<div class="IPBDescription">FPS related skin condition</div> I was talking to a friend the other day who plays alot of multiplayer online games like me, and we got into a deep discussion about spots. We came to the conclusion that our skin condition worsened the more we played, and when we sustained for long periods, our skin cleared up.
We thought that possibly the factors causing the spots could be...
<ul>
<li>Late night -lack of sleep.
<li>Prolonged stress.
<li>Improper eating.
<li>Lack of exercise and fresh air.
</ul>
These were the most likely reasons to cause spots while gaming rigorously.
What do you think? Does anyone else get this problem?

You can blame your mom and dad and the genes they gave you for that, not your dell <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
During this vacation:
I spent about as much time as usual sleeping (staying up with the computer rather than homework)
I spent less time out in the sun than usual (even at school it's not much, only walking from class to class)
I spent <i>much</i> more time in front of the computer than usual.
I had relatively healthier meals (homemade as opposed to school cafeteria)
I spent just as little time as usual doing any dedicated exercising.
I had no sodas, coffee, etc. as is my usual.
Over the course of one week, my forehead cleared up of imperfections completely. Here I am on Wednesday of the week just after that happened, and I'm already seeing my usual nerdy pimplyness.
To answer you:
It is probably not lack of sleep (so long as you only stay awake as your body can keep you <i>while not caffeinated or sugar-ed [is that a word?] up</i>.)
It is very likely to be stress, and depending on your eating habits could be that as well.
It may be lack of exercise or fresh air depending on how severe.
My super-scientific conclusion:
We may both be suffering from allergies to work.
Well, everyone knows that having your face too close to your monitor causes face cancer. Spending time away from the computer halts the gamma bombardment and allows the cancer to go into remission.
If you've already had an outbreak, then you already have it and there's no sense in worrying about it. It just slowly gets worse over time, and after ten years or so gets into your eyes and you'll have to start wearing glasses.
I've never heard of anyone dying from it yet, though, except that kid in Ohio.
