Sure the guy didn't deserve to be stabbed, but I mean common sense here people, if someones acting crazy, don't be near them, don't antagonize them, get the heck out of there!

 

Heroic to say the least.

if i hear neighbors madly shouting i either dont care about them or watch through the windows lol. Playing the heroe in RL is not as fun as in game.

If I think someone is in danger I definitely will try and see if I can help in some way. But I guess that's how they bring us up in more civilized countries. 

true. But then you take the risk of getting stabbed in the chest for a silly reason... i think the best thing to do is report to the police about the noisy problem.... if they dont answer.... oh well. cant say i didnt try

Whatever makes you sleep at night, mate.

in that case that would be completely ignore the noisy people next door.

I'm willing to bet this stabbing was actually because the guy was making fun of the guy who plays WoW. All the coverage on this makes it look like WoW was the cause of the stabbing when really it was probably more to do with bullying.

I hate the way the media manipulates things.

double post by mistake

 AHAHAHAHA what would you know I am from Canada and people get shot and stabbed on the strip every day  down here in van they just dont put that on the news paper (24/metro/Vancouver sun)  down here

Before WoW this type of news could have never been possible.

 

The community have went downhill when MMORPG become mainstream.  Remember the DAoC days or even earlier?  The MMORPG community was much more mature back then even though it was smaller.

 

I am not blaming WoW for this incident since it is the stabber who is to blame, but player as a population shapes the environment which game developers design games, and the game shapes the players as well.

 

MMORPG have become a vicious downward spiral.  Either developers need to stop trying to please childish players just for a quick buck or the player population have to become more mature in general.  Wow got millions into the MMORPG industry, but whether that is good or bad is really hard to say.  Surely the industry grew, but the quality of games fell off a cliff, and the community became puerile.

I understand what you're getting at here and WoW's community isn't really the best there is. This news isn't really news to me because people stab each other over stupid shit everyday. This time it was World of Warcraft xD

Almost guaranteed, one more reason I'm glad to be a proud Canadian.

Sad situation to hear about though, no doubt about that. All over a game no less.

Yeah because it's not like a canadian has never killed someone and then chopped them up with a knife before?  WE NEED KNIFE CONTROLL LAWS to further cripple the average citizen. 

SHANKED!

How can people still be happy, or sad, fluffy or angry about this game is beyond my reasoning of things.

Is like me being angry at my dead dog because of the stain he left in my carpet 10 years ago: the dog is dead. i got a new carpet and a new dog, why so angry?

People are funny.

Hope the guy gets better quickly and rushes to pre-order GW2.

LMFAO! WoW is crap anyways def not worth stabbing someone over. How pathetic can you get.

Good point about how the rediculous gun laws here don't curb crime and only hurt the lawful gun owner.

Exactly.

Keep banning those bullets though. The criminals and thugs are sure to obey the laws :)

yes, agree " I mean common sense here people, if someones acting crazy, don't be near them, don't antagonize them, get the heck out of there!"   some people are so crazy, make sure not to near him.

another reason how retards  wow players can be

This is what Americans and Chinese do.....ignore your neighbors

" It seems to me this whole thing could have been avoided if he had just not went over to a persons house who was screaming and acting irrational."

That's the difference.

Canada lacks a fear based media that polirazies it's citizens for political purposes.

As a result Canadians don't feel they have to lock their doors 24/7 and respond to sounds of trouble to help.

Here an american citizens worst enemies are other american citizens and the medias constant focuse on the worst most hidious "news" they can find has developed this kind of attitude.

I can think of a shooting in FL that might have gone another way with witnesses present.

And what's really funny is that the u.s. with about 5% of the worlds population holds about 25% of the worlds prisoners.

That's called a police state and it doesn't seem too effective if you watch the news.

Still not as funny as the kid that died after playing 40 hours of Diablo 3 straight.  Dying from playing Diablo 3 too long is like going out on the Crapper, ala Elvis style.

More like he would get shot and the guy who killed him would use the argument he stood his ground and nothing would happen to him. I mean, were talking about US, right?

If the game was his life and he's in prison, does that mean he thinks he got the death sentence?

Sounds legit. Wonder if he shouted a skill name before he stabbed him.

and did he say ANAL before that skill name
