You may want to reword your question. Do you mean addicted instead of stolen? If you are referring to people dying from playing too long that is likely because they are individuals who are not taking care of themselves and likely had a physical problem to start with, such as a weak heart. Players injest energy drinks with caffeine and loads of sugar... combined with loss of sleep and an adrenaline pumping game can be too much.If you like fantasy role playing and online interactive worlds with an open ended gaming environment, then you would likely enjoy WoW. It requires a lot of time and dedication to reach end game content and the ability to play with friends around the globe is extremely appealing. People complain about paying $15 a month, when that is just .50 cents a day. If you play 5 hrs a day, that is just .10 cents. I can tell you I would spend far more $$ per hour by going to a movie, to the bar, out to eat etc. I can't tell you how much $$ I have saved by having the game. If you lack time management skills and the power to control your gaming addictions, then it would likely be better is you never played.
