Well this is a topic where i can say something too ;b
It's not important if you bot 24/7 or if you "just" handgrind. I guess almost 70-80% of the Silkroad player are addicted to it. I know, every1 says now: No i am not, yeah i thought so too, but that's not right. If you are actually playing it, you see it from a special view. I thought always that i am not addicted to Sro even when i quitted i thought so. But now, after 3-4 month without Sro, i know that i was addicted to it. I am 100% sure that i was. When i was in school, i just "dreamed" what my bot was doin' while i was there and i "dreamed" that i could do later after school (of course in Sro). After i was at home, I ate as fast as i can(!!!), threw my school bag in the edge and went on the Pc. Than i played till 10-11 pm. On the weekend i played the whole evening and when i woke up i started directly again playin' the whole day. Even when there were some festivals like fashing(german festival);D or other festivals where almost every1 meets his friends i just continued playin' Sro. Now i can laught about it too, because now i realised what i No-lifer i srly was. Now i can't imagine how this could happen to me, i am even scared that this will happen to me again, but i don't think so;). Well and the scary part is also, that the most time i didn't like Sro that much. Well when i started to play Sro with a friend, it was "awesome" it was very funny and so on. I had alot fun. But as longer i played and as more i knew about the game i lost the fun, but i didn't quit. It was almost "part" of my life or in other words: I was addicted to it. I don't know how, but i managed to quit a few month ago because i realised that this should stop now. There are two ways: You can tell yourself now: No i am not addicted to Sro bla or Fuck i am addicted i need to stop that. I don't know that any1 will choose the 2. way but idc. xD
I just wanted to tell ya (;
Cheers ;D
