15 minutes should be your warmup and you shouldn't run to the point that you fall over. Instead, keep some energy for later on so you can lift weights, do some pullups and pushups and work your core.

I would take that as an insult, how does he know you are out of shape, just because you play MMORPGs? Way to buy into the stereotype.
No, I call that piece of advice a better way to utilize time.


Oh and one more piece of advice: learn to cook. Asian food is very good if you know how to cook it right. You'll also be able to impress the ladies with your fine cuisine.

Funny, I don't recall him asking: "Have some free time, any suggestions on what I should do?"
No, I believe it was more like: "Need a good MMORPG to kill some time."

Not trying to start an argument, just saying, you are deviating from the topic.
Judging from him stating that he has played a few of the MMOs recommended here, I'd say he enjoys MMORPGs and does not need to be told of any alternatives to playing them.

Hey guys, don't worry about. I don't want you guys to break out in agreement just because of a simple request.

I'm not trying to deviate from the topic, I'm just giving alternatives. MMORPGs are time consumers; I acknowledge this fact. However, I will also ask you that if you play an MMORPG for a certain amount of hours instead of sleeping, what do you gain from it? I guess for me, trying to kill time is the same as saying I have too much free time. When I have free time, I go outside and run or something.

Well, I guess I can do both. Exercise + MMORPG.

Again, I don't recall him starting a thread asking what the point of MMORPGs is. Maybe he plays MMOs with friends, as I do? Its raining outside so you don't want to go for a run, you aren't hungry so you don't want to cook, so he wants to play an MMO, what MMO do you recommend RallyMaster, thats is what this thread was started for.

Well judging by the fact that he started a thread asking for an MMO to kill time, he has already decided he wants to spend his free time playing an MMO.

There you go OP, have fun with it, maybe PM me your character name once you get it and I'll get you in my guild? Sorry to have cluttered your thread, I just don't like when people buy in to the stereotype that everyone who plays MMOs sit on their computers 24/7 and don't do anything else.

Okay guys, I can do exercise and guild wars but no cooking. Ahaha.

BTW, When is Diablo 3 coming out?

EDIT: Apparently I live in Canada so I won't be able to buy from newegg. Is there any other places I can buy Guild Wars from?

2nd EDIT: I can buy from Best Buy/Futureshop/EBGames but it costs $49.99

Well usually IGN would have something but since they don't, we don't know for sure yet.

However, there are bits of news that say mid-2009.
