I'm the same way as Amelia's bf. The first MMORPG I got obsessed with was Ragnarok online. I invested so much money into it. I played on a private server and donated little by little over time. The only reason why I peek onto it every now and again is because my account is actually worth money. Thank goodness I'm not addicted to it anymore. Every time I find a new MMO that strikes my fancy, it get into too much until I either stop or move on to something else.
