I've heard the same arguement for porn sites.

It was a good reason for no longer grooming dogs, but not quitting RIA....Last I remember, I wasn't on a schedule or had to wrestle anything to be on here.

I usually write RIA entries in one of two situations: (1) while on the computer at work, or (2) while sitting on the couch watching TV and drinking tequila. The second situation isn't exactly an ergonomic one, so I could see carpal tunnel as a possible consequence. It's too much fun, though, so I'm willing to risk it.

Not necessarily for carpal tunnel, however, if there was a sickness or serious personal crisis, that might warrant a good reason to leave.

A good reason...

I had carpal tunnel before I joined RIA, so there goes that one.

...presumably from typing up thousands of reviews on ria!

on a side note that's related, i will not be doing reviews as much over the next few weeks due to an arm injury i sustained last week that has left my arm immobile. i'm unable to type as fast, which also means that i can't do as many in depth reviews. but don't worry, i don't consider any disorder as reason to leave ria and i'll be back full strength in a few weeks.

Well, if you DO have carpal tunnel, for whatever reason (I won't ask if you promise not to tell), then yeah.

Some people can't blame that on RIA. UPDATE: Thanks for supporting my point, PBeavr.
