Ever wanted to peek inside the Nexon NA Offices?

I would love to see you leave your computer on for a week and see what happens.

Perhaps two, or maybe a month.

I've left my PC on for longer than that with quite literally no side effects, running high-end FPS games on Steam at max framerate even at the end of those periods.

Idling on TF2 does not count.

TF2 is not a high end game either, it's old. The STEAM engine is made to work with old, low end computers. It's not any special that you're having that engine on running for weeks.

Besides, who knows how much crap those servers can process.

And remember, this is NEXON's servers, not your computer. You expect them to buy you shiny new top tier servers, or old re-used and broken ones?

...I said "max framerate". As in, my PC has never overheated after 2 months of constant uptime.

And I very RARELY play TF2, and I NEVER idle with FPS games running. =P I'm talking about stuff like Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

You understand what I mean, anyway.

Just because your computer could handle being turned on for months in a row doesn't means a server with hundreds of players accessing it at once could do the same.

Oh, just imagine your computer running mabinogi, just that now you're accessing and sending information to not just one client, but THOUSANDS.

For weeks in a row too.
