Oh yeah, I find the Internet to be very addiciting and entertaining at the same time.The reason why I'm addicted to the internet is because it provides me sources that I need, musics to listen to, and so on with many different things.Well I guess I can say the internet is just that good that you'll never get bored of it.:)

[color=coral]I guess I'm addicted to the net in some ways...it makes me feel more connected to the world, more in a professional sense than a personal one though.

I'm actually getting the Internet for free now, so thankfully, I don't have to worry about Internet bills and such. ^_^

Still, I like to get away from the 'net whenever I can...to keep in touch with the real world. lol

The 'net is great, but there is a lot that it just can't do. :)[/color]

[color=coral]Ahh, that's the most positive thing I've heard all day. :)

That's why all these rules and stuff are necessary...and this one comment is nice to hear -- it shows us that things aren't as gloomy as some believe. ;) [/color]

Something about the maffia and death threats, I recall.


I am soooo addicted to the net. About every five minutes when I'm not home, I check my fav. web sites.(OtakuBoards included!)I play Counter-Strike-an awsome game-for..a long time, the go skateboarding. I can easily pay my Internet bills, even though I don't have alot of money...But my sponsor-ship will change that...

[color=green]Me... addicted? I am not currently addicted to the net, I don't really have the time to. School is such a pain, finals are next week so I have to prepare for those as well. It is more of a responsiblity thing, I have a lot going on at the otaku so naturally it cuts into my free time online (including my time at the boards.) Thankfully school ends in a week, so I once again be a full time otaku addict like I was in V4.[/color]

[color=deeppink]Addicted? I wouldn't say I'm [i]addicted[/i], for I could withdraw myself with only minimal pain, but I'm certainly [i]dependent[/i] on the internet. Without it, I wouldn't have met all the great people here that I've known for...eep...a year![/color]

You took the words right out of my mouth :D

I am not addicted, but it's what I spend most of my free time on (cuz somehow, wherever I move, it's always in the middle of an old peoples area :laugh: ) But anyway, I spend most of my time here.

[color=crimson][size=1]I used to be addicted to the internet because I used to live in chat and stuff. I had this very close group of friends that I had know for about four years. I loved all my online relationships and I got very close to some people. But then everything fell apart in my chat life....

Then I got introduced to the OB, thanks to Anna, and I posted on here alot and made new friends, who are a whole lot cooler than the other ones, who were constantly backstabbing one another and trying to be better than each other. I was still addicted to the net, though...

Then my phone kept getting disconnected, so I wouldn't be able to get online...but I always tried to post on here still from school. And by time my phone did get cut back on, I was dating this guy, so instead of going online everyday, I would talk to him on the phone. And so, my addiction died out.

But now it's summer time and he works during the day, so here I am, and the only reason I get online is to post on these boards!!!!! I'm so addicted to this place. I often refer to it as my internet home. People do love this place, James. It's not gloomy or anything like that.[/color][/size]

I'm addicted to this board, not the 'Net in general. Pretty cool place to talk with people you would have never met otherwise. I'm also pretty addicted to my umpteen e-mail addresses. ^_^;

[B]Are you Addicted to the net? If yes, how badly?

Me? Well, I'm seriously hooked, I hate myself for it... Ughh... my dads gonna kill me because of the telephone bill. :bawl: [/B][/QUOTE]

Yes I am very addicted to the net. I'm on it all the time unless I'm talking to Britty on the phone, playing baseball, or I'm grounded. Thank God we have DSL tho so the phone bill isn't that high. Oh crap wait it is. Long Distance....*coughs* Sorry off the subject. But yes I am very addicted to the net and have been for a while now...

[color=crimson][size=1]It really sucks for you people who have to pay long distance to use the internet. We don't have that problem...so I wonder why some people do....We just pay MSN monthly for internet service and that's it....[/color][/size]

[B]I suppose I am kind of addicted as in I would rather go online than do other things, but I still have a social life and stuff (the fact that I used the words [i] and stuff[/i] kind of prove I don't but anyway). I use the internet as an extension of said Social Life, Music resource, gaming are, Information centre, Its basically an extension of the real world, I do not think it is another world all together.[/B]:)

[color=crimson][size=1]Having a social life on the internet is what makes it addicting, if you read my post on the first page... >.>;;; I had to get a REAL relationship outside of the internet to break my addiction. I'm such a pathetic person, really....*sighs with digust*

EEEEEEE, by the way, I like your banner, even though it is DBZ. It is REALLY pretty. Did you make it yourself?[/color][/size]

I am partly addicted. But I can do other things also. If I'm bored I go on here and talk to people. I am in a fairly close online group, kinda cool. But I am beginning to get more online seeing it's a week break from school.

[color=crimson][size=1]You have a week break from school? What, do you have like, year round school or something? Where you only get a few weeks breaks here and there, never really getting a summer break at all? Of course, the only reason why we have summer break is because back in the day farmers needed their children home from school to harvest the crop. That's why there's an argument in our system for year round school....but that is completely off the topic...[/color][/size]

[B] Ah. I don't think your pathetic, I think your cute, *looks around scared like for Piro* :worried:* awaits deadly blow*:nervous:. Oh and yeah I did make it myself:D I have a load of others but they are pretty much all DBZ, as soon as I get some more anime pics I can make another one. Actually I have an idea, if you put some of your anime artwork on a site, I will download it and make banner out of it, if you like? PM me if you want me to but I am sure you've had better offers. But back on topic:

[color=crimson][size=1]*Laughs and laughs as someone actually thinks she's cute...*

Thanks for the banner offer, I'll get back to you on that one...

If I couldn't talk to people on the internet, I would find it almost pointless to get online unless I was doing research or something. My first internet experience was going into chat, and that is VERY addicting. I moved from AOL chat, to YahooChat, to the Otaku Boards. This is where I'm happy at now, and I plan to stay around for a long time. But I'm just glad I got over my internet addiction...of course, I have been online almost all day today...I got up at lunch, took a shower, and signed directly onto the internet and have been ever since...yes, I am pathetic...[/color][/size]
