So they be very faat and sick:p No i'm not joking just watch on TV or something then you can see how FAT the childrens is:) So i'm just wondering how long time you sit on the computer and if you are FAT:)

Most epic nerds I know are skinny to be honest. And as in skinny I mean skinny, no fat nor muscle really. My friends brother lost like 15 kilos after starting WoW (didn't have time to eat xP)..

The reason you get fat is that you eat more than you consume(?), not that you sit at the pc, but just sitting is a big factor too in getting fat as you don't spend much energy. Fast food and sitting at the pc of course gets you fat, but alot of people don't even spend much time at the computer but eat un-healthy food which (NEWSFLASH!) makes you fat.. Just pretty weird how people assume computers make people fat.. More correctly it'll make you weak and whimpy if you don't do anything, but if you eat crap food too you'll get that nice fat bonus.

But now on-topic.. It sort of varies, but before it was mainly 1-3 to 4-6 hours depending on the day, but these days I'm busy with school and real life so it's pretty much been 0-2 hours per day last weeks.. I don't even play any games so pretty much only thing I do at the pc is talk on msn and browse these forums and other sites :p

When I have pause on school, I always go to the super market, that will make you fat. I've grain 15 kilo's in a year, 10 from the super market and 5 from growing :P.
The time I spend on me pc depends on the amount of home work and soccer training :P. Usually its 1-3 hours a day.

So you don't play RuneScape (http://RuneScape.com) so much right?

@GoF just take steriods after 15 mins of playing :p. I rarely get time to spend on SRL. I have to sneak on at like 4 am in the morning..

The timer on my firefox says about 4-5 hours a day. Sometimes more sometime less. And Gof, you get fat by consuming more calories than you expend. I have a pretty high metabolism still, and when I am not on my computer I am at the gym lifting weights and playing racquetball. ...or eating :p

And no, I do not play runescape legit at all anymore, the only time I manually log in is to re-set players, or move them to a different place.

Maybe around... 6h? But most of the time could be count as sitting and glancing at the screen, tbh I just hang around at IRC...

GoF, one day I thought, "Hmm, maybe I could try the WoW 10 Day trial", but then, it maybe was one of the most important second thoughts in my life, I decided not to because on the 9th day I would've already pre-paid 23 years of it... Yeah, the real nerds that have epic Counter-Strike reflexes are fuck thin and epicly diseased (pimple?) face...

I'm not fat either, more like

I'd say 7-10 hours a day. About half are gaming/goofing off, and the rest is me doing homework.

I honestly can say I spend 14+ hours on the computer (only like two days out of the week though), only because I have so much I have to do on it. I take online college courses, play games, do homework on it. I do have a life though, and I am not fat :P I weigh 170 lbs and I'm 6'0. On my spare time I play basketball with friends and go swimming. I'm probably going to end up being a network administrator or some kind of geological science (yes very different fields of work) though... good money in the network admin stuff but you will get fat lol. I'm also not a wimp, I'm not a football star but I do have a decent build.
Oh here SRL, I made this picture just for you. ;)

0-6...voted 4-6 because that is the most common. I have 4 hours of computer classes at school though and I live in the forest = nothing to do. 14+ hours a day, man you must have the most pale skin in the world (can't really tell from the picture) It seems like that much time could almost make you albino. I don't even stay awake that long. You have to be hardcore.

Does it make your eyes hurt/give you headaches?

I personally thing if you are at a computer more than like 8-9 hours you really need to get a non-electronic hobby. You can get blood clots from sitting so much. Muscle dysentry? Bad stuff happens when you aren't active for long periods of time.

First, it is muscular dystrophy. Second, I doubt those of us who are on the computer that long are on straight. Not to mention, fidgeting a lot while on the computer is actually fairly decent exercise (not enough to replace regular exercise, though).

Leaving my autoers unattended however would probably bring me into the 7-10 range.

1-3 hours of MY actual time on average through a week. Somedays I might not make it to the computer other days I might get to sit down for 3-5 hours because no one is home, I have completed my workout and I do intervals for hockey training.

While I am at work though, I spend about 4-8 hours (depending my hours) on the computer because my job is sitting at a computer monitoring servers and shit.

Besides that I actually do go to the gym (maybe unlike many people here). Training for hockey otherwise or hanging with the people I live with.

At a bare minimum:

7 hours at work (sometimes if it's quiet I can play runescape or read forums).
2 hours around late afternoon/teatime.
4 hours after kids in bed :eek:

That's gotta be too much. Oh and I get quite a few headaches as well but a large pink pill does the trick. ;)

+14, I've always been intressted in computers and coding.
And dude... you don't get fat by sitting at the computer.
You only get fat if you eat wrong or no exercising.
Sitting by the computer without any exercise will make you become stressed,
so I recommend you guys exercise more else you will become emo ;)
Be smart and don't fail at taking care of your body.

I'm not fat, I goto boxing/gym 3 times a week my weight is 67 and I'm 17.
