ok so with my last laptop i totally messed up my battery simply because i used the laptop while connected to the charger all the time, since i never (hardly) take my laptop out for usage (i always use it at home) i just connect it to the wall charger and use it while it charges, (biggest mistake ever) cause the battery wont work now...

my question is will the mbp do the same? can i use it connected to the brick at all times? or should i charge it then use it?

btw this happened over a year of usage with my laptop...so dont say it works fine if youve used it for a month like this...

Use it on battery when you need to; plug it in when you can. Just don't leave it plugged in all the time, as it will shorten your battery's life. This should answer most, if not all, of your battery questions:
