The whole TV vs Computer issue happens a lot. My wife can spend hours watching reruns and Lifetime television :bandhead: Then gets on my case for being on the puter too much. Now if I just sat here and played games for hours (off-line) she would have a point. But instead, I have social contacy with great people like you and my clan. Also I actually speak and laugh with then on Teamspeak. But watching TV gives zero social contact. :WTF: What's worse?

Just hang in there and try to stay possative and remember laughter cures a lot of pain. I've been where you are right now Jess and it will get better.

Agree with ya Pure. Computers are a great way to stay in contact with friends. Games, e-mail, IM, etc.

Too bad some parents can't see this.


As a parent I would be worried if my kids were suffering poor grades or they played DAOC endlessly. ;)

Ditto ALL of that Pure - PLUS They would rather have you watching the idiot box with them even if they're sleeping :bandhead: :bandhead:

Sexy - it isn't you who is wrong. Hang in there. Maybe try to explain to them how interacting with other people on the computer is much better than watching the t.v. like a zombie.

Slash!!! HI!!!! I love your server.. :)


Good luck Sexy.. ;)

Sexy, I think your parents just want you to do more than spend time on the puter. Moderation is the key, too much of any one thing isn't good for anyone. I could spend all day on my PC if I let myself, but I have other things to do, people to spend time with, and I have my hobbies, so I try to get a little time into everything I can, because at the end of the week, I want to be able to say I did more than spend time on the computer. Life is good, enjoy it! :thumbs:

[Sexyjess]

yeah

I had a friend a little younger than you who got crap from his Dad about his gaming time. I sugested that he politely remind his father that other people his age were out drinking and doing drugs, hanging out at fast food joints, and possibly getting into trouble. Would his Father prefere to have his son home, hanging out on the computer with his team and friends at home, in sight. Or would he rather have him outside the home, hanging out with people he doesn't know, where he can't be seen, not knowing what he's doing? Or even sitting on the couch stuffing his face and watching that educational Prime time television? :blink:

Some times we all spend too much time on our computers, but there are far worse things we could be doing.
