to compliment Adens story I read one a couple years ago about a 25 year old guy that was mentally handicapped (only slightly retarded, lived by himself) - Anyway, he ended up killing himself over Everquest, I guess some chick in the game was "dating" him then hooked up with an orc or something (sorry, dont know anything about everquest other then its fuckin dee dee dee)
So yea, his parents came to his apartment, found him inside and what looked like multiple weeks of food wrappers and bottles, etc. scattered all over, you know, like our desks...
His parents tried to sue Sony saying it was there fault there retard son killed himself...
Oh, and i was addicted to Ultima Online for about a year and half, never as bad as that little whiny fuck..
