It's a disease I tell ya!

It all started simply, I wandered into joeuser by mistake,
Suddenly I was trapped , I saw names and sites of bloggers and wondered who are these people.
I read some and decided to register and comment, lo and behold my first comment and there it was five Points!
I wrote an article and bam! 15 points appeared!
Soon the craving for points became unbearable, one point, five points, fifteen points, it all became a blur, I NEEDED POINTS!
SOON I FOUND MYSELF BEGGING FOR POINTS. http://moderateman.joeuser.com/index.asp?aid=73816
slowly my name climbed the ladder of Joeuser, but not fast enough for me. I became addicted to points, point, point.
The quality of my article fell off, degraded much like the shame of a true addict.
Soon I forgot to shave and shower, I sat at the computer waiting for a comment to an article so I could quickly respond, I forgot to eat, I would sometimes fall of the chair from weakness and hunger. My weight dropped to 94 pounds on my six foot 2 inch frame.
Finally My friends and family had to intervene, I was confronted with the truth! I was a Point-ho and something had to be done so I could withdraw.
At first it was painful, then slowly the agony receded, I started to regain the weight I lost, I showered for the first time in months, I moved the family of crabs in my beard to the house across the street.
Yes My name is moderate man and I am an ex-point whore.
