You might be addicted to eRep if…
You go to the Supermarket when you’re hungry, but can’t seem to find any Q5 Food.
You give someone else a gift and get really pissed when they don’t gift you back.
You are confused why it costs you more than $15 to move to Romania.
You refuse to go to the hospital, unless it is in Florida or New Jersey.
You are confused why it costs you more than $300 to buy your first house.
You go on a shopping spree buying grain, oil, diamonds, iron and wood just to prove that a citizen can actually buy these so-called “raw materials” whenever they wish.
You are then confused why you can’t pay 10 newborn babies $1/day each to make weapons from the iron you just bought.
You refuse to leave the Pentagon until they “really understand” that their defense system is useless unless it is a Q5 and supported by a large population.
You are confused why the police aren’t impressed with the “140% incremental damage” you did to that wall with your Q1 weapon, compared to when you fought it with no weapon.
You are now sitting in jail with “the shakes” of withdrawal from not being able to play the game. You realize there are subtle difference between the game and real life. Then you realize this jail time is much like a temp ban and 3.0/5.0 forfeit points. You wonder if the eRep Admins were the ones that ratted you out for hitting that wall!
Feel free to add your own little clever ideas in the comments section! Perhaps I will include them if I ever resurrect this article again in another few months!

You might be addicted if you wrote this too.
I am *DEFINITELY* addicted! 😛
You might be addicted if you feel the need to spam your article as soon as it is no longer visible 😃

Hilaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarious
You might be addicted when your mood depends on what's happening with this game.
Sweet! Q1 weapons for $7!!!! I'm soooooo happy!
WTF!!!! Increase in taxes? That Peguin bowling blows!
Damn, I answered "yes" to almost every question.
Is there a support group?
And if so, do they have wifi so I can access the ATLANTIS section of the US forum during meetings?
Copycat. 😉

A+ for writing a fun article to break up the monotony of angry election articles, though.
"You are then confused why you can’t pay 10 newborn babies $1/day each to make weapons from the iron you just bought."
I CANT?!?!?!?!?!?!
If you are new, read this, it's a great guide, if you are not new, vote it up so more new people can learn! http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/vocab-for-newb-s-794101/1/20" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/voca[..]1/20
Read, vote, comment, subscribe!
lol funny but not new there are alot of these u jsut go to change a few words and it can be about many different games
@ Cerb: I promise you I didn't see your article before I wrote this. This came from an AIM conversation just today, that I turned into an entire article. lol
Interesting coincidence that we did similar articles at the same time, yet we didn't share any of the exact same examples.
So 3 out of the first 10 comments are merely links to other articles. lol I wonder if this 30% rate will continue for the remainder of this article's comments section.
Utterly Awesome Equality 🙂
You ask your boss to perma-ban an employee
Coincidentally, you might be retarded if you consider yourself addicted to a game that requires two clicks a day.
Sorry about spaming, I really want my article to get 30 votes, right now it has 28, anyways it's a really funny article! 🙂
haha
I am
Really, really funny!
Eq, this is great. A few of my own:
You might be addicted to eRep if...
you watch the news and wonder why there is no coverage on Romania and Indonesia
you are in the voting booth and wonder why the other 24 political parties are unrepresented.
you walk up to someone in the street, punch them in the face and wonder how many point that gets you to advance your military career
you are looking for a job on Monster.com and wonder what the various companies quality levels are.
You might be addicted if you are confused about why you didn't get 5 gold when you came to work for 30 days strait.
@Equality: It's fine, my newspaper doesn't have a very large subscription base yet, so I wouldn't have expected you to have read. I was just kidding. 😉
Great minds think alike, though, eh?
i am addicted
a couple work-related ones:
-when you consider a job that pays $50/day an excellent job
-when you expect a bonus for working 30 days in a row
-when you try to get a job thinking the application process consists of pointing to the "help wanted" sign, and being hired on the spot
-when you expect to have a job as a miner in California when you live in Florida.
and one other:
-when your home is entirely wood, your food entirely carbs, and diamond jewelery makes you healthier.
You may be addicted when you pick you have to but back an item from the store and say "Oops, my inventory is full"
You may be addicted to eRep when...
you are surprised for starting your own resistance war
you are the only person to fly Romania to fight in a war
people call you crazy for asking for War Games
you can't find any good hospitals in Indo
You may be addicted when...
...you create an org to send you gifts.
...you are surprised that your health doesn't increase when you receive those gifts.

You might be addicted if you write and article for the newspaper about Romania and Indonesia.
You might be addicted if you get up in 3 in the morning to eat your only meal of the day.
