So I am here to confess that I am an addict.  I have spent my time thinking of whether I should ask for help or just continue on.. It has come to my attention that I have hit another milestone in my addiction, this time... 15k posts.... Not sure I would call it a bad addiction.. what do you think?

    Congrats on the milestone! which is a good thing for us, but...
    I would say asking for help is usually a good thing and so is striving for balance in your life Thanks for all your help

    The first step is admitting you have a problem. Good job!

    As rlb has stated, admitting  you have a problem is the first step to recovery. But we don't want that do we? We're here for you brother! Congratulations on your milestone. Very glad you are part of the EVGA family. You're a great person.

    You're not an addict, you can quit whenever you like, you just don't want to.

    15,000? You're in too deep, no rehab can help you now, might as well just go with it.
     
    Embrace your addiction, resistance is futile.

    I mean...it could be worse... You could be X-Ray. He's so far gone in the addiction I don't think he even knows what it is he is addicted to anymore :D

    I am concerned, but I'm happy to see that you've finally admitted to having a problem.
     
    However, if you don't learn to moderate your posting habits, you'll find yourself in a year rocking a Jessica Alba avatar while posting exclusively in the Hardware/Software News section.  Is that the kind of life you want to live, man?
