View Full Version : Post-boxing depression

Everything about life feels boring at the moment to me.
I kinda feel that in a bit, multiboxing is so intense and so rewarding, that most other activities seem pale and uninspiring.
So what happens when you get bored with multiboxing? Major depression. :\

And trolling forums helps cure dperession too :P
Ever tried trolling yourself on the wow forums with an alt? Get an alt from the opposite faction to make an @ post at yourself and let the flaming begin :)

I then told myself to shutup from an alt. Then said 'well played' from a third alt.... I'd find said post but wows search functions appear to be turned off atm. + it wasn't that interesting :)

Borck: I do not!
Zorck: I do not!
Dorck: I do not!
Porck: I do not!
Corck: I do not!
I do it in Barrens chat all the time, some random guy will say something along the lines of some guy is botting 5 characters and I will reply with "I am not!" with all 5 characters. Some people actually get the joke.

^definately lol worthy haha. I do that sometimes in trade chat when it has turned to shit and I'm bored, I'll turn on all keys to be broadcasted so every wow types at once and just chat, so it constantly comes up with 5 similar lines of txt, love people's reactions to it.

I took a month off from boxing and put a bunch of miles on my road bike. I loaded every CD I own into my iTunes library and took care of things I had been neglecting.
I still feel empty without the crew around to comfort me.......

How many ks you got on that bike? I managed to put 1000 km on mine before it was even 3 weeks old lol. Only thing limiting me was school and I wasn't allowed to spend too much time on it with my training schedule (the bike riding was my off-training) :)
But yea, get home from school at 4, bust out a 3 hour ride to the city and back, home in time for dinner at 7.

Theres a thread archived in the OT forums somewhere lol. Anyways I got that cause I'm self conscious when I run outside (I'm not overweight) which makes it all the more ridiculous... who knows. That and I can now watch my tv/movies while I run :)

I hate treadmills, I much prefer running outside. part of the reason why I struggle to do exercise is because it is so boring by myself. At least outside the scenery changes and I can take the dog. And bball is always fun. Also, treadmills are harder (surface wise) to run on compared to grass/dirt.

Well...I can either spend a fair bit of coin on a treadmill which will eventually break and takes up space, or I can run outside for free...hmm :rolleyes:

I kinda feel that in a bit, multiboxing is so intense and so rewarding, that most other activities seem pale and uninspiring.
Every now and then, maybe when i'm just waking up in the morning after a long grind session, I find myself wanting to do a head check to see where my alts are... but not quite enough to make any movement to actually look. It probably gets to the part of my brain that resolves locations and it chokes on the virtual coordinates.
I once played a game called homeworld for such a long time that i kept trying to 3d rotate my desktop so i could get a better view of the icons - wondering why windows didn't work more like the game.
Although I'd never say any of it was a depressing feeling, it was more like thinking so solidly in a new format that i started expecting something more from reality.

I do lots of gym! It relieves the tension from any activities or job that cause the stress, and helps relax on Arenas :)

I have a wife and a 2 year old daughter so when I'm not multiboxing thats pretty much where 100% of the remainder of my spare time goes. Both a good and a bad thing :)

with my DVR I can't watch live TV, if I can FF through all of the commercials I don't watch it.
which is a good thing and a bad thing, if you don't watch the commercials you don't know about any new shows you might want to watch so slowly all of the shows I used watched get canceled.
couple that with last years writers strike (non-stop reruns) and I essentially hate TV now.
I try to relax and watch TV but usually end back up on WoW in 30 minutes because I don't have anything worth watching pre-recoded.

So what happens when you get bored with multiboxing? Major depression. :\ Funny you should say that. I recently stopped boxing due to changes in game that were moving away from casual play. Since then I’ve made it a hobby to find a new replacement game. I’ve tried a few, currently 1 boxing EQ2. It does have the best entertainment value so far, but nothing near what I used to have.
I check the official wow forums often about the double time length BG grind and the forced arena play. No changed as of yet and by the looks of it, it’s not going too. It’s really hard to let go! Least I still have making front pages for the forums here, that’s fun at least :D
On a side note i've been watching lots of movies. Last night I watched this movie, I think it was called Solar Winds maybe? Sounded interesting. OMG that movie sucked. People when a movie sucks that bad don't share that crap for the rest of the world to download and subject us to it.

Plenty of stuff to do between playing WoW, I work out 3-4 times a week (I'd hate to fall into the fat nerd category) and recently started to learn guitar, so that's still new.
I can't stand anime or family guy though.

Oh man Family guy is the best show on Television. Even my daughter agrees. Oddly enough since she was 1 year old every time Family Guy came on she would yell out "GUY GUY!" and run in and sit and stare at the TV for 30 full minutes. She doesn't even like watching TV but she'll glue herself to family guy every time its on. Unfortunately now that shes 2 and 3 months shes just about old enough that we have to stop letting her watch it.
I own season 1-6 on DVD plus the stewie griffen story, personally I think its the best show to ever grace television, and I'm a fan of quite a lot of shows. Its also the ONLY animated show I like.
