Yes, NS is quite addicting. Of course, it's still possible for me to break the addiction.

I wouldn't say its very addicting, but I would say it does have a little "grab value" for those who are into such things, and is just generally interesting.

For me, something like Dead Frontier is addicting (at least in most regards). NS is something I check at least twice a day, to answer issues, see replies to my thread posts, to view new topics of interest, and to figure out how to put my nation where I want it to be.

Don't get me wrong, though. I do like it. Just not addicting, per se.

*posts on NSG* Nah, man. That's just something the man feeds you to scare you so you won't do it. It isn't addicting. I can quit. *countinues to post on NSG*

Yes. Since then, I handed my day to day duties to Kim Jong-un, so he can gain experience to immediately lead the DPRK.

It's eating up a small part of my life.

NS isn't a drug. It's a chronic condition.
There was a signature here. It's gone now.

What is this "outside" you speak of? Is there any other life than on NS? If so, I need a twelve-step help group to get there.
You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded. Because the elements, the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars. And the only way they could get into your body is if the stars were kind enough to explode.

So forget Jesus. The stars died so you could be here today.
