Retirement

[Iconoclast]

I came to a realization that NS and all online gaming related activities are very harmful to ones mental and physical health (not to mention the bad habbits and blockages it builds).

Therefore I no longer support any online gaming related actitivies.

I have deleted all the game files related to steam and uninstalled all games from my computer to avoid the slavery i was once bonded to.

I am truely sorry for all the harm that I have caused you and your family through my knowing and encouraging you to continue to play.

As for those that continue playing I hope they will attempt to quit online gaming as well and I pray that Half-Life 2 will never be released.  <_<

Good bye and take care. I should always remember your kindness.

*Looks at his computer*

Me: "I control you, got that? Not the other way around... See? Watch me get up and leave, yea that's right... Leave THIS ROOM."

*Slowly walks out of the room...*

Computer: "Riiiiiight... Let's just see about that..."

*A minutes passes*

Computer: "Oh Mi-ke! Remember those episodes of Samurai Champloo you spent all night downloading? BWAHAHAH! DELETE DELETE DELETE!!!"

*A scream rises from the back of the house*

Me: "NoooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! NOT THE ANIME! YOU BASTARD! YOU ROTTEN BASTARD!!!"

Computer: "There there, I did no such thing... Why don't you... Sit down and watch? And maybe when you're done, you can play some Natural-Selection and neglect your studies, like all young men do."

Me: "Hey now... That sounds good, maybe I will sit down... But just for a little while."

Computer: "I own you, do you know that?"

Me: "Did you say something?"

Computer: "Nope, not a thing       "

 :help:




See you soon, Icon

For the first time EVER, Uranium refrains from saying something because it wouldn't be nice!  :p

I actually do that a lot, I just usually don't say so.

Any behavior can be harmful if one becomes obsessed with or addicted to it.  However, the "gaming is evil" standpoint you seem to be adopting is no better.

Has anyone noticed these kind of posts in n-s.org forums?

Yea, every now and then someone feels the need to be given the grand farewell as they ride into the sunset. I hate those posts, it's so demoralizing. It makes me think that everyone is leaving, that the mod is dying. I know thats not the case, (maybe, I don't really know) but regardless, it just makes me feel bad for some reason.

People crave attention, even the people that don't post much/nobody notices much, and they think they'll get the attention they want when they say "Oh noes, I'm quitting (instert game here)". Although usually it ends up being "Uh... Bye... Whoever you are..." thing.

DAYUM xsz!! NICE POST!!! TITLE!!!!

Give the guy a break, let's not throw a big fuss about this. Ok, he decided that games are really bad for him, his decision. We don't agree, our decision.

Icon: If you want to argue your point, you're more than welcome. I, too, disagree with you. Gaming is a hobby like so many others. And I don't see how it's worse for you than, say, reading. Reading doesn't get you any exercise either. Watching TV, though not classified as a hobby by most, is equally unhealthy. At least there's social interaction of a certain extent involved in gaming (just look at LM for a prime example), and gaming also has a lot on TV in terms of interactivity. Sure, gaming ain't sport, but it's got that in common with a lot of hobbies. Why is gaming in particular so bad for you?

Edit:

I pray that Half-Life 2 will never be released.

Might as well pray for the sun rising tomorrow...
