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

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...
