Actually, it's a sign that you ARE addicted, since you're on the forum so often and check everything so thoroughly that you don't need updates.

I, also, check the 'Downs more than I check my email.

If The Downs is your home page, that is unavoidable.

The Downs has been my homepage since a month after I joined, it is now the homepage of the spare computer at my grandparents house because I'm online so much... But I get e-mail updates just in case I missed something, which I did yesterday.

Even though I was on the computer all day.

(One of) the best thing(s) in being at home at last is getting properly online and to BD. Ah, the bliss.

...when upon rereading the WW game you modded two and a half years ago has you pining for the "good old days" when you had:

1) A job you hated
2) Absolutely no social life
3) An unfulfilled desire to get where you are now

and, most pertinently,

4) Time to moderate WW.

Ah... I had fun in those narrations...

When you read the following line in this post by Mister Underhill:

"I read an interesting analysis of the gap between the U.S. and foreign B.O...."

and immediately think of Volo's revelation:

"None sweat quite in the same way as the French do. "

You know your addicted to the Barrow-Downs when there is only about three subjects you like to talk about and they all have to do with the Barrow-Downs...

I have not been on BD for the past four days, I was getting worried that a new Paper Telephone game had started, I could not guess the rest of the quote on Palantir of Fortune, and the new Downer had come out... I thought that I would miss them all.
