I hate to admit it but farmville and frontier ville always keeps me busy on facebook... 90% of my friends play it and continually send me crap from it, so i eventually got into it that way...I blame them! LOL I am not as bad as i was once. I only get on there to accept gifts and upgrade the barns or whatever needs to be built, i dont give a crap about the farming or planting or tending the animals anymore so i guess im slowly weaning myself from it LOL

Hi, Farmville is one of the game in facebook and I never get myself addicted to it. I am not a game lover. I saw my husband is playing farmville every day and I think it must be fun ,so that he seem get addicted to it. Since young, I don't really like to play games. Of course , playing a game is good and bad,it is depend on yourself whether you can control your timing or not. You can always play a game everyday with time limitation and on the other hand, you can still do your study well.

There is no such thing as bad influence regarding movies, games, books. You're the one choosing to do it. And you can also choose not to do it. If you think you're addicted, it's not the game's fault, it's yours! Don't blame stuff for your weaknesses.

If it becomes addictive then it is definitely bad. If it is for occasional stress relieve then it should be fine.

I've never played farmville before, but I wouldn't say it's a bad influence. The game itself is harmless, but when people get addicted to it, that's when the trouble starts. Some people have personalities that make them more susceptible to being addicted to online gaming and things of that sort, and it can be very harmful to them and their study habits. However, farmville is just a game. People need to realize this and try to detach themselves from it. It won't go anywhere while you're studying and if you're not playing it, it's not the end of the world. It is, however, harmful to sit in-front of a computer and play around with something that's not real nonstop. If anythings, there are much better things to do with one's time.
