Everyone has vices... some smoke a lot, some drink a lot, some take drugs, etc... some play.
Playing has become a vice and not a necesity. First you do it out of boredom, of curiosity, then you enjoy it, then you like it, then you over like it, then you want to quit and quit and you return because it already got you in its grasp whether through forum talks, game talks... chit-chat, random MSN convos... they`re all part of the game.
I play because i`m dependent and i`m not affraid to admit it. I`m not that a active player these days, but i still
have to log on a few times a day, even when i go out of town... i still log on. If i`d have time, i`d do other things, like mountain hiking (always wanted to do that)... but i don`t have that much cumulated time, so between working, reading, eating, sleeping i do this... if someone has a recepy to heal my addiction, please tell. I`m sure there are others like me who`d like to hear it.

There is a friend, to which i didn`t spoke for a long time, LoCe... who said about this game that "it`s a way of life". I incline to think that he`s right.
