I can generally only have one main thread at a time. Generally, it was TET, but now it's my Elfen High roleplay.

My count would be higher, but non-NS roleplays only recently started counting for posts.

My postcount would be higher, but I didn't post very often.

I've participated in a few sports RPs, which are fun, but that never really kept me up at night, so to speak. I really don't know what changed this week. I've posted over 100 times today.

Havl wrote:Hi folks. My name is Havl, and I'm an addict. I've been active on NationStates since 6 December, 2004. I've never had a CTE, and I've logged onto NS at least once a month for almost seven years.

For most of that time, I didn't do much. I posted on the Jolt forums a dozen times, maybe. And I had about 300 posts on the new NS forums, which seems like a lot but really isn't. I guess you could say that I wasn't very active. But then something happened. About two weeks ago, I started posting like crazy (OK, not as crazy as some 50+ posts a day people, but still). I've posted something like 200 posts in two weeks, which is a huge increase for me. And now NS is the first website I check everyday. I keep a browser open to NS as I check other websites. I think about NS at work while I'm away from the computer. If somebody posts a response before I leave for work, I think about my response all day. And, worst of all, I've even started to post in Forum 7.

What's wrong with me? How did I become a forum junkie? Has this ever happened to you? Will it go away, or will it only get worse? Help!

NSG will pull you in.

Do you really need help? Someone earlier told me that, unless NS is affecting your day-to-day life, you're doing fine. Granted, that was advice from a stranger on the Internet...

We actually do strangely enough. Also, TET isn't always running at full speed.
