When the game first started- had so many logging in issues- didn't get on for two weeks at one point- first complaint to ea too...... Drove me crazy not getting on
I had a feeling that I was becoming an addict when I couldn't put my phone down. Now I am checking this forum daily. Oh and this is my first post! I think I may need help.
When I started to get jealous of items other people were buying that I couldn't get...when I started asking others asking to be neighbors every time I had to remove someone...when I couldn't step away from this board when new updates were coming out...when I was only able to sleep for three hours at a time to ensure I was awake at the right time to set people on tasks...
Ok, I realize now I have a searious Tapped Out addiction. It wasn't that I've been playing the game every day for two years or anxiously waiting for updates. For me it was when I started linking my phone to my house speaker system through Bluetooth to play with surround sound.
When did you know?
I laughed so hard at this.
I guess for me it was the first time I missed the daily play bonus . . . . over a year after I started playing. I was like, "oh man, that's the first time I missed the daily bonus." Then I was like "OH MAN! THATS THE FIRST TIME I MISSED THE DAILY BONUS! I'M A CRACKHEAD!"
When I paid overnight shipping for a stylus so I could play. I'd cut my index finger and tapping wasn't registering through the bandaid. It was a tough choice -- play with blood on the screen or get the stylus. Fast.

First time leaving a message for me as well. When I realized I was addicted was during the Stonecutters Event I was having some major Internet issues at home so at night I would drive a few blocks to a nearby elementary school and sit in the parking lot in the dark mooching off the school's wifi. The whole time I was looking around hoping a cop wouldn't show up because I knew there was no good explanation for what I was doing.
For me it was when first faced a week away from springfield on cabin holiday in the woods.
I play the simpsons on the iPad as I don't have an internet connected phone and so took the iPad with me but there was no wi-if in the cabin
The cabin near us though had wi-fi so if you sneeked close enough you could connect which is what I did and even constructed a temporary seat.
I did limit myself to one visit every 24 hours so could set 24 hour tasks and got away with it first night but second night my wife caught me and officially branded me 'sad'.
The funny thing is though that once the secret was out everyone started sneaking to check internet for something or another

This is hilarious!
For me whenever I realize that my characters have completed their tasks but I'm somewhere without WiFi and can't reset them. I get anxiety about the 1.5 hour gap and missed funds.
