13 hours, I think, but there has to be reason e.g. that one big 2x exp event.

2 hours at a time is about my limit, but I don't take long breaks if I'm motivated. I've done upward of 14 hours of training in a day, not often..

I think the longest I can do is around an hour before getting bored.
Probably the reason I've never gotten past level 55 in 3 years of on/off playing. lolol D:

Most Ive done was 7 hours: 2 hours before my 2x card to get a map, 4 hours of 2x, then 1 hour afterwards cause I was close to leveling.
I dont train for an extended period of time unless I have a 2x exp card... (I dont even train during the event ones... I cant wake up on time xD)

The longest I've trained consecutively is 18 hours.. And afterwards, I quit the game for 3 months. That was back before 2x cards though and I was like half-awake, zoning out at Z4.
More recently I got from 110 to 120 on my jMS Bishop in one day. Didn't really check how long it took, but it was a hell of a long time, even with the 2x EXP + 2x EXP card (4x) event.. Now the longest I'll go is about 6 hours or so.

Well, used to be able to grind for at least 10-20 hours. Now it's like "pomegranate <_< too lazy"
But, if I get the right motivation I'll grind for a loooooong time
How long can you grind? - Sushii - 2008-07-18
The longest I've done was 13 hours.. ;3
Nowadays, I average 6-8 hours a day..
How long can you grind? - Renascentia - 2008-07-19
I got to 161 in ~5 months with 16 hours in a row beeing the longest. Allthough at one time I used do to 10 hours of training and 10 hours of chemistry extra classes for a 4 day duration that would probably my best "hardcoring" prestation wich is probably supposed to be flaunted in this thread.

Most I did was 4 hours due to double EXP...I can barely grind for an hour now, since Maple bores me
How long can you grind? - Blankout - 2008-07-21
Around 3 hours, usually. I've never grinded over 5 hours, because my head usually crashes onto the keyboard by then.
How long can you grind? - Kourk - 2008-07-27

How long can you grind? - EchoFaith - 2008-07-27
i've done like 10 hours once. these days, i typically go between 1-2 hours, though i can probably go up to 4 if parents didn't bug me so much >.>

I can train for hours at a time if I'm in a grinding mood -- which can be anywhere between 4-8 hours (lol). Longest I've ever grinded was 8 hours if I remembered correctly.
A grind session typically stands for 2-3 hours 'cause 1 hour feels kinda short. It's like, if I'm gunna grind, I may as well go for longer. Also, having people train with me/leech off me is a way to discourage myself from bailing too soon. -- it makes me feel bad sometimes.
How long can you grind? - Kawasari Mimoto - 2008-08-09
Normally.. 2-4 hours. On a day where I can stay up past midnight, maybe 8 hours straight or more.. Not proud of it either.

I used to be able to grind, but nowadays I can't grind for 5 minutes without it getting boring.
