(can check multiple options.)
(can re-vote after consideration.)

Consider talking with your family and friends, consulting your family doctor and psychiatrist if you feel any of the above.

I have consulted mine, how about you?

This thread is actually pretty serious. I can guarantee anyone here who plays this game feels 3+ of those a day when they can't play. OP, I salute you for awesome thread.

LOL, good post, but it is more serious on several levels. This game, not unlike anything else done to excess, can really get to you if you let it.

On the brighter side, good to know I'm cured, haha. I had a couple of those symptoms when I played a lot more. :D

Most of the time, it's a feeling of disappointment, because I know I'll most likely not get in due to traffic. So I check the forums for a few minutes, then go do something else.

@Fury - oh crap (no pun intended)

perhaps i should add option ...

"You feel you used to have any 1 or more of the listed symptoms and are now totally convinced you are cured."

consider talking or consulting the pros ... just to be sure.

it was intended ... because as you can see, majority experienced more than 1 of the listed symptoms.

I can honestly say only one on that list I was experiencing..and thats the common "keep thinking/talking about it*..which is natural for any gamer.

I can also say I was addicted to SRO but I'm not sure that talkin/thinkin about it is severe... I never experienced any of the others. But at one time I was starting to get real angry and disgusted with myself for playing too much. I got so angry that I sold my PC.


Now I could care less for SRO. Its one of best game I ever played but it is also the worst game I ever played for reasons you all already know. I haven't played in a while but when I do I just get this bored out feeling after a few minutes. Guess thats what happens when you've been playing since 2006.

I heard SRO 2 is comming out in 2011. I will give it try but if it turns out to be just like the current SRO then I will definitely quit.
