15 - kill nubs lol
16 - but ofc
17 - no
18 - happy
19 - normal cuz its just a game
20 - LAGz make me rly angry

1- 14
2- 17, so 3 years with some interuptions
3- have fun
4- not rly
5- maybe 2/3 hours a day
6- from 4 to 10 depends on days xD
7- yes cos it started to be boring and repetitive, but then I started again on CS
8- I started playing a different game
9- I am addicted to anything I do, in the first times. Now I play just for fun when I have time or when someone needs my help
10- not rly
11- yes, I know it pretty well
12- yeah it can be a phycologic disorder like drug addiction
13- depends on the game, but generally a lot worse than drugs or alchool, it can destroy ur social (family included) life, and it can twist ur mind completely
14- abandon not it the way of never talking to them again, but yes Ive sometimes preffered to play than go out with friends, but not anymore
15- speak with different ppl and listen to their stories, and see how the world is different from my country. I also like to pwn nubz
16- yes ofc, otherwise i wouldnt still play. I have done rly great things in some games that earned me respect and trust of others. Of this is a way to get the aknowledgment u dont get sometimes in RL
17- my RL has some "evidence", but those are marks from the past that are disappearing, now I dont let it interfeer with my RL, game comes second (or third ^^).
18- I feel good if the enemy has honor and is respectable person. i dont feel proud to defeat stupid and brainless ppl that dont know how to play or simply dont respect me (the enemy). When I kill cheaters I feel so proud
19- if I die vs. a good player I congratulate him and I feel happy for him. If I die to a noob i fell bad. If I die to a cheater/hacker/donator I feel like smashing the admin's head
20- Seeing/fighting/loosing to hackers/cheaters/donators/general ppl with advantadges that I cannot achieve
