Thought this was a rather interesting find at Tom's Hardware:
"One gamer is dead after he and another online gamer turned their virtual rivalry into a real-life fight. A few dozen players of Lineage II, a popular online multiplayer game from NCSoft, met at a Moscow café and began fighting. The group then took the fight outside where Alexander Blyoskin and Alexander Ponamorenko started trading blows. Blyoskin fell to the ground and died several days later from head trauma.
The fight took place on the evening of January 12th and was the result of months of online bickering between Ponamorenko and Blyoskin. Both apparently couldn't stand each other and had been arguing on Internet forums devoted to Lineage II.
One side says Blyoskin fell to the ground and hit his head, while other witnesses say Ponamorenko stomped on Blyoskin's head. Regardless, Ponamorenko now sits in jail awaiting trail.
Lineage II and I have been extremely popular online multiplayer games with millions of players. While the games do have a substantial following in the United States, Asian and European gamers make up the majority of players. Unlike World of Warcraft, there is no monthly subscription fee to play Lineage."

Good. One less idiot to give gamers a bad name. I hope the other guy goes to jail, because that shit is retarded. You know you need a life when you murder your video game rival in real life.

Thank God for WoW. All the Chinese gil sellers in FFXI quit and started selling gold in WoW. The prices on items in FFXI have literally gone down about 70% in the past year.
I boot up FFXI for like two hours a week anymore, but it still makes me happy that WoW is getting arsed, and not FFXI.

IS THIS TRUE, JEEBUS?!
You know Char, I'm going to have to test this theory by actually ripping Jeebus' face off tomorrow night.
Don't blame me, Jeebus. Blame Char, and blame the forums.

Is this true? WTF? Of course it's true. Yes, under my face there is indeed a skull. I didn't think that was any sort of secret, dumbass.

Up until that secret was revealed, I always thought I would see a circuit board, Jeebus. Or should I say T-100! (Duh duh duh!)
