My internet went down for about 2/3 months earlier this year and that was terrible, I found myself logging on at libraries haha.
Its terrible when you have e-mails to check, lots of messages to check and then you have loads of important people that you only keep in contact through e-mails. And then I cant check news on message boards like these.

I dont like it :P
I check my internet stuff every day, wether it be 10 mins or 5 hours I make time for it.

Maybe around two days, i'd get very bored and miss chatting to everyone and coming on here.

Legend 01-06-2008 01:49 PM

It depends. Of course I could 'live' without the internet, but times when you've nothing better to do, it's a good way to pass the time.

Sometimes I could go a couple of weeks without going online and barely realising because I've been that busy with other things, but then sometimes if my internet is down and I'm sitting doing nothing, you notice it a lot more.

Like today, it's pissing down outside, the tele is rubbish so if I didn't have t'internet, I'd be in for a boring couple of hours.

I agree with Legend, it depends on the circumstances.There's days where you have plenty of other things to do but when I'm bored there's little else I'd rather do than go online.

There's also certain shows I can only watch online.Whilst I have coped without it for weeks in the past, it's a pain when you cant get on.

I couldn't live without it.
I couldn't log onto my MySpace the other day and that nearly killed me so god knows how I would cope without the net at all

:bawling:

Lol

Longest ive lasted was 6 weeks when my computer broke and that was during bb3. When im on holiday i last without it for a while

Lauren 01-06-2008 05:20 PM

Forever, if I wanted. However, I do need it for my degree.

Hugo 01-06-2008 05:22 PM

Depends on what I'm doing really, if I'm just lazing around the house then about 5 hours. But if I'm out a whole day. I don't even consider pn holiday though.

When I'm at home(which is a lot lately-thanks exams) I check every hour for something to do. During the summer usually just go on night. The only time I can stay off for 1 week or so is if I'm in London.

Chrizzle 01-06-2008 05:50 PM

Not very long.

I always go on the itnernet. I had it off for about a week during the holidays late 2006, and I went crazy. All day I was sitting watching daytime TV when everyone else was busy. I would resort to watching kids programmes on CITV, because I didnt have Sky then. Its sad, but true.

Killian 01-06-2008 05:55 PM

I'm so sad. I can only stand two days without it. It's considered an addiction. :laugh:

Ross 01-06-2008 05:58 PM

Probably a week. I need my internet for alot of the stuff I do.

I get bored if I have no internet. I can always find something to do, or play games.

ChelseaFan 01-06-2008 06:47 PM

I can go quite a while, but there's nothing much to do, so it's always good to come online :P

Jake! 01-06-2008 07:03 PM

Around about a year probablly. I go out most the day anyway so I don't really need the internet.

I feel your pain.

Did you have to endure the worst witch? :sad:

Corkie 01-06-2008 07:38 PM

I could go quite a while but I do watch international tv shows on the internet and I would miss them but i'm sure I could catch up.

But I would also miss talking to my friends as I either use myspace or texting to talk to my friends to orginise going out or obvs face to face lol. :laugh:

MarkWaldorf 01-06-2008 10:57 PM

Depends if I need stuff done. If it was broke and I was REALLY bored I would probably go insane.

sol 01-06-2008 11:02 PM

The internet in my halls was down for about 36 hours and I hardly coped lol.
