That does sound hard to believe, and either way it's kind of sad.

Good, thanks for the explanation, now I am really able to understand the reason for nOObs to post nOObish posts; they have actually a lot of will power to make it into the computer also starving, but their brain is since long enough dead, and therefore there is no quality (speaking both about thoughts and grammar) into their postings :D
I would just end the last sentence to "One that probably wouldn't be able to properly operate a computer and only concerned with basic instincts - such as whore-posting"

Speaking seriously, I don't believe it at all, otherwise I wouldn't be making fun of it. And I'm not making fun at people starving, I'm making fun at someone "starving" because he cannot move his arm a few inches out of computer in order to grab some food. And if he had a family, they would force him. Already before dying his body would be in a horrible state; no one caring about someone who looks so ill would just let him lay there in that way. In the end, Internet is this wonderful place full of lies. And this news just seems TOO unreal.

well let's not forget about those guys who died from playing Counterstrike and Starcraft for 72 hours straight in Korea.

I'm sure there's a special place after death for stupid mofos like them

Doesn't scare me. Mainly cause I can eat when I post. I am right now. Plus I only post when I am not doing anything in the real world, so I actually go to work and socialize.

Omg?? I thought playing 8 hours straight was much, but 72??, so in the end they still lost their game :D.
