This is the 3rd night in a row where I crawled into bed figuring to check the forums for a quick reply and go to sleep and instead found myself watching hours slip by whilst I gave my two cents and defended my words from crazy fanboys.

Am I the only poor soul to be afflicted with this phenomenan?

Goodness no, I've been hopelessly addicted to The Escapist since I first opened my account.

Escapist Addiction is fairly common 'round these parts. We should really start up a support group for coping with it. I'm at work right now... posting, not working.

I'm forcing myself to go to bed earlier (two hours earlier) because I have a strange feeling it's starting to damage my health a bit...

That said I'm only going to be on here a little while longer tonight, I have a test tomorrow anyway.

I don't really get that invested in forums.
Having said that, I was up till 3 o'clock last night trying to catch certain Pokemon.

I think the escapist has played a pretty big part in making me nocturnal, it's not the only contributing factor but it's one of them.

I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm addicted, but I do seem to spend a fair bit of time hanging around here. I don't post much but there's always plenty to read.

The first thousand posts were the best.
Then the second thousand were a blur.
The third were faster still.
Four thousand came and went.
Five thousand I realised that the Escapist wasn't all that special and turned back to real life.
If anyone plans on quoteing me thus:
the Escapist wasn't all that special
SACRILEGE!
Please don't.

I'm a lot less addicted to when I first started. I still visit every day, but I don't spend all my internetting time here.

Maybe it's because I've hit Gonzo and my plans to gain Escapist fame has succeeded...

SUCKERS!

I was addicted. I think I managed to slow myself down here after about 1200 posts. Now I'm on almost every day, but usually only for like half an hour instead of my entire day.

I just seem to be doing a lot more lurking these days than the last couple of months. I don't really have a great deal to say on most of the topics going that I haven't said before so I'm just reading others' posts.

Ever since I made this my exclusive gaming forum home my post count has skyrocketed. I'm down to here and Slate's Fray for the only forums I post in.

Slightly off-topic, but I was just wondering, what kind of a insect is a timefly. A time-travelling fly? A fly that can alter the course of time (that´s scary)? And what are they doing in here? Are they a menace, or a blessing?

And yes, I too occasionally sacrifice sleep in the name of lurking, but that´s okay since I have trouble getting sleep anyway.

But I need the sleep, so I´m going to try. G´night.

For a while I had to force myself to come back here. I wanted to be a part of the community, but I was shy, and assumed I was one of the more annoying new guys.
Then I made a few friends, and eventualy became addicted.
