When will they learn? A 38-year-old man living in South Korea collapsed and died after 10 days of playing an online game in Incheon with no proper rest - the man apparently barely even slept the past ten days as he played the game. A police officer said, "He was carried to a nearby hospital but declared dead on arrival." Title: Re: WAR ON GAMING: Death Toll Rises!!!

People need to learn to take a rest. Sleep is good, I suggest that people should get some on a fairly consistent basis. Title: Re: WAR ON GAMING: Death Toll Rises!!! Post by: Izret101 on December 12, 2005, 04:20:28 PM "He was carried to a nearby hospital"
I found that amusing. What is wrong with these peopple? 10days straight? What would posses them to do that? They must realize they are getting the 10 straight days but losing 1000s of more days by killing themselves to food/sleep deprevation. Title: Re: WAR ON GAMING: Death Toll Rises!!!

He was weaker though. He didn't make it 10 days. So you figure at the rate that guy was able to deal with his sleep deprivation compared to the last guy. Man in another few months Koreans might be able to a year without sleep before death... |
