I have a problem with older players. You spend so much time with Graal I wouldn't be surprised if your kids shoot someone in school or kill someone. When I was younger we always had a computer and my parents weren't on it longer then 30 minutes a day. I would of yelled and complained if they got active in a game online. The time you are spending on this game is time wasting away that you can spend with your family. Get your **** together and realize what is truly important in your life: Family or Graal.

And that reason being? I asked because if you're using your age as an excuse for you to be more knowledgable/dismissing the opinions of others, then that could be a very good reason why you are getting discriminated based on your age.

Funny thing is: I was sarcastic, you obviously are not. Calm down kid, take your pills and go script some ugly code.

So it's alright for children to spend 24 hours a day on the computer and not spend any time with family, but not alright for the adults?

No, that is also bad parenting.

Get your family involved w/ graal...and an extra computer.
Actually, I've seen this before. (It was on some tv show). The thing is, you do have to budget your time. Teenagers don't, that's a given. And they normally won't care that their parents don't (unless they're hogging the only computer!). I'm not saying darlene doesn't budget her time, but she is on often. You gotta do what's right for you and your family. As long as you make up for your onlie time with family activitie, it's really not a big deal.

I'm not on often. I actually play Graal 1 or 2 hours at night, maybe.
And the forums take no time at all.

I just see you on here often, but you're right, that means nothing, a post takes like 5 seconds.
I don't think you have that problem Darlene.

Moonie, can I ask what your children think of you playing on Graal at your age? Their opinions should be the only ones that matter to you in retrospective.

I only asked the question out of curiosity to begin with, but my kids are indifferent about my playing Graal as it takes nothing away from them, and they know I enjoy it, so it's cool with them.
I have 4 kids, 3 are adults.

Probably depends on if attitude is hereditary or not.

So you know for a fact that inside somehow she doesn't feel neglected or isn't teased in school? Also is the boyfriend the girls father?
