[quote name="Cuivienen" date="2024-01-23 11:09:24" ] [quote name="colorscapes" date="2024-01-22 07:54:58" ] i go onto forums, check threads, decide to not post and leave, 2 minutes later i go onto forums again to -again- do absolutely nothing about it and leave, but then i go onto forums AGAIN- it's like checking the refrigerator over and over again. it's the same food, you're not gonna get anything, but staring at it is nice i guess [/quote] I'm so glad it's not just me! [/quote] This is actually what I'm doing right this moment

I forget about everything. Not even kidding. PA? What PA? And a CR?? Didn't know about that. UMA I hopped on the preorder list? I did that??

And the inevitable scrolling through forums. And then giving up and going back to Last Post Wins V2 ;-;

[quote name="Quebeal" date="2024-01-23 18:23:29" ] my bad habit is knowing i lowkey actively do not want new dragon projects then going out of my way scrying and buying G1s or buying up breeding projects when i have NO money, NO space, and the end result requires GEM genes. i am so bad with this it's not even funny... what kind of brain worm is this [/quote] ^ this one I think I've fully gened like. three? G1s in my entire time on the site. I [i]know[/i] I'm never going to gene a fraction of the ones I already have. But I keep buying more! I go 'ooh, this one's got potential' and then I stick them in a box and go back to the auction house. I just spent a bunch of money getting more space in my hibden so I could spend [i]more[/i] money on two matchy purple and light-blue G1s, after buying six other G1s earlier today. I will not! gene! this dragons! I know I won't! In a week I'll be so frustrated by my lack of space, I'll sell them for less than I bought 'em for! But I can't stop. ;3; And that's not even getting into the scrying, I don't think I've ever once paid attention to which genes are which, I guarantee half of my scries have iri or alloy. bleh.

low on food

consider gathering food but that egg i more than likely wont get is too tempting

use all turns on scavenging

no egg :(

spending too much time here in general. i'd be horrified to know how many hours ive spent on here lol.

Achievement hunting. It's all well and good when you get them with a couple clicks, but then the time comes where you're maxing fairgrounds every single day while chasing the 20m fairgrounds treasure achievement.

And all thoughts of taking a break are drowned out by louder thoughts of "it'll be over sooner if I just keep going". HELP ME

i am very completionist... so the daily/weekly and monthly pseudo-achievements are something i keep doing even though most of them are tedious.

not naming dragons. i hate having unnamed dragons. and yet i'm awful at naming things, so i have a bajillion unnamed dragons, and it BOTHERS ME HELP

Gambling...

I love scattering and buying eggs. Eggs are so much cheaper than scattering, too, but I find myself just buying another scatterscroll to just throw onto a dragon because 'hehe, fun'.

I tell myself when I get to certain gem count, to stop. I stop for a bit... and then my monkey brain goes "scatter?" and then I rush to the gem market to buy another two or three. The cycle repeats.

But honestly! I've gotten lucky a few times. My profile dragon was a scatter. That's what counts, right? :,3
