Author Topic: A Chinese crime group on World of Warcraft faces jail time  (Read 1218 times)

I found this to be very interesting. Many people think that virtual property doesn't mean anything, so therefore you can scam it from somebody or steal it without punishment - but little do people know, it is punishable in several jurisdictions. I think virtual property should be regulated to a degree, because it isn't now.

I don't know why people go out of their way to do this.

not even that but like

if you're just some wimpy nerd and convict A finds out you got 5 to 10 for loving people over in a game about magic, you're basically saying "i won't fight back- please don't, i will willingly pick up the soap"

How is this even theft? Blizzard says WoW items have 0 monitary value. Also if you were to call the police on being hacked in a video game they should laugh at you and let the "thief" beat you up
