Play it if you want to, its called self control. Sure, MMO's are sometimes hard to tear yourself away but you need too, and when its getting addictive, stop and ask if it is really THAT good. Ive been addicted time and time again to MMO's and even text RPG's. Anything with grind, and in retrospect they where never THAT good.

So yes, I have had many similar instances like that, but I'm basically immune to that epidemic of EPIC RAIDS!.

I spend the same amount of time playing World of Warcraft as I would spend gaming normally; I consider it, if anything, fortunate that I can play something very social as well as something that accumulates and gets better the more I play it.

2 years, on and off. Never really missed many social gatherings or ever turned down a friend for it, but I certainly wasted many MANY hours on it. So much so that I wish I didn't play it. Oh well, no use dwelling on it though, thats why I don't play MMO's anymore.

Self control.

I play WoW, but not that much.
