I've never really liked Wow but your wondering how you could possibly die from playing it?

Simple you play it for several days straight without sleeping,eating and drinking.

Talk about addiction

I've played it for a year, and sometimes it is boring as hell... But sometimes you really want to achieve something, and you stay up for hours ... For instance, I played for about 6 hours a day for 4 days in a row for epic flyer ... People are allowed to just say "What the heck" and play a lot for a day or two, but when it gets excessive, you need to slap yourself and ask yourself "Why am I playing this so much?", there is a fine line between no life, and getting bored on a rainy day. Also, that picture of the WoW the forums was fake ... Or atleast very old, "I have been playing Nano's character for a few months" and he was level 60, that would have made it pre-bc, because if he had been playing it for a few months, and burning crusade was out, he would have been passed 60... By the way, the person who said "Did he drop good loot" was probably just trying to be funny...

Theres a device called parental control on wow homepage that limits so you can set when wow can be open. As an example you could set it so you could play 5 hours a day or something like that. I play wow but not much.

Well I don't think that you can die from wow at all cause you will have to get up and get food or water of just get your parents to bring it down to you.

From what I hear it is incredibly addicting, then again, anything can be an addiction... even playing games on armorgames or internet poker.

Back to WOW being addicting though. I had a friend who played wow so much that he and his wife argued over it all the time and finally they ended up getting into a fist fight over it. needless to say he went to prison and after getting out no longer plays WOW. And yes he is now divorced.
