Actually I believe MMORPGs is mostly good for you and makes you happy. At least it has been that way for me when I was playing. I'm glad it is that way for you, as well! Hopefully this study will show that, too.

I see. That's kind of cool, that swedish is being taught and spoken at other places in the world except for the nordic countries..

For me the questions about aches and pains and sleeping problems are not really valid to the online gaming subject, I have M.E (Myalgic encephalomyelitis) so I have those anyway.

Maybe sleeping problems are not related to onlinegaming, although for me I did notice going to bed later and later, especially when I was playing MUDs.

I must say, this is by far the most friendly forum i've posted in this far. We enjoy all of your contributions!
