Do you honestly believe Hillary wouldn’t start a war to boost the economy?

Naive?

I don’t listen to podcasts. Kinda hard when you’re like 80% deaf.

Hey now, you’re on a roll!

Oh my sweet summer child, personal attacks don’t win arguments. If you’ve never heard a person say, “it’s my body, my problem” then you live in a bubble.

2. A person’s personal issue is a fault of their own, in this case not by choice. If a problem lies within one’s body, not created by their own hand, it is the fault of their body for having the problem (genetics). And since one owns their own body, it is their fault by ownership. One of the biggest mistakes in modern…

If a person gets an artificial high from happy splurging on a game, they have a chemical imbalance if it truly is endorphins pumping through their brain. If a person is “prone to addiction”, again chemical imbalance. Their brains are wired wrong. So wherein does the problem lie? With the chemical imbalance or the…

The endorphins your brain produces are miniscule compared to the amount of their synthetic/natural counterparts produced by pharmaceutical drugs. That’s why you get high, your brain is overloaded.

He doesn’t want us to feel sorry for him, he’s just making it known it’s a issue. Mention “addiction” so everyone will take it seriously.

Oh, nevermind. I was going to mention something like if they have a bank account and plastic,they must be old enough (AO). Or if it’s not ‘their’ money being burned then it’s a parental problem.

Needing something that one consumes in order for them to function in what they perceive to be “normal”.

FFRK was addictive as a game but I didn’t spend much on it. Then I discovered FFBE and honestly since its global release I might have dropped $300; 100 of that on black Friday bundles recently. Not addicted though because I don’t understand how one can be addicted to anything they can’t touch or consume. Half of my…

A parent is making the conscience choice of giving their kid the tool to do endless things they wouldn’t approve of, albeit a smartphone or computer. It’s their responsibility to know what their legally minor child is doing.

One needs a bank account first, right?

Great post. I think either do away witb micro-transactions or just don’t play games that use them but regulate? GTFO. It’s sad whenever there’s an issue or matter at hand, the first thought through someone’s mind is: more regulation.

It means people like the guy in the article aren’t addicts. They’re using it (addiction) as an excuse. This is a matter of self control and poor choices, not addiction.

“you should be angry at a beer maker that is specifically targeting alcoholics.”

Self-control issues =/= addiction.

He’s a hoarder. Except, he can spend actual money to hoard all those in-game items.

I think you’re problem is, you want everything to be regulated hell or high water. In your mind, if something doesn’t go your way because a rule doesn’t exist, you demand the rule to be made.
