Yes, you can be a poster child for yet another lost generation. Here's the casting call. Me, I'm holding out for Dr. Phil.

I'm kinda surprised they're not going for the EQ Widow slant. Plain video game addiction is so ... 90's :)

John, check Nick Yee's web site, specifically the Ariadna site. Also read David Greenfield's book.

I have lost my job, quit college, and almost divorced my husband over lineage 2. I started playing the game with my husband. I start to play so much that i stopped going to school and work. I shut my whole family out and even my husband. I never did anything but play lineage. I even had an online boyfriend in lineage who lived 3000 miles away and i thought that i would leave my husband for him. But in the end it was all just fantasy. I need to get my life back, and say goodbye to my fantasy life.
