Counter-Strike Cheater Stabbed in Brain

[Jeronus]

Considering how many threats are thrown during the typical online shooter match the fact that more people aren't being brutally assaulted in internet cafes is the only thing that surprises me about this mess.

Its from China? I'm not suprised. Hope that kid recovers.

What We Should Do:

DONT LET FOX KNOW1

What We Can Learn From This:

Counter-Strike In China Is very serious business.

Wow, this kind of BS is inexcusable. I mean, he should have been punished for hacking, such as being kicked or banned, but physical violence? Really? Michael Atkinson finally retired and Johnson was disbarred, lets not start proving them right.

Michael hasn't retired yet, he's stepping out in 2014.

one guy actually DIED from exhaustion because he played Starcraft for 50+ hours nonstop.

Links or it didn't happen.

You should at LEAST make the thing you want links for be something that isn't easily googleable .

...But at least we know YOU won't be dying from exhaustion, if that was too much work .

I love that line "
They are the types of games that completely engross the player. They are not games that you can play for 20 minutes and stop
Professor Mark Griffiths"

Yeah actually Professor Starcraft IS a game you can play for 20 minutes and stop. I did it for years . Play before dinner for a match, have dinner, do homework, maybe play before bed however that was unlikely as Pokemon was more important ;D.

Notice to ALL HACKERS(in China)

you cheat and you will get stabbed in the head

 

[Canus]

This story is kind of one sided, and you're all jumping to conclusions. Maybe the "assailant" was just gonna shove him or something (I know I'd like to get rough with hackers sometimes), and it escalated. The hacker could have been the one who pulled the knife in the first place, and the other guy happened to get a hold of it. Even if I was in the right, I'd probably run after stabbing a guy in the head.

 

[Composer]

lol literal "hack" ya i know someones prolly said this already

 

[hiks89]

It could have been worse... someone could have thrown a computer monitor or two at his head while yelling "Haaaaax!"

FUKIN NINJAAAD!!!!!!!!! AAAHHHHHHH MY GOD XP

 

[Nex-Falx]

This is painfully ironic

"Games don't cause violence!"

case and point^

A guy got stabbed in a parking lot in Michigan for being an Ohio State fan... (College football teams I guess?) I can't find a link or I'd give source.

Yeah, it's just about anything that these people can flip over, and it's more about the nuts than the medium they're lurking in.

 

[zana bonanza]

What is this I don't even...that is some fucked up shit!
I mean, stabbed in brain? Who cares that the kid hacked? No video game is good enough to justify stabbing someone in their fucking brain! You just don't do that! What the hell?!

And yeah, kudos to the doctors. The fact that the kid survived is amazing. I hope they catch the guy who did it.

 

[brunothepig]

That's fucked up. But now I'm afraid that this will be used in the crusade against games. Yeah, the argument was over a game, but the assailant is just messed up. It wasn't counter-strike that made him a junior maniac.
Also, I sort of laughed at the last sentence. No I am not a bad person. If I go to hell, it's for completely unrelated reasons.

 

[bluemistake2]

Wow thats bad now i feel sad

 

[FretfulGnome]

If you watch the nightly news then this isn't really anything shocking. Stupid crap like this happens every minute of every day all over this lovely little lump of dirt we call Earth.

 

[Cmwissy]

Never bring a knife to a gun fight.
