While I agree addiction to computer games is unhealthy
I'd like to stack up violence related to games against football related violence, which I suspect will will be much, much higher. SO the answer clear: Ban football.

Because football is such a heterosexual game
There is nothing at all gay about watching men in shorts run around after a ball, excluding women, showering together, kissing and cuddling other men to celebrate victory, etc. Oh no.

Virus and an ear infection and I think latterly a cold while my immune system was low, just getting over that now. It's been like a month of heavy cold basically.

Indeed. Wise of you to maintain a healthy mistrust of those that exercise.

I think it dates back to my school days
Anyone who took any joy in games seemed to be a moronic simian. It's a shame really because organised sports at school has left me with a distrust of any kind of excersize, even though some things I'd actually enjoy most likely.

Spot on, addiction to almost anything is unhealthy by definition.
And yeah', football related violence is far far FAR worst than video game related.
