Sounds like we know the same people! Or at least it's not uncommon. I know some people who's marriage got messed up because of online MMORPG gaming and another couple with problems directly related to how long the husband stays online playing (every waking moment not at work) and a few people who used to post but now only come for an occasional peek at the MMORPG board and leave.
I agree with you about the new game issue, too. Whenever a new game comes out (non mmmorpg) we get an influx of posters. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Happy Friday, btw! I'm on half a day today and happy to be leaving the psycho I work with on her own. She's classic passive-agressive and likes to take out her hostility on me or occasionally the boss... LOL good thing for her she's about to retire!
