Well, you don't know about this and I do, although I've hardly ever used MSIE for a year. Anyway, I've used it for years, too. And I'm not ashamed, but there're better alternatives.

Btw, Sean, you would sleep only 2 hours if you were 13 hours siting in forn of the PC, assuming you waste 1 hour eating and another hour on your way home or hanging around somewhere watching TV whatsoever, then you just don't sleep: Then you're obsessed. You should get to the psychiatrist's... :-/


:P

Is Sean a n00b in browsing? I don't think so, so I don't see from whom you quoted that :^)

doing homework => 4:15pm (best case scenario)
surfing => 6:00pm (so that's less then 2 hours)
30 min to eat => 6:30pm (best case scenario)
surfing for (13-2=) 9 hours => 3:30am

So that's 2 and a half hour to sleep till 6:00am, each day, and you're 14(?).... Why do I find that a bit unbelievable ^o)


EDIT: KeyStorm beated me... :p

Well, that reduces the time at the computer to a 75% of you estimation: 9.25h. Man... gotta get some fresh air... :-/

You don't even eat with your family, you don't go out with your friends? ... that's really sad, I'm afraid to say... :(
I don't think that is somehing to be proud of.
I also sit many hours in front of the PC (today 12h), but I still plan my time to eat with my family, meet friends, do my homework whatsoever outside the comp. You ARE addicted if what you say is true. :S

Oh, please, any mod be so kind and split this offtopic thread, thanks :)

That would be me. :p

I only spend like 6 hours per day online though... I get bored after a few hours online and need to go do something else and kinda clear my mind... :p

Unless I'm actually having fun and keeping occupied... then I can stay in front of the PC for 12 hours straight... :refuck: That's rare though.

Most of the time I don't have dinner with my family. They don't seem to mind. I have far better and important things to attend to ;).

I do go out though, and I have a job too..

Yeah, I read the, but as I knew they would be directly removed I ignored them (so I thought you did, too).
Why do I think so? Guillaume's post was just one line and your reply was like 3 lines, so I thought you meant that for everyone complaining for MSIE.

Now to the off-splitted-topic.

Well, dear Sean,
Computer addiction is a bad thing... It restricts your social live because you don't meet your friends, you chat with them.

Well, it's one of the basic causes of computer addiction. The next step is that you need to get online at least a bit every day. Your mail, as long as it's not serious (like for work, expecting mail from family overseas) doesn't count. And if you don't work with that (if you were willing to work with the comp in te future you would've learnt some coding already).

To my quote again, it was not a joke, but it wasn't meant seriously enough. It's just a way to warn you that internet/computer addiction is one serious illness.

When does it become serious?
When you put being online in front of other relevant things like real social contact with your friends and family, reading, having a gf (or whatever you want to call it) and so on. Things that are an important part in your mental development. Not saying you're dumb, but it may cause you some social troubles.

This just about the illness, I can't say if you suffer it or not, but it could be that, if you try to spend as many hours as possible online, you could be a patient. That's all about it.
