Still addicted to non-sense FB games?

damned_dle @damned_dle (3942) • Philippines 18 Oct 10

I am SICK of it. I am 1,200+ level on MW. I cheated on all other games for 3 months or more. It is not worth it. I feel like I wasted months of my life on those games. Thanks to mylot! I realized that now. How about you?
