What I learned about myself at RHP.

The first thing I learned from when I started is that RHP was a great escape from reality when things in my life were not going so great. I used to spend enormous amounts of time on the forums when I should have been spending them with my wonderful family. It took me quite some time to realize that. I sat in front of my monitor staring at the posts, thinking I had friendships that were not there with people who like myself were doing probably the same. In the past I have watched my kids playing but could not be bothered to go play with them, or even to sit down and talk to my beautiful wife like I should have. Too bad really. I cant get the time back, neither can they.

I woke up one morning and looked around me, and discovered how much time was frittered away with pointless arguments with pointless people about things that really did not matter. I put on my coat and went into the real world and discovered that real life is so much better.

Good luck to all of you who are here, I hope this is your answer to life, I have found it aint mine anymore.

Internet is just for when you're bored, and can't socialise with your friends and family. These people should always come first.

All things in moderation, for most people.

Nothing wrong with a little chess and internet socializing when you aren't neglecting the needs of your family and your own needs.

Too much, and yeah, I agree, odds are you'll find only unhappiness, and/or bring unhappiness to others. Glad you found a path thats working for you.

The guy just called us all pointless people with pointless arguments. I'm not wishing him well.
