I've been watching WoW addiction confessions on YouTube for the past few hours already, and let me tell you, there's an odd sense of guilty satisfaction. Guilt, because I know how it feels to be addicted to a game and actually lose hours I could've spent on something productive. More importantly, I feel guilt because there's this sick sense of joy in seeing that other folks got it worse than I did. |

lol boot camp for videogames ???? what has the world come toarent threre alot of other addictions in this wrld more servere than videojuegos ??
Now get them addicted to killing real people? Thats idiotic. Take away their virtual weapons and lead them up toward the real thing? They just said that these people had mental problems so they're going to train them how to be real killing machines? Insane!
If you call laser tag "training" them "how to be real killing machines" then you belong with Jack Thompson's crowd.
"Schadenfreude" is indeed the appropriate term, it simply means guilty pleasures, for those to lazy to look it up^^.
So yeah, you got it right :D
but i think bootcamps...against video game addiction...well...i wouldn't put my name under that...
lol, Id want to see blizzard format their servers for april fools' day and see how all of those WoW addicts would react =D
But we'd prolly get kicked of the net by our providers because all of the wow addicts would be massmailing blizzard cloggin up our bandwidth
It's fake the bootcamp doesn't push kids away from videogames. It takes the addicted Chinese kids and makes them participate in China's number economic source...
Currency farming/selling in all our favorite MMORPGs.
Anyway I play video games for 4-5 hours per weeks since I'm always doing homeworks for the university...
But errr, 24h in a row IS a problem, lol. And lobotomising them will just destroy their brain, lol. So stupid!
I saw this in the Washington Post like 3 months ago
NOW! they will think they are in the game. No way that's gonna work.
NO more X360 versus PS3 in a bloody fight to the death. The X360 and PS3 are friends if you own both consoles like me.
For X360 fanboys, my recommendation to you is to buy PS3 consoles, period.

If you are a fanboy for any one party, you will miss out all the rest! You f+cking 25 year old kids! Don’t you even have some money? Get pocket money from your mom and dad? Sigh. You only need $1,000 (tax inclusive and in Canadian dollars) to buy a PS3 console, 2 games, and mandatory accessories. I just spent $3,000 to upgrade my PC last month (best CPU, vid card, mainboard, RAMs). My new Intel CPU ‘ALONE’ is $1,000 (tax inclusive) which is more expensive than the PS3. I bought a new digital camcorder 3 months ago which is $1,200. You ignorant fanboys (with trash like education) can only earn minimum wages. So, for guys like you, the PS3 might be expensive. Sigh, LOL, LMAO, and ROFL >> RFOL = Resistance Fall of LifelessGameAddicts.
lulz
I wouldn't mind going around shooting people in real life as an escape from video games. Since you're not really hurting anybody, it's fine. It's like paintball, if I could paintball instead of gaming, I'd do that all the time. But gaming will have to suffice for my shooting and killing needs.
That seems more fun than a punishment ^_^. They get to go paintballin just because they play video games i wish i was that lucky.
