Member Advice on Ciao Addiction

You are probably wondering what my title has to do with Ciao addiction, well I reckon you would have to be seriously addicted and very lucky to get anywhere close to becoming a millionaire through participating in Ciao, plus hopefully it caught your eye and made you want to read my review. The thought of Ciao being an addiction may make you laugh but it is as real as drugs, smoking and gambling, I should know “My name is christianfilmcritic and I was a Ciao addict”, some of you may say I still am. Okay, I have to admit that admitting that I was a Ciao addict does sound rather silly but like ... more

The mad cabbie was the trigger to write this review, together with bloody anger I will admit too, and frustration at myself for falling into the Sarah (Trampus) saga, with hook, line and sinker, with the hook firmly embedded in my throat.

~ ~ First of all let’s analyse the question we’re being asked here. “Member Advice On Ciao Addiction” Well, for starters, it’s not really a question, is it? And does “Ciao Addiction” actually exist, and if so, are any of us here qualified to give anyone else “Advice” about it? I’ve no doubt that when Ciao first posted this category, they intended it to be taken with a pinch of salt, and for most of the opinions posted to be of the humorous variety. Indeed, if you read most of the opinions in the category, you’ll find that this is in fact the case. But there’s nothing funny about “addiction” ... more
