    Set a time limit for your computer to turn off after 3 hours. Get some exercise

    What in the world do you do in 5 hours and only go for 24-25?

    Use the ingame alarm and set it to 3 hours or however long you want to play that way you will know.

    I play soccer from 9-11 then 1-3 daily. I get plenty of excercise. The in game timer sounds pretty useful I'll try that. any tips for staying on target when playing? i just can't seem to get anything done when i play.

    Oh that's good :) Dawg it's just a game. As long as you have fun with it just play, you don't NEED to be on target and doing quests, etc. But yeah, try the game timer.Make plans for the day... etc. good luck

    Use parental control and while playing just do quests and don't go fish or something time consuming that takes you off your questing.

    I would also suggest just focus on questing, don't just be messing around in SW or running around naked in IF like some idiots. Do work, mess around for a LITTLE bit, log out, do some IRL things.
