Do you have OCD? If so, does this have anything to do with your noding habits?
I don't know what OCD is and I can't be bothered finding out. Isn't that what Jack Nicholson had in that film? I hated that film. 3 3.12% I don't have OCD. 40 41.67% I don't have OCD but I can see why people might get obsessive about this site. 9 9.38% I'm not sure if I have OCD or not. Let me just check. Well, according to an online test I do, but I don't really believe the test. 4 4.17% I have OCD tendencies, but reading and writing on E2 distracts me from my obsessions. It's a welcome break, not a compulsion. 6 6.25% I have OCD tendencies and think I have some small compulsions to do with this site. I thought I'd only post an article or two, but something is keeping me going. 12 12.50% I have OCD tendencies and I am mildly compulsive about E2, but nothing I can't control. I'm working towards getting my homenode picture, can't imagine having much motivation after that. 4 4.17% I obsess a lot here. I monitor my xp pretty closely, I always know when I'm close to overtaking another regular user, and I have to visit the site every day. I guess I might lose interest if I ever get to level 10. 3 3.12% I obsess wildly. All of the above, plus I have to use up all my votes and C!s every day, I have to read all the New Writeups, and I have to find all references to my own name in the catbox archive from the previous day. 0 0.00% I'm screwed. All of the above, plus I have like a million rituals (pages I have to visit every day, upvote/downvote patterns I have to follow, certain ways I have to click on the pages, and so on.) 2 2.08% E2 was specifically designed to turn my OCD brain up to maximum and keep it there. Please help me find a way to leave. 2 2.08% E2 was specifically designed to turn my OCD brain up to maximum and keep it there.
