Forum Addiction (U Know You\'re Addicted When...)
 
You know you are addicted when...

You have the topic numbers of the topics you are interested in memorized so that you know if there is something new posted or not.

Or...

Have more than one browser up so you can "sit" in a forum.

Or...

Work on your PBW turn while "lurking" in this forum.

(no insult intended...just musing over my habits)

-------------------------

So, "Poll Boy" (that would be me... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif ) strikes again:

Have some fun!

You have commandeered an empty office to work in because someone said they felt "threatened" by the "bullet" image.

"Alt Tab" is faster but the hallways are carpeted and I don't always get a chance.

I HEAR that! When I sneak a turn in (only the ones that don't take a lot of thought), I have to be wary of every sound coming down the cubicles to my "cul de sac".
