Yes I have a survivor character, also made the chopper. Wasted my Saturday with playing,
I guess Mara is laughing now. "I easily tempted this foolish dude again, he plays instead of practicing dhamma"

Re: Online games addiction
You convinced me! I deleted the game, reverted all progress forever. I feel much better.
THANK YOU!

Well done Retourner !!!
It's pretty close to right view about anicca, but the very opposite about anatta... While Dhamma teach how to let all go and die with no accquisitions, survivalism tel you how to protect your life and not to die by acquisition of many sorts of objects
I had a question about being prepper and buddhist at the same time, i think to create a topic about it, perhaps there is some "enlightened preppers" ^^
I used to be a prepper ^^ With food for several mounth, arms, water, medecine, communication etc...oncereturner wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2018 10:37 pm Yes I have a survivor character, also made the chopper.

Re: Online games addiction
My friend. I have one last zombie shooter game on my online account. It's called dead target. I have a lot of "money and gold " in the game thanks to lot of playing and micro transactions. This is not so addictive, but very violent. It says "headshot for money" and and provides simple missions. It celebrates the Chinese new year with golden weapons. I agree with Virgo, I have to steam off after a stressful work. But there must be better ways to do it IMO. It causes adrenaline rush and high blood pressure.
Should I delete this too forever?

Well done my little lamb, said mom ...
If you didn't care
What happened to me
And I didn't care for you
We would zig-zag our way
Through the boredom and pain
Occasionally glancing up through the rain
Wondering which of the
Buggers to blame
And watching for pigs on the wing

Re: Online games addiction
Deleted this game, and all the progress. I found another online game account ( lots of "treasure, gems") called eternium, deleted it too permanently.
There is no game on my device!

I also checked my gaming computer, deleted 31 games, and more than 3500 music files.

Born, become, arisen – made, prepared, short-lived
Bonded by decay and death – a nest for sickness, perishable
Produced by seeking nutriment – not fit to take delight in
Departure from this is peaceful – beyond reasoning and enduring
Unborn, unarisen – free from sorrow and stain
Ceasing of all factors of suffering – stilling of all preparations is bliss
