When you play in the same elf tribe for 6 years.
... let it go, man, let it go.

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.

When you see a tattoo in game and start wondering how much it would cost, where you should get it, and how large.
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

When you get separated from your friend in a mall, and try to 'way' them
So many times, I've done this...

Then I've realized the 'Way' doesn't exist and I flip out my cell phone. :P

If by weird tribal men you mean Christians then yes.

When you spend quality sleeping time mulling over things you'd have liked to have done differently on Arm. Particularly the night after a character dies.

When you stay up until 3:30 am RPing, and don't want to leave your computer, so you seep on the couch next to it.... And wake up at 10 freakin am!

Is guilty of this -especially- after a character dies who had alot of potential and it was a lame death.

When you stay up too late playing, and start to fall asleep, and "dream" about Arm, and when you wake up, you can't remember it that really happened or not.

When waiting for an app aproval burns this much.
Now you're looking for the secret. But you won't find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be fooled.

When you try to nick a knife off of someone's belt and get caught  :-\

When you IM someone or text them and you start each sentance with say or talk, when you find yourself reaching for your hood everytime you go outside.

Seriously. That level of addiction just isn't healthy.

Not to be an ass or anything, but the Armageddon community, is the last place I'd go looking for advice on how to live my life.  If he/she/it wants to play for 14 hours continuously, and enjoys doing it, then by all means do it, and do it well.  Life is short, and meant to be enjoyed, if you enjoy doing what you're doing, then why change that?

I mean face it, doing anything has its dangers.  Playing armageddon for fourteen hours straight has medical issues, what doesn't? You smoke, you get lung cancer, you drink, you get kidney failure, you go out in the sun for too long, you get skin cancer, you drive, you're liable to get into a wreck.  The way I see it, playing on the computer is one of the least damaging things in life, with pollution, wreckless drivers, second hand smoke -- I'd rather take my chances here.

I had an Arm dream last night, which is unusual.

My character was backstabbed down to somewhere between lights-out and mantis.  As (s)he lay there, I was trying to get an emote typed out, but I kept fumbling and making typos.

:lies here sprawled and bloody, in exactly the manner that healthy conscious people usually don't.
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

Hehe, Reiloth loves me, as does everyone else. I'm everyone's favroite addict.


But seriously, for those that actually talk to me, I was gone most of last week, being ~gasp~ social! Plus, with my back injury, and no school right right... What else is there to do?

When you spend several minutes thinking up a name for your mount. For titling it, in game.

Minutes?  I spent days trying to come up with a clever name for a character's pet rock.   :P

Your mount didn't come with a name?
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,

I mean the name you title your beetle/ox/inix/whathaveyou. So you can pick it out of the bunch for whatever purposes, if you travel with other riders somewhere.

Usually when I buy a mount it doesn't come with a name. An sdesc and main desc yes, but not a name. Those I give them, basing the name on what I think my character would be inclined that particular mount.
