I saw this article earlier today. Apparently in some other online game, one Chinese player leant another some valuable sword. The borrower then went on to sell the weapon in game. The original lender got pissed off and tried to take the seller to courts, but of course there are no laws governing virtual property. So the lender goes crazy and stabs the seller in the chest, killing him. And he is now sentenced to life in jail.
So this a friendly warning to all Chinese gilsellers, beware when swindling your own kind!
Here's the article if you're interested: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4072704.stm

/served :D
Hasn't there been other stories of when game and life collide into some tragic mashup as seen above? It's not right to target the article against Chinese gilsellers rather then Gilsellers in general.
Well the article was about a quarrel between two Chinese players if you bothered to look at it, that's why I used the Chinese adjective.
And who knows, I probably did see it but the hell if I remember these things. I just found it funny at the moment. I'm sorry to have wasted such valuable minutes of your obviously important life.
