Do you get scolded for it too? I know I sure do. x-x;
I never watch TV anymore, because I`m on the computer ALL DAY.
I don`t get out much because I stay inside on the comp too.
I had to buy a new comp because I was afraid of breaking my laptop because of "overuse" and such.
It kept overheating and it`s battery life is down to like;; what. 30 minutes now?

&& just for fun. Think of how many hours you were on this vacation for a day. Multiply that by 30. See how much you were on for a month.
Today I was on for..14 hours.
14 x 30 = 420 hours in a month. O_O;
-gets calculator-
It said 17.5. 17 and a half days on the computer.
More than half of this month. Wow.
Dissapointing -_____-

I don't get scolded for being on the computer all the time, but I do know that I spend way too many hours on it. And right now, I don't really care about my laptop, because the battery pretty much dead. I can't use it without it being plugged in. Until the new battery arrives, I'll be on my laptop for a very long time each day.

everyday, it's You i live for...

Whenever it's a day where I'm absolutely doing nothing. Then I'll be on the computer for about 8 hours. I try to workout, exercise, play console games, hang out with friends for the remaining. On school days, probably always on because 80% of my homework is involved at my computer desk so.. Nonetheless, an average of 6 hours a day.

Why don't you use an electric power point instead?

Not only that. I get banned, sometimes.
But I have some ways of getting around it. dx

I do spend a LOT of time on the computer, sometimes I get sick of it myself >.>
Q: so why am I still here?
A: cos I have nothing better to do but to surf >.> nothing's good on tv, don't like DVDs (I'd rather watch streaming, they have newer series and all xD), lazy to find a job, blahblah reasons.
my parents don't ban me but i ban myself, I take "day-off" from the computer once in a while

lurking is a profession, everyone knows that I'm a billionaire

Wayyy too much.
I used to also spend 14 hours on the internet, but it's been reduced since I have to go to summer school-- so now it's only about 7.
The computer's such a bad distraction. When I need to do homework that requires typing/surfing the web, I always find myself chatting or going on random websites. Then I play some rpg games. -___- It results in getting my modem and/or laptop taken away by parents.

Used to be 14 x 30 = 420 hrs. a month
Currently 7 x 30 = 210 hrs. a month

My grades have suffered so badly ^ ^;

Everyday is different. Sometimes I can go on for total of 23 hours straight, yeah that's how crazy I was.
It was because I was playing 8 hour games, designing graphic layouts and images, etc.

Yes. I spend all day on the computer, The only time I'm not playing is when I'm going somewhere or if I just feel like watching t.v. That pretty much explain why I'm near sighted

My parents gave up on trying to restrict my computer usage.
