Unhappy Hands off of my digital sword

http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/2210.html

Stupid Chinese killed a friend because the friend sold a borrowed sword for US$870.

Crazy world...

Can you imagine what it's like to starve to death

And as we sit free and well, Another soldier has to yell
Tell my wife and children I love them in his last breath

C'mon now amen, amen, amen

/sarcasm --- Hey man if someone sold my sword I would bash him in!

Seriously.... there are some roleplayers who take things seriously. The article says he turned himself in to authorities and pleaded guilty.... his exact words were probably,

"I'm turning myself in.... My ally betrayed me and sold my sword, so I slayed him. He has 0 HP now......"

I'd have to take the side of the killer. And I think laws should be made to protect the virtual property and possessions of gamers. Furthermore, if someone else kills your character in a game, I think they should be convicted as a murderer. This will force gamers to be less violent and it will force game makers to make more peaceful games.

i agree!

also they should make it a law that if your account get's hacked/stolen, your life will belong to the person who stole you character/account.
