alone, PB! I suppose you can call me addicted to them as well. I go on every time I get online. I also post about 15-20 times a day.. Dunno if I could do more. I like to read a lot, and sometimes I don't have any reply to give.

I don't know how I'm going to stay away from them in November... man, it's so tempting!

You spend half your day wondering if any more people have appeared in your regional forum!
You panic when the inevitable forum crash happens on Oct 1st and then again on Nov 1st.
You have the forum hotlinked from your homepage.

I also go on every single time I go online. Sometimes I'll turn on the computer JUST so I can post in the forums :D. I might have to start coming on in the mornings before school, except then my parents will KNOW I have a problem instead of just assuming ;). Never fade away, how do you post so much??? Maybe I will devote this Thursday to spending my entire day just posting all day long :D. Maybe then I'll have over 500 posts.

Yeah. I'm also addicted. I think about NaNo all the time and I check here whenever I come on the computer. Even though I know I check so often there isn't anything new to check. Add me to the "needs help" list.

----------

I can definitely relate to this. I love to converse with people under my fox form, so I spend a lot of time writing back to different posts that catch my eye. It's really difficult, though, when you're waiting for someone to respond, and then someone does, but then you realize that if you respond immediately you kill the thread. So you have to wait at least ten more posts before you reply.
And then there's the Nanomail. I've gotten into a sort of habit of mailing everyone new and explaining again and again my reasons for being a fox and where I am, and then making obscure video game references from classics like Banjo-Kazooie and Star Fox.
I need help. And this is a rare thing for me:
:D

...An emoticon. I rarely ever do those.

There are only 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Probably not. Look how little posts I have. I'm more of a lurker. I'll try to change all that, though!

----------

I was addicted to the forums last year. This year, I've been more of a lurker.

I am so addictied

I think the 'needs help' list is growing very, very fast.
It's basically the only thing I do on the computer nowadays.
I'm aiming for 100 posts by tomorrow :D. The sad thing is, for me it's totally possible.
