22. You sometimes subconsciously click on the site's address out of pure habit, even though you meant to visit another website;

45. You have met up with other VFDC members to play VF;

46. You consider yourself a genuine candidate for being made a moderator;

58. You are constantly refreshing the 'Who's Online' page to see who else is as bored as you are;

59. You were pleased to hear that you can now check which thread people are reading - it means you can lurk even more;

60. You know which VF4 character has been recently nick-named 'Pig';

61. You check your computer's internet history and it reads exactly like the list of threads at Versus City;

62. You are well aware that Mr. Bungle and Ice-9 aren't exactly college buddies;

63. You know that 'Prince Hatim' is in fact a VFDC member, and not a British boxer (or a Middle-Eastern sultan's nephew);

64. You start using strange VF acronyms in every day conversation, even to people who have no knowledge of the game;

65. You find yourself waiting several minutes for a super-long thread to load up, even when you've read 98 out of the 100 replies already;

66. You realise that you can skim through the board with near-surgical precision and speed if someone is breaking the cardinal sin of dragging you away from your PC (and, alas, VFDC) (i.e. you know where all the buttons are without even looking at them, and you know which posters interest you, and which don't);

67. You realise that you are checking the board as if it was a TV soap (i.e. more for the insults and flame wars than the VF content);

68. You save threads as offline web pages to view when you're elsewhere, or not connected to the Internet;

69. You store the uploaded photos of VFDC members in a folder on your hard drive;

70. Your mother wakes you up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night claiming you were screaming, "Fuck me, Bungle's gone up the wall again!!"; "C'mon, Adio, Sarah fucking sucks - admit it!!" and "Andy, register already!!" whilst you were asleep*;

71. You count this list to check if there really is 75 points;

72. You reply to a post in furious anger at anyone who dares to spell your name incorrectly;

73. You read the board even when it is going through a dull patch (such as posts like this one);

74. (Help. I can't think of another thing to put!)

75. You realise you must send uk_kid $50 immediately for his efforts in putting together this list (it DID take me all of about half an hour...).


*If number 70 really does apply to you, seak immediate medical advice.
