Agreed. I played it from launch until April of 2010. It probably was one of the biggest reasons she emotionally separated from me. Now, there are reasons why the game was so attractive to me, that I can't blame the game. But still. I'd like to have those years back.
Well I never played anything like it, so it was just SOOO addicting, played it for 3 years. During that time I failed to realize my W detaching, how much friggin time went by and how fast, and really how I became the laziest person on the planet. Add in my addictive personality and it's been an absolute nightmare for me. I'm not even happy with the "good" times while playing it.
I know we can't change the past, but I'm so happy that I've began "constructive" use of my time and life.
