    Question bad/odd habits you have while gaming

    hey MMO-champs. im curious what all habits you guys have while gaming. good or bad.

    i have a bad/uncomfortable habit of gradually leaning closer to my desk, which after a while hurts my back. i also have a habit of crossing my feet (at my ankles) for whatever reason. the last habit i know of is that i push WAY too hard on the mouse when i click. like i think that doing so will make my damage output go higher.

    how bout you guys?

    I don't know how weird to go so I'm going to go for both ends of the spectrum.

    First one is I cross my legs ridiculously tightly and twist them round as many times as I can, to an almost painful extent, and I don't notice.

    Second one is I tickle that little bit just above my penis but below my belly button. It feels nice

    I tend to drink like 1 glas of water as soon as I die or whatever when playing, so alot of bio breaks for me, haha!

    My desk slowly moves closer and closer to me and further from the wall the longer i stay at it.

    Other than that I don't have many except maybe not hearing my gf sometimes because music is too loud.

    When I was still raiding with my old guild I was smoking a cigarette after every wipe on a stressful boss....

    I completely zone out and ignore my wife when she talks to me, only to find her staring at me a few min later and shaking her head

    I guess this is more of a comfort issue than gaming, but I often shift between leaning very close to the screen and almost lying down on my chair

    I often sit down and calculate arbitrary data, like total gold gain if I sold all auctions (then I found an addon that does it for me, hurray!), to calculating kill:death ratios, or other things like how high percentage the top players in a BG has contributed to damage or healing

    Nothing lasts forever, as they say.
    But at least I can casually play Classic and remember when MMORPGs were good.

    Ohh, this is another one. Cheese.

    After every raid, I will raid the fridge and find some cheese. I guess it's a family thing as my grandad has eaten cheese probably every day for at least the past 30 years, my dad loves it and will occasionally get home and the first thing he'll do is eat a massive slab of cheese before even saying hello.

    Also, although it makes me feel temporarily sick for about 10mins, I always have a massive craving for it when I have a hangover. I just love cheese and seem to eat it all the time :<

    Should try it, about an inch above your penis. Feels pretty good. Don't even know when or why I began doing it.

    well its diffrent for me, when i play my rogue/or holy paladin (mains) im calm on the keyboard. But if i go ret, or lvling a new class in dungeon or whatever im smashing the keyboard >_< there is no calm there, maybe because its new.
    And i do "talk to the pc", if i get a whisper, i might say what im writeing without thinking.
    also saying "lol" irl, non players dont really understand it, but after they got bookface people start to understand "lol,lmao" etc.

    Looks like im the only one with problems.. Ohh well!
