Someone with zero responsiblity I suppose...



Or someone who has the forethought to do all of their work, that they would normally do during the weekend, during the week. It's really not hard to work around your schedule/responsibilities. How do you think people take vacations? I mean really.

Yes it is very dangerous to play a 48 hour stretch of TERA. You may end up missing the last 12 hours. I'd recommend doing a 60 hour stretch, to make sure you don't miss anything.

You don't have to take my opinion though, I'm only a not doctor.

Sounds like it's time for a family intervention.

I have to admit, that it's hard sometimes to take a break when you're getting into the game and lose track of time. Set a timer or look for the auto messages from bhs. I have my own timer: my wife :) She come in and checks on me. I do no more than 2 hours at a time, then do 1-2 hour breaks to spend time with the family. I'll have a great break Saturday for my son's taekwondo tournament :)

the main thing is to just have fun and play responsible.

It's dangerous. Just play the game and have fun, relax, and enjoy your time now. You'll have plenty of time to play TERA without straining your eyeballs needlessly. :)


Eh stop shooting off nonsense. It's not medically life threathen if you do it rarely.

Of course its not healthy but at the same time it's not going to kill you.

The act of sitting for 48 hours with minimal activity can actually be very life threatening. Please don't spout YOUR nonsense.

i pretty much did this for the first beta
it was totally worth it... ...
stock up on food and water
work out a bit so you don't get so atrophied you can't move well afterwards
eat well on thursday/friday, finish up all your work for the weekend
it's okay if you pass out for 5 hour intervals

Yes this is dangerous, only way you would be able to stay up is heavy consumption of non natrual energy products.

Also even if you were to do this it wouldn't be as enjoyable as doing 16 hours a day and 8 hours sleep... you would be to lethargic and sluggish to really enjoy it.

I guess if you are a total selfish prick, or all alone, hence...no responsibility...

For me to tell my wife and daughter, oh, by the way, I'm taking 2 days off, and for those 2 days don't ask nothing of me or anything I'll be playing a game... Ya...OK...

If you are all alone, live at home, etc...not saying you're a loser, I'm saying you don't have any real responsibility and thus and engage in such behavior. But, for all us working folks with families, etc, threads asking about stuff like this is retarded.

Welcome to the real world where some people have families to take care of and others don't. He could be a high school student where he took a weekend off and did all of his homework, or a college student doing the same thing. Or perhaps he's 26 and just isn't in a relationship right now and works a 9-5 m-f and can do all of his housework and work that he needs finished for the following week before hand. Maybe he's 42 and he's divorced and doesn't have his children that weekend, as well as doing all of the things he needs to do for the weekend before hand. Maybe he's a she and her kids are all in college and her husband is away for work (maybe overseas in the military) and she did everything she needs to for the weekend and none of her friends are available.

There are so many different possibilities that would lead to an individual having 48 hours free to themselves that it's not even funny how ignorant you're being to other people's lifestyles.
