ourWorld can be addicting, like crack or cocaine. Which is why we’ve listed several sure signs on why ourWorld is ruining lives. If you’ve experienced any of theses signs below then we suggest seeking a support group. Are there even support groups for ourWorld addicts?
#6. You’re sleep deprived from staying up too late on ourWorld.
All the kids are trying this hot new craze called excessive use of playing ourWorld to the point of physical and mental exhaustion. You can spot these people in society by the bags under their eyes, or their seemingly lack of self-awareness altogether.
Thankfully there are support groups for these kind of people or online gamers. There’s this 12-step program you can see here. Because video game or internet addiction is a real thing and people have died from it.
#5. You think about ourWorld more than you think about anything else.
How many times have you neglected your homework because of ourWorld? Or let’s say you’ve forgotten to feed your dog for 3 days straight and now your dog is looking at you like, “Mmmm, you look awfully tasty right now.”
All of us are a little obsessive. But always remember to prioritize on a scale of 1 to 10. How important is ourWorld to you?
#4. You spend more money in ourWorld than on actual clothes.
Your begging your parents to buy you gems, “Mom!! DAD!!! Why won’t you buy me gems? Don’t you love me?!?!” And when they do buy you gems, you spend them in a total of 10 minutes. Gems come and go so fast.
ourWorld is fun. It’s social. But remember, you’re spending real money on things you can’t touch or feel. Wouldn’t you rather spend that money on nutella?
#3. You spend unhealthy amounts of hours in front of your computer.
What is the longest time you’ve spent in front of your computer screen? It’s a legitimate question. Once, there was this guy who sat in front of his computer screen for so long that he died. In fact, there were 9 of them listed here.
The internet will always be here. Take 5-10 minutes to run to the bathroom. Time yourself. See how fast you can clean, cook, and keep decent hygiene. Don’t worry, we’ll be here when you get back. Now go go go.
#2. You try to dress up like your avatar in real life.
Even though ourWorld is a virtual world game, we still believe they should have their own store. ourWorld has some amazing items.
How many of you would buy real life ourWorld items? Come on, don’t be shy. How do we make an ourWorld store possible? Or at least, let them sell some t-shirts.
#1. You neglect your real life friends for your virtual world friends.
The number one sign ourWorld is ruining your life: your friends think you’re dead. They haven’t heard from you in months. And whenever they do call you and you do pick up; you’re always quick to get off the phone!
Always remember, your virtual life is not your real life. Your friends and family are the most important people who genuinely care about you. Or, at least, we hope they do.
