| How many of you have this problem? I find that I have an overwhelming desire to reply to almost everything I read in the forum. I believe I am turning into a Lacadaemonian or The Master although I certainly have a long way to go to match them. This place has a certain addictive qualty to it that I am fighting to overcome. Is anyone else similarly afflicted?  |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? Damnit, yeah ok...maybe a little...although I find that it's a more productive way of spending my breaks from work then blowing the hell out of something in a game for 15 mins |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? Naaah, too many things to do...I just skip to the new posts that interest me, and even then I don't always have something to say...I got cured of the 'must make a comment on everything' a couple of years ago... |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? I think I've got quite the opposite problem - either I can't think of anything worth posting or, if I do, some smart Alec has beaten me to it.  I shall continue my laconic existence in Cyberspace (where no one can hear you type) |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? on a few other message boards i used to respond to everything, but mostly they were just inane comments about someones mother and her resemblance to various fruits and/or animals. i rather just read what other people write on these boards, and chime in occasionally |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? I think with so many different threads and subjects it's impossible to reply to everything. I find one of my major problems is remembering to check up on the threads I have replied to, just to keep track of any new thoughts or if there are comments directed towards me. |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? There is also the appealing rarity of having access to so many people of like mind and similar interest. We may not all get along if we met in real life, but in a meeting of minds and words it's good to be among friends. |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? I have the urge to reply to as much things as I'm knowledgable about. I just can't drop in somewhere, leave an inane comment and disappear again. But the urge to post as often as possible is there and I've lost too many fights against it to bother anymore. You should do the same. Go spammmmmmmming! oops... I meant, post away...  |

| Re: How many of you have this problem? I know it's boring but I try to be disciplined and not reply to every new thread that is started. I focus on the books mostly, and then mostly fantasy. I have to control my enthusiam or I'd not go to work or complete any of my study work |
