Why do WoWers never eat lunch?

Is it because their drive to quest and level up is so strong they can ignore the hunger? I've noticed this with WoWers and future WoWers young and old. How the hell can a person not eat lunch and function for another 6 hours till dinner?
 
I skip meals all the time. Sometimes I won't eat all day until supper. I have no problem functioning, I just feel a little hungry.
 
Save it all for dinner, and the urge to level up and finish the quest with the party you finally managed to form were too strong.

During my WoW days, I use to skip lunch and eat one meal a day. During a holiday/school-less day, I'd wake up at 11am, shower, then turn on WoW and game until 12pm then eat. What the hell...
 
Simple. It doesn't require that you burn a lot of calories to sit on your fat pimply ass and click a mouse around on a screen all day. The 3 slices of cold Domino's pizza left over from the previous nights raid, 2 Twinkies, 2 donuts, and liter bottle of Mountain Dew you ate for breakfast when you got up around the crack of 11AM or noon or so should be plenty of calories to hold you over in the dark depths of your parents' house basement in front of the computer until that annoying ball of light the rest of the world calls the "sun" has left again so you can venture back upstairs and order another pizza without it annoying you.

Seriously though, it might have something to do with the fact that seriously addicted WoW players have really fvcked up waking/sleeping schedules. They are out of sync with the world around them and they frequently stay awake all night long playing and don't go to bed until shortly before the sun comes up and then wake up around mid-day and immediately eat breakfast. . .or what the rest of the world would typically call lunch before they log on again to start playing until around dinner time when they might break for 2-3 minutes to nuke a burrito which they will then sit in front of the computer and eat while they continue playing.

Yeah, it's a sickness. Anybody who says it isn't is in denial.
 
Never understood why a WoW player would order pizza. Chances are good that the knock on the door is just when you are in the middle of a critical battle. What then? Are you going to abandon your battle and get kicked out of your guild, or leave the pizza guy there for several minutes, hoping he doesn't go back to the store and report it?
 
As was said, probably lack of energy expenditure.

On the weekends I routinely get up and play LOTRO with only water to drink and nothing to eat until 2-3pm.

Weird. Same. Then I get fucking insanely hungry at night. But then it's usually too late to make anything so I just go to bed hungry.
