Twice or thrice, it has affected my attendance in class .___. those times when I was playing Iruna online while riding the train, missed my stop and when I looked out of the window, I'm in a whole different place .___. #stupiddays
Not only has it affected me, but the people around me as well. My parents used to call me by my original name. Now they call me "Iruna" or "Iru-Iru" everyday
"Is Iruna still sleeping?" "Tell Iruna it's dinner time!" "Iruna, what's your schedule?" By the time I brought home friends for overnight, they heard about my "new" name, so friends started to call me "Iruna", too .___. and even though I'm taking a break from playing Iruna, the name never fades.

Lmfao at the last bit, now that's why you don't discuss your game life with normies There was a time when I got all my siblings to play Iruna and even had my uncle play it for a bit too D: so that time, my dad was surprised I spread the Iruna virus to the family. I think that was the time he started calling me that name. Unfortunately my siblings and uncle wanted to play other games than Iruna T^T Couldn't help discussing Iruna with them. If I'm doing MQ or events, I'd usually say "I'm doing MQ, can't pause this, don't disturb, please" and they won't disturb while I'm playing. Such wonderful, supporting parents (T//^//T)9 I think it's actually better this way, cos I know some players who are forbidden by their parents to play Iruna (so strict .___.) Anyways, I'm not embarrassed by the way they call me, but it's just weird when friends call me Iruna and someone hears it and asks who Iruna is .___. I think my parents also call me that as an expression of fondness (they. are. cute! :3) but when I make them angry for some reason, they use my original name .___.

For starters, I'm on my computers less xD I use to have 1 computer and 2 laptops surrounding my bed gaming, homework, and watching drama. Now that I play Iruna I found myself only needing the two laptops cuz im doing that gaming on my phone . I. Spent. Way. Over. My. Budget. On. Iruna. <--- Seriously said to myself I won't spend over 100$ on another phone game when I started playing Sometimes skipped classes because its the first day __________ event is on. I wanna farm and stuff I let my soup get cold multiple of times because I was grinding and didn't want to get kicked out of pt for being afk and I kinda became more social than before but still considered anti-social o.o and thats all for now

Iruna somehow became an obstacle during my A-Levels in school. I just couldn't stop playing it day and night. SO...every time I turned up in class after an all-nighter playing this game, I would have my lower eyelids packed and ready to drift off into lala land. Not to mention that my guild-mates and friends in game made me get KIK and Line to communicate with them. And the fact that most of them are from the US and I think a few from the "Land down undah" made it a little harder for me. On the brighter side of this, I have new online friends!
Not only was my dignity affected by this game, my Debit card had also taken a huge dent in terms of "hella" cash. I remember buying heaps of coins for a Fairy silk to add a slot into my Witch hat. I mean, I could've bought a scanner and a printer back then had I not discovered this game.
My sister thought that I was depressed at one point because I won't come out of my room because of playing this game.
I became faster at typing crap on my phone thanks to this game. I'm not the "message me" type of guy, but because of this game, I'm now somewhat "Virtually sociable".
I became a bit more interested in Anime because of my friends in this game, and I'm not sure if that's a weird thing or not.

Hmm...o.o idk where to begin... Well.. first of all, i dont get a lot of sleep q.q
Tbh, not a lot of my rl friends know about me playing iruna because i try to keep it to myself in school. (mostly because not many people where i live would play or even know about this type of games.. especially girls like me '-')
So, i do have a normal life outside of my own iruna world •-•
Except..i go out to hang out with my friends less..than..usual.. i get lazy x.x especially when it comes to days i have good fortune._. I do 'try' to keep up with my rl tho..i think..(?)
but..i definately do less homework.. a lot of times im overdue in most of my classes x.x really lazy when it comes to english essay..science lab reports..etc...(mostly writings..)
When it comes to my parents, they dont really mind me playing iruna 24/7 o.o sometimes they come into my room to ask if i need anything and when they see me playing iruna, they (idk if this is the right word but..) encourages(?) me..playing iruna.. saying stuff like .. i hope you get your rare o.o
im sure they arent really into games nor know much about them but they understand that i like playing iruna and also because i've been playing for a while now.
I'm hoping i can change a bit tho x.x actually doing my school work..and getting more sleep...and..everything else xD

You win Only effect this has had on my life is costing me money and s bit of sleep.. outside of that ive still got my job and wife and generally same life as before. Id say ive spend between 150 to 250 pounds on the game (British pounds)

When I very first got the game, I was absolutely obsessed with it. Had dreams about it. Drew pictures related to it. Talked about it almost all day everyday. Tried getting friends to play it if they weren't already growing tired of me constantly blabbing about it. Hah, what was SLEEP?! The hype eventually leveled down after a couple of weeks, but geez...! I was a mess. Managed to make myself cringe. Nowadays, I only occasionally make the mistake of saying something related to Iruna irl. Example of an event I remember happening:
Friend: Hey, ya got change for a 20? Me: Sorry, I only got one spina. Friend: ...Huh? Me: ...I mean dollar. I only have one...dollar. I said dollar.

Umm... My land lords dog died 0.0
Last night I was solo farming raid 120 and trying to better my time in there. I heard my land lords dog yelping. The little thing (mangy little mut, seriously) was always yapping anyway so I didn't pay it much notice, I kept farming and heard the pitch of the yapping change to maybe distress. The thing always sounded distressed anyway so I didn't pay it much heed and kept farming. It kept yapping. I thought maybe I should actually check on it. I kept farming, intended to go when the buffs ran out... And kept rebuffing. Finally made up my mind to go in after 1 last round. Heard someone else go out and though no more of it (it was like 0100 or so anyway) Well, just found out when I got home that it'd fallen into the pool and couldn't get out... Oops 0.0
