Okay, so anyone have been addicted to starcraft here once. I got completley freaked out after loosing a game against two noobs(1v2 TvZ)on the map Lost Temple. It wasn't really my fault, they were rushing the whole fucking time. I just built 6 marines+5 medics+7 firebats to make a quick rush, but failed for their fucking lurkers! Then I go mad, leave the game and they win. Then I realize that I've been addicted to Starcraft. I lost about 3 games yesterday. MAybe it was because I hadn't really played for a while, because I'm sitting and playing Warcraft III as hell, I also play Gladiatus and WoW alot. I love my Blood Elf Mage level 65 :D Anyways, my freak out made me think about something. Now I'm going to quit playing starcraft for a while, but that will only be for a while so I can relax and get off my addiction. Sorry, guys, but that addiction's got to go. I don't like being addicted, even though I'm addicted to 5 things right now, but I haven't gotten freaked out yet, lucky me.... Lol. I don't wanna see myself losing again and smashing my keyboard and my computer into pieces. Because I've got no more money and don't have afford.... Oh, well, I gonna quit playing starcraft now and go out with my friends and start being social!

i've found the easiest way to kill an addiction is overdo it. i played SC pretty much five hours a day everyday for a year, now i don't play it at all 'cos i'm so sick of it

of course that method does waste a lot of time... maybe if you played for 24 hours straight or something

Anyone that cries SC addiction and quits are the first ones to come back crying.
Especially if they attention seek it up.

You have a level 65 on WoW and you think 3 games on starcraft is an addiction?
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

That dosen't work. It's summer vacation right now and I'm playing 7-8 hours a day + watching vods and reps, and it still hasn't gotten boring. -_-

WoW is still fun enough, though, I played it for two years now. I have a level 65 Blood Elf Mage on Burning Crusade, a Human Paladin level 70 on WoW, a Human Gnome level 70 and a Night Elf Druid level 70.... w00t! I fucking own on World of Warcraft.

I remember one time I was on the asia gateway and was playing a PvZ. He was just running around my base burrowing/unburrowing his speed lings attacking my pylons/probes and just generally making me look like a newb - making me so fucking mad! lol........sooo I ripped my mouse out and flung it behind me and ended up breaking my bedroom window!

Hahah starcraft rules...
