Hello lotters, some how, things changed..it all happened when i got disconnected or crashed my pc. it seems that i have lost my interest in playing games in face book. frankly, i even lost interest in other games or other money earning sites except mylot. i don't know but some how i have actually got lazy. am sure you guys are still addicted to online games, but i think I've had it. well, just got a new game in my pc to play with. So, ever get tired on being too much addictive into your game? have a nice day..

I used to play Zuma some years back. I spent hours and hours playing it and then one day my computer crashed too... and I discovered other things to do and how much time I had wasted playing it I don't go near any online games since then because I know that I could get hooked again Good to know that you will be here again more often now that you have realised the same thing too

Hello Aunt D. I've never heard of zuma before, although i 've heard of zuma in a different scenario and not a game. my computer crashed last year due to excessive use of pc and downloading a lot of freaking files. well, i did try it out and then it worked for the moment but after loosing my pc and internet last year, that's the time i decided to give up games. and focus on earning online instead. have a great day.

Zuma is a game where you have to bash a lot of coloured balls and get past lots of different levels and it's addicting so I am hoping you will not go and search for it. It was fun but a darn time waster Stick with us here as it is a much more healthy addiction!

I know exactly what you mean. I was totally addicted to farmville, bejeweled and cafe world now I dont visit farmville at all. I play bejeweled once in a great while. Cafe is probably the only game I somewhat keep up with. I try to check it everyday but since I've lost my addiction to it I barely think about it...lol

Cafe world just gets old because of the fact that it seems to slow down even the fastest computers. I played it for so long that I had two million coins at one time but I keep getting too frustrated with the way the computers handle it that I've stopped playing it recently.

It is starting to wear off on me too. I used to play lots of games online, but nowadays I'm just sticking to Mafia Wars and gifting to friends. There are lots of special gifting applications that are really cool out there so I'm giving out friends some and it's awesome that they start to give too. Other than that, I'm just updating news and that's pretty much about it.

Hello Zed, My brother really likes that game to the point of sleeping around late in the morning. i really really don't see any sense of playing games that makes you sleep in the morning with out earning anything, except when you get addicted.

especially networks were not invulnerable, it made me lose the food in the game. I use my older sister facebook and her site is not open, so I'm looking for another game. After not getting the results I get lazy and stop playing online. Maybe there are times when tired we seem to need time to enjoy the pleasures of this life.

Hello may2k8, some games are so addictive that we need to reach a certain level of goal but when we can't get to it that's the time that we get lazy and stop playing. the point of playing games was to enjoy and not get frustrated. they're so many hich tech games that you need to be serious at and then achive it or failed.

I was really addicted playing Farmville. But things turned out very differently when one of our colleagues has spoken this to our superiors.

Hello vmraul, so, how many times you have played the game? how many hours? did your computer crashed because of it? you meanyou are more restrit with your time and not with being over abusing yourself with the computer. yeah, it's hard when you start being active in the game and then get obsessed.

I used to play about 10 games on facebook sometimes more..but I have whittled it down to 2 one that I want to do and one I am being forced to do by my sister in law since she is always needing me to help her with her Zoo..send her animals/gifts,feed them for her and other stuff..I am not really into the zoo at all..but I do like to play castle age on there.. it isn't the best game but better to me then the others. That is great that you are able to break the addiction. I know it helps to be away from them for awhile to help fight it..right now I only do a few money earning sites still..doesn't mean I got lazy about making money but tired of all the hoopla to make it when it seems almost impossible on some sites..and take so long..like 2 years to cashout since you don't have any referrals..and can't buy them or the upgrade.

Hello mtdewgurl, Hahahahaha, you know that's exactly what my nephew and niece did when they actually forced me to play pets in facebook. they just used my account for me to give them gifts worth more than $800 and to think i was newbie at that time. i didn't pursue since they need to go to school and i got to mylot.nice good thing you still came back for online earning.

We are in the same level in here. Before, I had many games that I maintain and play them all at the same time when I logged in Facebook, but now, I rarely open them up and play them every time I log in the site. Although I maintain one game that I play every now and then. But I am not that addicted because I rarely log in my account and check the game everyday like I used to do.

yes, there will come a time that you would be addicted to games in facebook. i have been addicted to sorority wars, mafia wars, vampire wars and others. but there came a time that i would no longer play them. sometimes i would be addicted to a different one or all the same just get tired of it. although, i still pet society, but right now i am about to loose interest in tiki farm.

Hello Brankinney, i also tried vampire wars but it was way to complicated for me, mafia wars? never tried it. i have lost interest on face book games.i only look at face only when something goes wrong with mylot. have a nice day.

Hi LK, I never get addicted to online games. if i have the opprotunity to it then i will kjust enjyo it for awhile then that's it. same with you i am still hook with mylot. i always make it a point to drop by the site and do responses and posts. it's okay...you just need to have a break. maybe you pushed yourself to much to the point of not anymore enjoying it. i hope things will be fine with your pc now.

I play from time to time however I stop myself whenever I feel I'm getting excited again. I realized that I wasted so much time and money playing online games when I had no more funds to sustain for it anymore. I usually get distracted from time to time but I can now somehow control myself.

I have never really played any games on facebook, but I think I know what you're talking about. When I was a kid, I was totally addicted to playing those pokemon games on Gameboy- I would play and play and play, and then one time the battery ran out. At the time, we were all out of replacement batteries so I couldn't play. By the time we did get batteries, I didn't feel like playing anymore.

Hello Mcsweeting, farmville is a good game and user friendly that's why. there's another game called farm town but it's not the same and a bit vague compare to farmville. we all have different interest here and just let her have fun with that game.

I too became victim of the game addiction. I started out with Mafia, Farmville and Cafe World. I only play Mafia wars when someone posts something about it. I can't bear to go into Farmville but until today was still hooked on Cafe World. Now it's just too much hassle with the freezing up all the time and threats of viruses. I just don't really think I can keep playing. I used to spend most of my time here and playing pogo games. I still pay for pogo monthly and only go there about once a week if that just to do badges. That's how I ended up here today. I just can't stand the facebook crap. I'm seriously considering dropping them for good, it's not worth the angst.

I was also addicted to Facebook games. I work at a computer for 10-12 hours a day, with generally only one day off a week and so I spent most of my time online being on Facebook, playing their games. Farmville lasted a few months, but I quickly over that. My next addiction was Cafe World, which was pretty fun. After I started playing, a lot of my family and friends also began playing. But... as with all good things, it came to an end and I haven't been on that for a few days either (much to my friends/family's dismay). Currently I am addicted to MyTown on Facebook. We will see how long that lasts :P.
