And in my opinion it's morally wrong to coax people into physically dangerous situations with ingame trinkets. Nobody doing this race goes into it with the mindset "I want to kill myself by gaming" - that's insanity.

People can do whatever the hell they like, that much I agree on. I do not agree that GGG should support outright reckless behaviour.

Everyone whining about health should get off the computer and get on a treadmill. Save your fake concern for yourselves, thanks.

You can state your opinion, no problem :). But i personally do care, do you think GGG would liek to hear that some of their player died, because he played too much. I don't think so, even if they are not responsible.


That's why limitation would prevent that from happening. And stop being boring about fake concerns, i really don't care if i win some prize ever. I am just saying, that it is nice to prevent possibility of ever happening in POE.

Quoting yourself twice doesn't make your argument any better, in fact I would argue that it just exposes you as having nothing substantive to say.

The reason I call your concern "fake" is that you kept mentioning "fairness" in your posts. This is code for "I can't win at something so I want to rules altered so that my chances of winning are improved"

You want the world around you changed to better suit your opinions and preferences. You expect a special set of rules so that you have a better chance of a better result for you personally. You want everything dumbed down and simplified so everyone has a fair shot, yay! Well, I've got news for you - that's not how the world works. I hope for the good of the game that GGG doesn't accommodate you or players like you. Attitudes like yours are what is wrong with videogames and society in general.


You mentioned in one post that its "selfish" for players to play 140+ hours in a week to win the race. What a hypocrite, since you want to change the rules just so that you can have a better chance to win. Now THAT is selfish.

If the price would be everything i ever wanted i would play. The fact is it's not healthy so i won't. Maybe i will do 1 hour solo races, that is a reasonable time for me personally :). I don't know why all the madness, just for stating my moral opinion about health. If you don't believe it, i can't help you with that.


Best regards, Fary :)
