So I'm moving out to a place without internet for 6 months. Normally I'm a hardcore gamer so it's going to be tough.
What are your thoughts... Have you tried this and how successful were you? What are some tips etc.

I do have a smartphone with net, so i'm not completely cut off from the world, but its not the same.

well thanks for your input. Point taken.
How about some more constructive posts please

3DS XL all you need. I assume you wont have access to a computer..

single player games
masturbate

lol same thing, right?

Buy a Guitar

what faceman said

definately dont buy a guitar, you are already suffering by not having internets, why make others around you suffer even more by having to listen to horrible janga jang sounds.

no one wants that.

Distract yourself with some other hobby as mentioned.

Or you don't really want to quit just play off line games.

first few days its hard... your like whens my next train.., what times this on... ect and reach for a browser.

then it gets a bit easier

After using the internet for 2 or 3 years as a teen, I was totally addicted to it. I was also very productive and creative, building heaps of websites, lots of photoshopping, designing levels for games, and most of all I knew people from all over the world in chatrooms.
Going on a holiday or something would DRIVE ME NUTS!

Now I've been using for almost 20 years, I do fuck all on it, I don't talk to anybody, and I don't really care if I can get on or not, as long as I have something to pass the time.

The more the Internet has grown the less I find to do on it, and the fewer people I connect with, etc... Social media my arse aye.

How do you meet people on something like facebook? You can't, it's against facebook policy to add someone you don't already know in real life..... then what's the point, everyone I know in real life is no fun - that was one of the big pros of computers - a whole new world of people with interests in computers and games and adam sandler tapes. Now the same fucking dickheads from real life are on here - why bother having an internet?

yeah whatever happened to free to chat on icq hey thermite

I moved a few times and had trouble getting internet access so sometimes i'd have a 12 week wait. You'll seem bored at first but start taking up other stuff. Read some books, go outside and do some exercise. Get a dog and walk him. Be more productive with your time.

Life can be much more productive without internet access, if your the addict type.

start stockpiling your porn for this 'abstinence' period you deviant

Seems odd to me how people can get away with not being on email 24/7? Different worlds I guess

Smoke e cigs

Get a library card
