I'm hooked!

I'm not much of a gamer.. in fact, I'm not one at all - except I've spent the last few days completely immersed in the world of Second Life. I'm not into shooter games, fighting games, racing games, or sports games - so this glorified version of The Sims is right up my alley!

You can build elaborate items, get very specific with your avatar, meet people from all around the world, and even learn a thing or two about anything. If you're good with scripting, 3D animation & design, or want to learn how to do these things - this is the place for you!

I don't know if any of you have every played around with Second Life, or if it even interests you, but for those out there who don't know where to start in the gaming world, I recommend checking out the fantasy 3D land of Second Life!

There is no longer any hope for you.

You are loss to the demon that is Second Life.

We shall pray for your safe deliverance back to the Real World.

Serious, enjoy the game, even though it is painfull addictive.

Yeah, that looks like one of those games designed to form serious addictions.

Sorry to hear about it, you'll get better someday. *hug*
