As an ex-WoW addict allow me to disagree a bit.
"It's not like anybody suffers from second-hand MMORPG."
this is flat out wrong. Kids suffer when their parents can't bother to change them because they are in the middle of a raid and this boss hasn't been killed yet. Spouses suffer when the amount of time they can spend with their WoW playing spouse dwindles to zero. Parent's suffer when their kids grades head to zero.
So any behavior that can warp your life to that extent is a relatively poor choice with respect to any other behavior that does not.
