Yep - you're an addict http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Of course this is coming from someone who had surgery and was logged in to GC less than 24 hours later http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif -- now that is just sad!

I can't help myself - I love you guys!!

Hi my name is Leslie and I'm a Greek Chat-aholic!

when at work, I check the forums almost every 15 minutes and get angry when the lighbulbs don't light up!

I'm definately a GC addict. if i stay the night w/ a friend, i think about what everyone on here is talking about. i cant go to sleep w/o checking it one last time. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif and even when i was in pain from my wisdom teeth i sat at the computer anyways checking up on GC, that's when you know you're addicted. i can't imagine trying to explain this to ANYONE, i dont think anyone can understand except fellow GC-ers.!

I am soooooooo much of a GC-aholic. These are my signs.

1. Back in February after I had my wisdom teeth pulled and returned to work, there was this filter system that made it forbidden to access GC http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif so I would get up early in the morning and reply to topics before I went to work and I would have Ideal08 & 12dn94dst copy and paste topics to my e-mail inbox http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif. This was AFTER me e-mailing the filter system to tell them this was a positive message board where I exchanged educational ideas with others http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif. This was also after I tried EVERYTHING to get it to work, like going back in History. I was soooooo http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif when the filter company went BANKRUPT!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

2. When we discuss certain topics on GC and they come up with my non cyber buddies, I will say oh my friend McCoyRed or AKA2d said "XYZ" and they will say and where do you know them from and when I reply Greekchat, they think I am insane http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif

3. I copy certain FIRECRACKER topics from here to a listserve I am on to see what others think.

4. I have bookmarked all of my favorite GC spots.

5. I too frequently check back to see if people have replied to my comments and QUOTED them http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif or if I am having a cyber difference of opinion I check back more often.

6. There are always 2 windows open, GC and other http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

7. When I post a topic, I check the box that e-mails me everytime someone replies to my topic. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

8. Finally, I am a GC-aholic, last night Ideal08 and I were at a stepshow and we kept saying we wish GCers were here so we could talk about what we saw @ the step show the next day on GC.

There are probably more but these are the ELITE EIGHT http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Love, Honor, Truth

how about when you don't have much of anything to say on here at certain times, yet still want to read posts and check the boards often?

I just joined today & I already love it

I just joined today & I already love it

OK..so I am at work right now. I work for an internet company as my summer job. And I think that my co-workers and boss think I am addicted to porn or something. Haha. I have access to the internet all day and I always keep this window behind the pages I edit. But whenever someone walks by, I click back to the pages I am editing so they don't catch me not working. It's so bad. Haha. Oh man. I swore I was never an "internet dork." I would never surf web pages or anything. Well, I was on exec for my sorority and was searching the internet for some Pi Phi info for meeting and I stumbled upon this site. I would check the boards every day, but never post. Then someone mentioned Pi Phi in a negative way, and I couldn't hold back. That was it, though, I said. I just had to defend myself and I would never go back to the board. Wrong. I am addicted. And in the next few weeks I may have to explain myself to my boss and explain that I am addicted to greekchat.com. Haha

This one wins...
 

Your in the middle of the gulf of mexico, 12 hours from any land and youre checking GC.

Of course I have more inpotrtant things to do, but I am waiting for the dining room to open for lunch.

Am having a blast tho.

Checking GC is like checkin you email.

You start telling your spouse "oh I heard about that on GC" or "we were dicussing that on GC"

AND he knows what you are talking about!

haha..I do the same thing. I'm always telling my mom about things I've seen people post/say on GC. My mom says I spend too much time on it...she calls it my addiction. Last week I went to Florida and missed checking, so it was pretty much the first thing I did when I came home: turned on my computer and checked GC to see all the threads I missed. :D
