Dota addiction.
Is dota taking to much of our lives? Before we started with dota, how much did we played or sat at the computer compared to this moment?

My experiences have led me to the conclusion that dota is taking more time than any other games atm. I'm not jsut talking about dota itself but if you're far into it's nest, you start to idle IRC, you start to write at forum, visit news sites for regular information. My question again, is dota taking to much time?

I remember before I started to play dota, I often layed GTA San Andreas together with my friend but my other friend soon lef me into WC3 and dota. Together with him and some else, we started to play A LOT. We sat maybe 4-5 hours a day. You came home, sat and chat with them in ventrilo or IRC until 11 pm. You maybe think its fun but it slowly starting to rise to a addiction. You cant do your regular Real Life stuffs like training, hang out with friends etc..

My question is, when do you know where to stop and is RL stuffs > virtual life?

My thoughts

i play DotA about 6 hlurs average per day, played for 3 years now, before i even started , i was into anything else, but now when DotA took over, i don't anything interesting but DotA, yes, the addiction has hit me and changed me hell of a lot!

I take DotA over school now, my grades got even better tho, i don't get it at all why that is.

But yes, DotA takes some time away from you, but however, i don't regret discovering DotA at all.

DotA is a well known system of indirect education. It secretly teaches you Maths, English, Science and many other subjects all in one!

I played a lot but had to stop, because i needed more time. School, girlfriend and karate practises take too much time to play more than hour per day.

By the way, i get the feeling that this blog might interest you.
