Signs You Are Addicted to Halo!!!!

[stormin4]

First of all, before you say anything, I know this has been done before on this forum and I read though the entire thing but it was years ago and most of the posts sucked, sorry to say. :(

I may use some of these on my website so if you don't want to be famous :cool: then please don't post. :)

Please let me get us started off with what I think are some good ones:

You have an insatiable desire to melee people that you walk up behind.

You keep nagging your company (or school) to add Halo Day to the list of holidays.

You plan to take 11/9/04 off work (or school) and play Halo 2 until your thumbs have blisters and your eyeballs fall out. :cheers:

Common, bring it!......

Me and my brother are both hardcore Halo addicts.
We play eachother, and pretty much force eachother to get better and better.
Now we both pwn in halo.

We have a few signs of addiction-
First, open and give a quick look through this. http://www.lifespan.org/services/mentalhealth/rih/gambling/signs.htm

Preoccupation: Problem gamers spend a lot of mental energy thinking about the next time they will game, planning their strategy, or thinking of ways to get money for games.

Inability to stop or control gambling: Problem gamers find that they cannot stop gaming when they want to. Maybe they decide to quit altogether but then they still game anyway. When they game, they may try to control the amount of time or money they spend, but they are unable to stick to the limits they set. They often game until their last dollar is gone.

Gaming to escape negative emotions: Problem gamblers may gamble in order to feel better temporarily, or to change their mood. They may feel angry, lonely, bored, anxious or depressed, and they game to escape these emotions. Gaming feels like an escape from their problems. After gaming, the negative feelings return, as bad as ever.
(They miss teh Halo)

Lying to conceal gaming: Problem gamblers have lied to their spouse, family, friends or employer in order to hide or to minimize their gaming.
(In extreme cases, such as mine, the Gamer may have a plan call in sick the day of November 9 and 10 off, just to Game. In this case, Gaming is getting in the way of his priorities.(OMFG noob, Halo 2 IS my priority))

Borrowing to pay for gaming: Debts grow because of gaming. Bills are unpaid. Money that could be used to pay bills is used for gaming. Problem gamers may have borrowed money from family or friends because of the huge rush of great games, or they may fall into great debt soon-Fable, Halo 2, Kingdom Under Fire, etc. They may have sold possessions, stocks or bonds, borrowed from retirement accounts or savings, or gotten a second mortgage because of gaming needs.

Allowing gaming to jeopardize other parts of life: Gaming can ruin marriages, friendships, careers, school performance, and reputations. Divorce, bankruptcy, or legal problems are all closely associated with compulsive gaming.

Ambivalence about quitting or controlling gaming: A problem gamer may say things like:
"I know I should stop but I love to game."
"My wife/husband/partner/parents/children/cat want me to quit but I’m not sure I do."
"Maybe I can slow my gaming to the point where it is manageable."
"I want to quit but don’t think I can. Well, actually...I really don't want to. my wife/husband/partner/parents/children/cat can deal."

WORT!

[stormin4]

That's heavy stuff dude!

This is supposed to be a light-hearted and funny thread! But thanks for your contribution anyway.

[David Luckey]

Storm...I was joking. I basically just changed "gambling" to "gaming"
from this: http://www.lifespan.org/services/mentalhealth/rih/gambling/signs.htm

It was a joke...

[stormin4]

:rofl: Oh, sorry....it was hittin too close to home and I didn't want to deal with it so I just started playing HALO instead!.....

You know you are addicted to Halo if...

...You aim your car for the family of Raccoons crossing the road then scream "Kiltacular!"

...You quickly find a deer to complete your killing spree

...You shove your friend down a steep hill, cause you love that ragdoll effect!

...You cashed in your student loan to buy one of those 5000$ metal Master Chief suits, you NEVER take it off in public.

...You can't understand why the pistol you just bought doesn't have a 2x zoom

...You perpetually look over your shoulder in case some one repspawn's behind you

...You call your woman "Cortana" during sex, cause it turns you on

...Your woman leaves you because of it, and you're pumped about all the time you just gained to play

...You've mounted a chain gun on the back of your Suzuki Sidekick

...You're constanly asking people "where's the flag"?

...You write President Bush to offer him your services in Iraq, quoting that "...shiite muslims are no match for the power of a Spartan".

...Upon questioning, at the police station, after slaughtering all the customers at your nearest EB, as to why the f*** you did that, you reply "I was holding the hill".

...Your last words before being executed are "When I respawn you noobs are gonna get pwned!"

[SoundX]

1) No car is good enough to drive unless it has a gun turret in the back and is highly uncontrolable
2) You like to think of your home more of a base than a place where you live
3) You have a room full of flags that you have captured
4) You can hear a voice in your head that gives comments as like Double Kill, Triple Kill and Kill Tacular
5) The Liabry is the most repetitive annoying flood filled place around
