<p>Story (http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20051209/tc_afp/skoreacomputerdeath_051209110606)&nbsp;</p>
<p> A South Korean man collapsed and died from exhaustion after playing computer games for 10 days without a proper rest<br />
The 38-year-old man collapsed Thursday as he was playing an on-line game at an Internet cafe in Incheon, west of Seoul.</p>

<p>

&quot;He was carried to a nearby hospital but declared dead on arrival,&quot; a police officer told AFP.</p>

<p>

The officer said the man had played computer games from morning to night every day and had barely stopped to sleep.</p>

<p>

In August, a 28-year-old man died in southeastern Taegu city after playing an online computer game for more than two days.</p>

<p>Wouldnt surprise me if it was World of Warcraft. Shit, I play the game n all but not crazy shit like this dude has. I will say (not a racist thing) but on our servers, most of the people we call &quot;Gold Farmers&quot; are infact people of Asian discent(or however its spelled). They play nonstop to get as much gold as possible, so lazy fucks can just spend real money in order to get gold in game. This game, as much as I enjoy it...its a HUGE time consumer. </p><p>Sadly&nbsp;for me, I have&nbsp;way too much free time on my hands.</p>

There's far worse names you could call them than &quot;Gold Farmers.&quot;&nbsp; I just thought of a few typing this response.

<p>Bah I was gonna say something else about it, but I fucked up...</p><p>Sort of came up with one: While in game, they never say a word, Except, &quot;Heal Please&quot; &quot;Water/Food Please&quot; regardless on what class your playing, if you respond with &quot;I have no food/water&quot; they'll still say &quot;Water/Food Please&quot; Hard to explain but yeah...</p><p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v432/Jesterofsadness/crowsig2.jpg" border="0" /> Self-Hatred FTW</p>

<font size="2">Chunks, AKA Corrolla, AKA Portabella did it for 50 hours on The Hideout a few months back. (They started on live at the start of one show, had a live web cam going the whole time for when they weren't on the air&nbsp;and ended live 2 hours into&nbsp;the show a couple days later) He was a mess after just over 2 days, another day would have killed Chunks much less 10 days.</font>
