Why do i find myself always stuck in front of the computer and play facebook applications?Not only in front of a computer but also away from it, thinking of it while doing other important things. Some others say they're boring, waste of time, childish,useless and whatsoever. But for me, these games are actually helping me in some ways and at the same time improves some of my skills. There are applications that improve your time management, strategy building, planning, business skills. Some apps also improve ones socialization skills and Bargaining skills. But with all of this said, does this imply addiction or just a hobby? If it's addiction, is it good or bad? Well any opinion is correct but its good to know others opinions for they may have an effect on your own opinion as well.

If you stay for a lot of hour for playing video games that is addiction. I cannot say more because i also same with you but i not playing facebook games i playing online games. I like a dance online games. I spend my time around 4 to 5 hours. I always focus music notes in the games makes my eyes are dim. What i can say here you can play video game but you should control yourself to not spend to much time playing video games.

Oh i see. But as what i can see. Were somewhat the same. But i tend to spend a lot of time in watching anime via streaming. And as far as i know regarding addiction, its something that you can't resist doing and once you stop, you get agitated and eventually doing it again after a few hours away or in worst cases just after a few minutes. Though its good to know that you also play games. :) thanks

I also heard of that. About 50 hours of straight playing time i think. That sucks because he didn't think of eating nor sleeping.

I also enjoy playing facebook game s, I love playing sorority every time I reach one level up I want to reach the other . I do think it help with socializing because I have sorority sisters that send me feds . I think its more a hobby at least for me because I dont play it if I have something important to do . As you said I manage my time with all my online activity so it really does help with time management.

Yes that's actually true. You can have friends in-game which might become one of your very closest friends in reality. And games could actually improve your response time too. What i'm saying is about the response time when you need to act quickly and simultaneously thus helps improve your multitasking and reflex skills :).
