Hi. Blogs
No life. part 2
2009-05-31 19:05:12

I really spend to much time on this site. I must have spent the last three hours on this site doing nothing but tagging pictures, voting, answering posts, uploading more wallpapers, looking for more wallpaper on other sites to upload here, and spacing out from time to time. I don't understand how I can spend needless hours on this site for absolutely no reason other than I like anime. And this tends to happen to me on a daily basis recently. Sometimes even multiple times during the day. I am just trying to subconsciously make up for the three weeks this site was down or am I addicted to this site. Or maybe its a bit of both. Damn, why do I do it. I gain nothing from this. Most might say its a hobby that I am spending to much time on. But there has to be a reason why I waste so much time on this.................Well this ramble has done nothing to answer my question. My wasting time writing this down for others to read only proves my point of spending to much time on this site.................I guess I will just have to deal with it. Whatever you want to call it a hobby , an addiction, boredom or lack of "social life", its bugging my brain............. Crap, now this has left me feeling as if I have some sort mental disorder.

mental disorder? wow, I think you just took it wayyyy too far...

you might be right saying that it is not usual spending so much time on one site alone, but hey if you enjoy it what's the big deal? There are people that play games for 2 or 3 hours a day, or watch tv 3 or 4 hours straight just because they enjoy it.
If you are doing it to get away from other stuff, then it might be another issues that could look into, but as long as it does not become an obsession, you'll be fine.

I used to do the same thing with other sites and other things, and it goes by. You will reach a point when you visit the site less often, and less often, and maybe you will forget about it for a couple weeks, come back... or leave for a few months... and that's life.. You get tired of things, or your interests shift. It has happened to me, and I'm sure it has happened to everyone.

In fact, this site started because I was really into anime, downloading and watching it almost everyday, you could say with no benefit or purpose, but now, it's been months, or even more than a year since I've watched a single episode, and that doesn't stop me from visiting the site, and enjoying the images and talking in the forums.

You might say that being my site and all I might feel obligated to come, but hey, if I didn't enjoy it I wouldn't do it... It is not fun to change servers three times in two months, worrying about the site going down, paying for the server and all, so if I didn't like and felt like we have created and enjoyable site where people come to have a good experience, I would not do it anymore.

My 2 cents!

True, I probably am overreacting.

I have also the time i was on the site "only so". Now i go look only when i heve time and i´m behind PC. That is oft :), but i enjoy it. It make me more fun than learning. And when i should learn is everythin else welcome then thet stupidity i shoul learn :).
I this times it is very dificult to say what is "to have a life". Just enjoy everyting you like and make you happy.

IGC is right... Mental Disorder's wayyyy too far..

But I guess you're right. Spending 2-3 hours because you love anime... I spend at least 6 hours a day watching anime, browsing for wallpapers, looking for news on anime and other things related to it..

Don't worry, were probably the same...
