With Planetside almost here, you may want to give some serious thought to your office chair. While many of you may have suitable chairs that provide proper back support, There still may be important health concerns surrounding your long hours at the keyboard. Fortunately, I found a good office chair for less than $50 that could save hundreds, or maybe just tens of gamers from dying horrible intestine-related deaths.

I have a tiny crappy uncomfortable chair. My room is too small for a big comfy one. I usually just sit on my bed. Setup:

----- Chair

------------------------------------------ Bed
I rest my feet on my crappy computer chair. Did I mention I have to occasionally screw the thing back in because it gets all loose? Stupid chair.

the cushion is all flat and the back is falling off... I really really need a new one, but I spend all my money on games

I have the greatest setup :D I use a recliner for a computer chair! I put the keyboard between my knees, and have the mouse on the armrest, on top of my big CD case :) Wrists have plenty of support, so I never get carpal tunnel either. I humbly sugguest yall drag your recliners from your living rooms in front of your computer, you will not regret it!

If the back has fallen off your chair, you no longer have a computer chair. You are now sitting on your computer stool.

I need a new chair myself. I've got a chair that was my father's a long time ago. The arms are all worn off, and it can't sit straight, so I'm constantly reclined. Furthermore, if you lean back to far, as many of my unsuspecting guests have, there is a very good chance you're going to learn how to do a backflip. Thankfully I've learned to avoid doing this for the most part.

That is a danger with any chair, just get up and exercise during breaks! :D Like when I am playing a bunch of Desert Combat at night, every time the map changes, I do pushups or something while it loads.

So do I :D

My chair sucks also. But I have a nice computer desk, with the keyboard and mouse tray that rolls out from under the desk, and gel keyboard and mouse pad that I stole from work. I live in a small apartment, so my desk is were my dinning room table should be.

I have a comfy chair, but its a little big and it doesn't recline :( I need to go out and buy a leather swivel or something. Nice idea for the lazy boy, but don't u kinda sink in it and not have room to move your mouse?? :rolleyes:

My chair is decent, it has arm rests, but they aren't padded, and it's uncomfortable enough for me to get out and do some excersizahz.;) me gusto mi asiento
