Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

Online Gamer Dies After 3 Day Online Marathon
Buzz
Buzz up!
A 30 year-old Chinese internet user dropped dead after a three day online marathon at a local cybercafe.
The man collapsed at his computer and medical personnel were not able to revive him.
“According to preliminary findings, the length of time this man spent online might have triggered heart problems,†the paper quoted a local hospital emergency medic in the city of Zhongshan as saying.
China’s government has taken steps to combat the online problem by offering warnings within the games as well as asking online gaming sites to deduct points from gamers who play too long.
Although with companies willing to let their players pay their monthly fees by donating blood, it is likely to get worse before getting better.
Earlier this year in February, a 26 year-old obese gamer died in a similar situation and caused an outbreak of concern in China.

War does not determine who is right, war determines who is left.
For there is much in life to love. To leave it without sampling the full flavor of life, would be a tragedy.

Person != bot.
This story has zero to do with bots.
