I would for sure say yes to that offer, but only if i was able to end it when i wanted… I think most people would be tired after having lets say 500 years long Lucid Dream, by then you have probably done everything you can possible imagine… I would have no problem swapping my life for a 80 years long conscious dream though 
Yeah I agree with Tomas, it goes back to that “If you could live forever” post, you’d probably go insane…
Would be pretty kickass for 100 years though…

It’s an LD. So you would simply change it from a nightmare into something more pleasureable.
I doubt you would ever really ‘run out of things to do’, but I’d say no, if offered the chance to LD forever. Perhaps for a few weeks, or a few months, hell maybe even a few years, but not forever.
Well I would say yes, but theres one major downfall, there’d be no-one else there. Anyone else in your dream would just be a part of your mind, and not real, so you would get rather lonely…
Dark Matter said what I was thinking,So no.
I would rather live a real life then be in a LD for good.
It would mean being alone (only with your sub-c) FOREVER… and it could develop into anything if I lose my lucidity (and get it again, say in 100 years, if not never)… Not to mention that dreams are built from your memories of RL, and you don’t see any thing new RL, they are the same all the time (different, but still built from the same “blocks”).
I would agree, but only with possibility of TRUE Shared Dreaming (so i would become something like aSpirit Guide or Dream God).
Three years ago I would’ve said ‘Yes! Please put me into an everlasting dream where I never have to be in touch with bland reality, stupid society and ignorant people EVER AGAIN’, but times have changed, and I don’t have such a strict urge for escapism anymore (although I still enjoy it). So no.
Think about this; lucid dreams are so wonderful because we can do anything we want, because everything can be so gorgeous and intense and free. Compared to what, actually? Compared to daily reality. If you lost that reality and were to live in a dream forever, your dreams and wishes and experiences would lose purpose and intensity, because there’s no opposite. Perfection can only be aimed for if imperfection exists; if there are no lows, everything may be high, but it’s also at the same level.
I’m the kind of person who lives for the highs AND the lows, for the contrast in life. Whether I feel intense pain or intense happiness, both make me feel alive. I enjoy interacting with other people, I enjoy challenging myself. As amazing as an eternal paradise sounds, it’d make my life feel useless. What’s there to strive for if you can instantly have everything you want?
i see your point…living in your fantsy world for all eternity to do what you please seems perfect…living in a world created by your mind…but our minds are what they are because of what we experience in this life…if you shut down now, you may never open your mind to its full extent because you have not allowed your mind to fully grow…i agree that living in a lucid dream for all eternity seems great…but, i believe that the after life will be just like that…our most beautiful dream!

Very good point. You remind us that everything must be kept in balance. I now agree that if you were to live in a LD forever that it would lose it’s excitement. Maybe not after a year or 2. But what about a decade or a century.
I think theres more to it.I think that being in ld would be just a step on the bigger journey.I think something lies above that realm.And there might be number of “aboves”
I wish its like that and i guess im lucky enough to see it my own eyes one day.Cuz it has a good chance to turn out true:)
The thing is, If you dream forever, do you think the enjoyment would run out? It’s great when you can only do it when you go to sleep, and you do other stuff during the day and your minds off of it. But if you always had it, what would you look forward to, it would always be there. 
Choice between RL and a never ending dream life? I choose RL
Choice between RL and a never ending LD life? I choose LD life.
I reckon when we die we will be in another world, similar to dream world, although we will know where we are and be able to use all our lucid powers + more
RL is just a dream we will one day wake up from 
-stranger
Your right, dying is the same as waking up. Maybe one day we will wake up and be living in the matrix movie, and the world is controlled by machines and everyones entire lives are dreams. Or something like that…
WE ALREADY MADE THAT CHOICE, NOW WE HAVE TO REALISE IT AND AWAKE.
Sorry i am just making a few lines that i can rant in the street, will i be taken away? 
hope so
If you have asked me about that few years ago, I would probably say, “Yes! Of course! I would die for it!” It was because I was so tired of living my life. I didn’t get what I want. I couldn’t stand up for what I believe in. I couldn’t do anything just for myself. I honestly thought if I would sleep and have a LD forever that I would be joyful. I was really frustrated with myself. I didn’t know what to do.
Now for last one year, I began to discover many things about myself. I learned how to enjoy my life even more. So now, you are asking me this question. My answer is no. Definitely no. I live for both lows and highs. Also my life is full of joy now. I discover that trusting my instinct is leading me to a much better life. I discover by trusting myself, everything begin to fall in right place. I also found that meditating helps me so much. Now it’s much like I’m LL’ing (Lucid Living). Everything seems so extraoridinary amazing now. I enjoy it and will take it close to my heart forever. I will never take anything for granted. I enjoy my life. I enjoy what I have now. I enjoy everything.
So… go ahead and enjoy THIS life now. Be LL! It helps so much! 
I’d chose life, simply becuase there’s a layer of unkown to it. In an LD, you’d have nearly full control. Once you’ve had your fun you’d get bored. Plus you’d have no one to talk to. You’d go insane.
I’d choose waking life too. The relative stability of waking life gives you the opportunity to get much further in life, than when you have to deal with the enormous instabilities, fluctuations and dynamic shifting of a thought-based Dreamworld.
…Actually that sounds a bit concerning. I mean, there’s much talk about how it would be great if you get into an LD after dying. And when would that LD end? Never? So when you say you would choose a lucid dream and never wake up, it makes me think you are planning a suicide or something. If you really belive this LD after death, you would have a good reason to kill yourself, right?
Anyway, I’d choose the real life. I can visit the dream world from here
yea i didnt actually mean forever as actually being forever and ever. i really just meant forever like until i die. i guess i just neglected to mention that. oh well.
