Wonderful thread here. Great views here from a great group of people. I started to come to toyark when I was hospitalized, it was a way to get away from the pain that the pain killers couldn't get rid of. It was the only place I had to go, being in isolation not many places to go. Any way a great hobby it just that a great hobby real life comes first no matter what. Sadly though I know people who have let their hobbies ruin their real lives, and these hobbies ranged from video games, collecting and sports. As with anything too much of a good thing can be a bad thing and when something (hobby) becomes an obsession and it's all that one can think about and it interferes with real life then it's time to step away.
