Just points out how these online games can be social life wreckers!

I could write pages on why I hate online games, but I won't!

Suffice to say a mate just cancelled his Final Fantasy Online account after 9 months because everytime I went to see him he was playing it and his wife and me was getting sick of it. He looked at how much time he'd spent online and it was 5 out of the 9 months! That's 150 days or 3,600 HOURS or 6.25 hours/day!

Now that's either addiction, or compulsion due to having to pay each month to play!

Sad thing is now him and one of his kids are playing WOW, and he's just as bad so his wife is back to square one and I don't bother going round as often now, so it's affected my social life too and I don't play the damn thing!
