Chinese Dad Hires Virtual Hitmen

Dad might need a good lawyer (if such a thing exists).

From the article:

"I've spent 25 years studying excessive video game playing," he (Prof Mark Griffiths, a gambling and addictions expert at Nottingham Trent University) said." That sounds a little obsessive, maybe he needs to get out more.

This article seems ridiculous, but I can see something on the internet being addictive... I can't think of anything in particular right now... I mean, I can quit CR4 anytime, anytime I want... wait, I need to see who's online... oh, I'd better read that, I'll get back to you...

What makes it worse is that I never smoked or drank before I found this place !

:) =o) =) :o) :O)

What - to invoke a virtual prison sentence?

"....Japan is a world leader in online role-playing games, which constantly throw up new innovations that have the uninitiated scratching their heads. A new Japanese service released this year called Virtual Wife allows presumably lonely men to choose from four different partners who nag until them until they lose weight...."

<sigh>

So how does one go about hiring a online hit man?

I got a few online pests on other forums I wouldn't mind putting a good ol fashioned anonymous electronic beat down on.

That and maybe planting a small virus here that makes the anonymous posters show up as who they really are after their post editing time runs out.

With this online gaming, before you know it, people will be assuming characters such as James Holmes, Steven Avery, Father Nelson and the like

Wow, a whole new playing field.

So you want I should rough em up a little er what?
