Enjoy it while you can.
Yeah. It ends when:

a) you go back to school.
b) you get a job.
c) you are out of money and have to do something to get it.
d) your family calls 911 and tells you are mental or something.
e) you lose all friends and alienate people (hehehe), so when you are 40-50 you die alone, unloved and smelly in your single apartment and nobody will be there to make sure you have a decent funeral.

Yeah, I went nuts with e), but you get the idea.

So far it´s "C" for me.

But I´m getting dangerously close to "E".

That's... a lot of time.

My most was 42 hrs. in a fortnight due to late-night TF2 binges. It would almost certainly be higher if I didn't have a girlfriend to keep happy though...

It sounds worse then it is. You can basically make the same argument (that a lot of time is bad) about most free time activities. TV, movies, books, misc hobbies like stamp collecting, working on cars, driving, going to the bar, cooking, over eating, etc. The only things I can think of that wouldn't qualify is working out, and educating yourself.

Even people who workout a lot still spend a few hours a day doing what amounts to nothing.

In the past 24 hours I have spent six sleeping, a few watching n' hanging, and fourteen playing Fallout 3.
That is a respectable schedule. Mine would be similar if not for school. Fallout 3's addiction rating is roughly equivalent to Jet or Psycho, but it increases exponentially over prolonged periods of time.

I know what you are talking about so much.
My guy is lvl 32 and called Ioxles the Barbarian
I conquered Pravan and Dhirim(I think its called that)and had them given to me by my king and have all but single handedly killed off the Kingdom of Vageirs.

I think you mean enjoyment not fulfilment. Fulfilment goes much deeper and can't be gained from sitting on your own staring at a screen no matter how long you do it.

Haha, That's nothing, if I add up the total amount of time I spend on my computer everyday... lets see... I have to do some math here...

24 Hour weekday - 8 hours School + travel, - 6 hours (often 5) sleep, - 1 hour others.
9x5 = 45
12*x2 = 28

So, that's about 63 hours a week in front of my computer.

*It could be more, but I sleep a LOT during weekends.
