*sigh* ofcourse she won't be sentenced to 5 years in jail - that's just the maximum for the crime she was accused of

I guess in the end she'll have to pay $200-500 (depending on how much time the man invested in the character) and maybe is placed on probation.

Thank you for being the sole voice of reason in this thread. It's a shame that everyone, like always, completely ignores it.

This person will not get 5 years. 5 years is the maximum term for data manipulation, it'll only be used for much more serious crimes of data manipuilation than just deleting someone's account in a video game.

it's a shame that all the news articles I've read have all said "ZOMG FIVE YEARS FOR VIRTUAL MURDER!!", as their headline, which is of course completely false, but since when has that stopped the press?

 

Hahah...

If you kill a bug, and you are accused for murder, and you POSSIBLY will go to jail = Its frökkin unbelivable!

Thats the main point here.
