My brother has a serious addiction to League

[Moonstar Akemi]

OP, what you need to do is get your brother to do something relatively mean to you, and then let him keep ruining his life for 20 years. Then come back and say it was all a plan to get back for that relatively mean thing he did to you. Everyone will think you're an evil genius.

Lmfaooo, not a bad plan.

My brother overreacts to league of legends it's so funny

he growls at people on voice chat

Same here. Always screaming at the loving screen even at like 3AM.

Sounds exactly like me at 17. (almost 21 now)

Yelling over a game and being loud got me kicked out of my parents house.
Not to mention I lost all of my real life friends over it.
Since then, 3 years later.. Got a job, got an apartment, got a life.
I literally only talk to my parents and my girlfriend. Tough.

Long story short, I think the only solution is for your brother to get kicked in the ass. Your parents haven't discussed him moving out?

He's not going to know it's a problem until he's gone through something similar.
Telling him to quit isn't going to work. Just let it your parents deal with him.

I don't know you or your brother, but I can relate with your brother. And if my brother tried to tell me to quit, i'd yell at him. *(At the time of course)
Growing up sucks, and your brother is going to figure that out.

I just want to make stuff again!
That's why i'm back. Thanks, if you guys want to see what i'm working on, you can check my profile description.

But really, this topic relates to me a lot. If you want to talk to someone who was like your brother, I'm the guy. I read the first post and thought "is this about me?"

EDIT: Another thing I forgot to mention, if your parents confront him about it in a serious tone just telling him how it is. This might be able to be solved a easier way. I know being able to live at home would have saved me thousands in rent. Easier to go to college too.

Wise words, Pandan. I feel the same way.

Yes, they've discussed him moving out, but only as a suggestion. They haven't threatened to kick him out yet.

Ironically, they've threatened to kick me out a couple times for much smaller reasons, though.

Is he the older brother? Sometimes the older ones get the better hand.
I don't know your parents, so I can't say for certain.

What smaller reasons if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah, brother's nineteen. I'm going on seventeen in November.

The small reasons? They were so pointless I honestly forgot why. I think one of them was that I was going through a certain depression and it naturally causes my parents to act harshly towards me which escalated into a screaming fight when I denied going out to look for a job when I asked to previously; I had denied it because I was too upset at the time. Things are going better now that I've gotten a job though. I'm being much more independent and my parents aren't really being a pain since I'm never really home to be a bother anymore. They're starting to realize that I'm the hardworking one and that my brother is the lazy jerk of the household so they're beginning to shift their anger towards him rather than me.

My parents aren't bad people, just an FYI. We've all just been in a stress-pit for many years now.

Funny you say that, when i was 17 My parents threatened me to get a job or get out. I didn't get one in time, so I had to live at my friends house for a year until I found one. When I got one, they wouldn't let me back. GG ever since.

That's good that they're shifting some of the focus to your deadbeat brother.

Also, HUGE advice. Kiss-ass your parents as much as you possibly can. Living at home > paying rent.
Sure, living away from home is nice. More stuff you can do, but paying rent sucks monkey nuts. Avoid it for as long as possible. Get through college, then move out.

I'm still in it, struggling. Try to be the goodie two shoes. "Yes sir." "Yes ma'm" really help.
Offer to do things other than your regular chores. Don't go overboard obviously, because you'll ware out. But try to stay there.

Source; my life.

Well my parents put up with me just fine as long as I'm not a jerk. :p

In other news: My mom just came in and ranted about my brother. She's telling me she's ready to give him the boot or take the computer he's using away because it isn't his.

I advised my mom to maybe talk to my dad about setting up a plan to where they'd give my brother the "this-is-it-you're-out-if-you-don't-stop" talk. She's considering it.

I don't like playing psychiatrist either, but that's good. Now stop worrying about your brother, and secure your position to live in the house hold for as long as you can.
After you've done that, easy mode from then on out.

Definitely.

My brother stopped playing video games a while ago, but is getting back on the scene. *sigh* I wan't the old Warcraft 2 days back. I have an addiction myself to games, not RTS, but FPS, Open-World, Roguelike, Building, and somewhat of turn-based. I don't really do anything but gaming.

Neither do I. I just work, come home, play games or watch anime, and then sleep.

Even though the games I play (*cough* RuneScape and other stuff *cough*) are addicting, I don't let them control my life. ._.
