Convert that into days. Subtract it from your hours of sleep (on average).

Then you will see why that could be a bad thing.

That's completely insane. You're 14, and you've reached over 6 months of play on World of Warcraft? That's ridiculous.

I'd love to know how much time I've spent gaming, but that is one of those facts that I will never be able to find out.

There was a study that has discussed that it takes 10,000 hours to master a skill. That all athletes, musicians, strategy game players (chess), etc. etc. have spent over 10,000 overs to hone their talent.

At this point I know I've beat that mark for video games. At your age I easily had that many hours put into games too, probably more, which you probably do too when it comes to games you play without Xfire on. I spent my early teen years on Starsiege Tribes and Diablo 2, playing 8 - 10 hours a day, more during the summer.

I've been refurbished and reissued, prepackaged and precooked, decontaminated and deloused, but I still smell, sound, look and feel like shit.

New to the video game forums?

Congratulations, you have spent over 200 days playing a freakin video game. You must have WAY too much time on your hands.

It seems he doesn't have any parents either, I'd be worried if my child spent that long at the computer.

Yes I have spent my early years on Diablo 2 but that was before xfire was around. On top of that I play primarily on a 360 where they dont record your hours.

I'll wait in the next three years in which he'll be doing TONS of homework and college applications. Even if you have straight A's, you're still going to have a hard time trying to find some free time.

Really? I'm sure I've come close to that many hours over just a select few games.

Barmasta has spent roughly a solid third of a year playing World of Warcraft.
This saddens me.

It's sad because we don't like the game you play.
Now if it was the game I like, then you would be cool and/or my hero.
