I just think it's a little harsh how people are simply labeling him as a fool.
A fool or not... The guy was someone's son; he had family. I can't help but feel that it's wrong to criticize an innocent dead man.

Well, I would call him a fool. He was old enough to make his decisions and he chose to play WoW for 2 days in a row... and died - a very foolish decision if you ask me.

I'm really not surprised in this article, because I already seen too many of them before. I still remember when 10 years ago when I was in a Internet cafe when somebody loudly read an article about a Korean boy who died from exhaustion for non-stop chatting in Internet. Later, another article showed up about another Korean who died for playing Quake 2 non-stop. Then, it was StartCraft, Counter Strike, and now WoW. There were some articles about Chinese too who died by same circumstances, but Koreans are No. 1 when it comes to this nonsense.
