A bad example is contagious :D. I'm already waiting for a wave of reactions, as someone else will want to do the same :D :D :D. Honestly, I didn't think you would do something like this. Let me explain, you're already in my "inactive" games group on ICQ, and there are so few games listed, and now you're leaving, saying you're trying to quit, like you're such a hardcore gamer :D. I'm surprised, to say the least:rolleyes:. However, if someone constantly tells you that the game is very important to you, that you spend too much time on it, that nothing else interests you, etc., :D then you can easily start believing it yourself:D. Although, in my personal opinion, you just need to look at how many times a month/week you dedicate time to the game. If this number is reasonable and ranges from a few times a month to a few times a week, IMHO, there's nothing wrong with that. But if it's already 30 games a month, then it's worth thinking about... Although, again, it's important how much free time a person can dedicate to the game; if they have a lot of it, why not??? I used to worry about similar questions, and I realized that I wouldn't even consider doing something like that. The main thing is to find harmony in all of this. Between non-stop hardcore gaming and just having fun. *** "Our will cannot be broken, we drank, we drink, and we will drink!" :D :D :D Nevertheless, this is your choice, and you've already made it, so good luck! *** And here's another thought: you're quitting Heroes so that it doesn't interfere with you playing poker! :D
