I feel like the trope description needs to be broadened. It currently refers to only when a game rewards the player for taking breaks, and seems to focus mainly on subscription based online games like MMORP Gs. This is despite the fact that most examples listed are of the type that notifies the player when it detect they have played for a long time, or when they are playing at an untimely hour, without any reward or other incentive.

For some reason, the wikiwording adds an extra space to Anti Poop-Socking. (Just take a look right here.)

Yes. Standard way of how markup works on this site.

I don't get it. It isn't like that for most other links.

Because they don't capitalize the S.

I think this trope needs a new name, like "Take A Break And Go Outside". I doubt most people have a clue what "poopsocking" is.

That's me. Hide / Show Replies

This. Can we have a name change to something less gross please?

Or at least to a less ambiguous title arrangement? Anti-Poopsocking would indicate that it is countering some sort of practice, while Anti-Poop Socking is confusing and does not match the wording used in the description.

That is just an artifact of the URL you are using - see The Problem with Pen Island. Whether this page shows up as "Anti-Poopsocking" or "Anti-Poop Socking" is purely a function of the URL used to access it.

So, in Nougami Neuro there's a character who sends a virus to an MMORPG his parents are engrossed in, to force them to stop playing. Does this count as Anti Poop-Socking?

In Animal Crossing: Wild World and propabably in the other ones, after 12 PM, animals are used to tell you that it is realy late. Cute animals state that Cool kids do not stay up late.
