You know you can't just "adapt" stuff from the DSM-IV-Tr right? Addictive Internet Behavior is not a diagnosis from the DSM, therefore any of the symptoms you just listed are completely false.

I guess you could label this under substance addiction but there's nothing called Addictive Internet Behavior. dumb bitch.

Leave her alone she took a psych class once and was "almost raped "multiple times

The internet addiction course is approved as a continuining education credit for the APA, Board of Behavioral Sciences, and the Board of Registered Nursing.

Message boards are communities of people who usually share a common interest. In this case, the common interest is Everquest. There are many dangers inherent with trusting message boards and/or people who post on these boards.

For example, there are many poopsockers and mouthbreathers who have spent years perfecting their "online persona" via message boards to the point that no one questions them. Because they do not have to prove anything about their character, because it is all in how they communicate with words only, many people are duped by them, and unknowingly support them in their unethical treatment of fellow players. Some of these people even pose as "guild leaders" with altruistic motives.

Take the test.

The internet is a wonderful tool, but the internet has a dark side for everquest enthusiasts. This dark side is nowhere more blatantly obvious than in perusing the multitudes of online "Message Boards" relating to everquest.

How many boards have members that spend most of their night hours (and in many cases, daylight hours as well) online, rather than taking care of their family or taking part in real society and real interaction with physical human beings? How many message boards have weekly or monthly soap-opera-like dramas going on that people are so embroiled with, that they have to take time away from people and things in their real life?

Would you say you fall into this category of board users, Slathar?

Ok, what does a stupid course have to do with anything regarding the DSM-IV-TR? There's courses that count as continuing education for the Board of Nursing on fucking acupuncture.

You're one stupid bitch dog. You're like the stupid blonde bitch on Community whose a psychology major.

ANYWAYS, deciding to use a message board as your primary resource for everquest information can be compared to deciding to use the high school cafeteria community as a primary resource for information about sex - sure, there are a lot of stories, and even a few tidbits of actual fact, but it is not truly reliable.
