I know VGA (video game addiction) is a problem for many people, or TA (Twitter Addiction), MSA (MySpace Adiction), FBA (FaceBook Addiction) or CLA (Craigslist Addiction). It is so easy for people to trade reality in for a cyber-reality.Dusty Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14038006740293111352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279010084117300155.post-66994395678461646892009-09-26T06:22:38.433-05:002009-09-26T06:22:38.433-05:00Indubidably. :) My wife, son, and I got immensel...Indubidably. :) My wife, son, and I got immensely addicted to a Disney online game, called Toontown. You create animal cartoon characters (cats, dogs, ducks, pigs, etc...), go around cartoony streets, hang out with Mickey, Donald, etc..., and throw pies and squirt selzere bottles at robots that are trying to take over the world. You beef up your character and chat with other people's characters.<br /><br />Problem with all these games is that they're not reality. Yes, you can witness to people, but that's not usually what they're there for, and your opportunities to evangelize are few and far-between. For us, at least, it turned into a real addiction, where I was skipping work, and my wife was neglecting her duties as mother and keeper of the home. She ended up deleting all her toons and quitting cold-turkey, while my son and I play only very rarely.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01028914792240238768noreply@blogger.com
