Sign that you've crafted too much

I saw some yellow flowers today out in the real world and instantly I thought "Yes! I found some Jute! I'd better grab this so I can craft some more" And then I remembered its real life.... This happen to anyone else whose addicted to the game?

    What do you mean with 'outside'?
    Once I was a healer. Then I took a Wrobel to the knee.

    This land of "outside", is it near Highrock? Or do I have to look Elsweyr?

    Not yet...but I bet it will happen to me too in the near future (that always happens to me when I play a game too much). The worst 'game hallucination' happened to me because of The Sims :| Don't even ask...

    Really, you went outside? Now why would you do that if you could be inside playing games?

    Being a programmer and having spent many years in the gaming industry, my main thing is that i always look for misaligned textures everywhere in the real world.
    I hate it when people don't pay attention to details and things aren't aligned or don't wrap correctly. Like bathroom tiles or wallpapers.

    I'm clearly beyond help at this point ...

    Yep, went for a walk yesterday and on the side of the path was a fallen log. Maple!!! Oh yeah, right, oops not in game and not maple...

    I don't think it's too much gaming until you see nameplates hanging over people's heads in real life. Then back it off to just 15 hours a day... ;)
    May all beings have happiness
    May they be free from suffering
    May they find the joy that has never known suffering
    May they be free from attachment and hatred

    No. for the 13 hour server maintenance I just devolve into a state of mindless rage.

    Happened to be at work, after a late night and an all day session of playing. Saw a rock that had a similar shape to a rune, felt like attacking it with my pruning knife!

    It doesn't get bad untill you start disassembling the furniture and other items in the house because they might yield some useful crafting mats.

    but that furniture people leave on the side of the road is fair game....

    Signs you craft too much:

    1) You start collecting and chewing on random flowers to see what properties they have
    2) You take 'alternate' routes to get places...off road..thru alleys..off sidewalks because that is where all the neat crafting mats are
    3) You look at everyday objects and immediately know the amount and types of mats you get from disassembling them
    4) You ask the hot girl/guy their racial item type so you can make something special for them
    5) In restaurants you exclaim loudly 'I know this recipe'
    6) Every rock looks like an invitation to mine
    7) You get a rush when you hear the word 'crafting'
    8) You use your recipe ingredients as your shopping list
    9) You are 100% sure you could make a nice bow out of that pine tree limb that fell on the house
    10) You use rune words instead of english words in conversations
    11) You wonder what you should feed your car to increase it's carrying capacity
    12) You actually make a list of things that mean you craft too much
    13) You are sure alchemy isn't that hard and setup your own lab
    14) You disassemble the sofa to make some nice gloves
    15) You wonder what fish you can catch with random bugs that fly by
    16) When you see a possible mat you immediately run to it so that old woman won't get to it first while screaming 'Mine!'
