I pretty much live on the internet, but it isnt a necesity.
i can do without myspace or email. i have a phone a car and cash, i can just go out every day.
Wow an illness, is that really all that they can come up with?

F*^K that...there's a difference in using the internet for school work and entertainment and considering W.o.W addicts as having a problem...

It could be actually considered a true problem. Addictive people will choose what to become addicted to. Drugs, alcohol, porn, or what ever, they will become an addict. Personally I think it is just being lazy. If I spend too much time either playing 360 or using the internet, I need to get up and do something outside.

I agree with you 100% on this one here... I mean yes if you forget to eat becuase your to busy on the internet then you have a problem...But this is where i gain all my information entertainment and blah...that doesn't mean im not active ...haha I'm on an Intermural Dodgeball team...which is awesome....This means I like to keep up-to-date by being on the net rather then watching TV
