Where are the Boundries?

I have experienced the symptoms and circumstances of playing this online game World of Warcraft. My roomate actually plays quite often, which is apparently what happens to most, and i have had to subside some issues i have had with this game before.

This is actually hard to talk about when you know someone that has found this neccessity with this game. As the article states some psychologists have begun studying this and similar programs and their adverse affects on relationships with these individuals. They say that the endorphins could lead to some psychological dependency. If a particular individual didn't have the best social life and wasn't the best looking in the bunch then this endorphin release mixed with the successful feelings you get when you lead a big group of people into battle and come out on top could cause some deep twisted feelings of accomplishment. It's almost scary to see what these types of simulations can do to actual people when it is ultimately the underlying reason for some parts of personl degredation.
