QUOTED FOR TRUTH! :rofl:

I had a (now ex-)boyfriend get really jealous of how much time I spent on NS back in 2003 when I started. He even started a nation for the sole purpose of checking the forums to see if I was playing NS and not talking to him.

I'm myself a recovering NS addict. It had consumed my life for the first couple years I played. But I got over it.

It's still a lot of fun, like everything, in moderation.

Nope, NSG hasn't destroyed my life ... yet. It's given me a place to just hang out and relax.

Nationstates made me study philosophy and politics at university, thus ruining my chances of future employment. Damn you NSG!

Except as a politician, but at no point are you allowed to claim a get out of jail free card for past transgressions before public life by saying 'I never knew I was going to be a politician when I studied politics'. :D

One time I had a dream about Nationstates. When I awoke, I found that my hemen (male hymen, sign of virginity) had regenerated. Also I could hear the color green, but taste yellow and blue. What sort of fucked up senses are those?

Anyway, that's why I'm gone most of the time now.

Well... for start I got my sister and my uncle into this shit so I wouldn´t feel so alone and now people look funny at me and my sister as we dicuss which option is the best to lower civil rights and political freedoms yet not to damage the economy to much :palm:. My mum looks weird at me and shakes her head as I happily bounce around the room while getting my leader and religion and then she later suggests that I get a hobby. xD

That's why we should meet up so you can go postal at us IRL :p

And NS didn't destroy my life. If anything, I decided to destroy my life myself by spending my time on Nationstates :p

Edit: But Nationstates *should* destroy this thread.
