binary solo on 18 January 2010

I doubt I'll ever play online MP games in that way. More likely will only play private MP matches, or online co-op. Not all that interested in playing games with people I don't know who may or may not be total dorks.

Only game we've spent a lot of time online so far is LBP. But there's really no voice or text chat to speak of. Never encountered any d1ckheads.

 It seems like every online match I get into there is at least one pre-pubescent bitchling who needs to go to bed and stop shouting slurs because he has kindergarden tommorow. I haven't been on live for a good while because I got the RROD a while back but I was wondering how the live community is doing now. Are there as many of these people on live? Also do you have any funny stories on the subject (I figure we may as well give the thread more entertainment value.)?

Once I was on the original modern warfare when this kid told me to suckit and I told him to get some apple juice or something. He called me a F*g and I retorted that he was the one who told me to perform oral sex on him.

 

Also I know this might come up but I am aware that my avvy is a publicly known lesbian. However I don't think my avatar is funny because of that, I think it is funny because she is the ugliest woman I have ever seen.

Also I am pretty sure that there are a bunch of other threads on this, but considering the others are not on the front page it probably means they have died out.

that's crazy....

I remember once there were these three kkk members on halo 3 that I ran into. They were really obnoxious so I made a negative player review. I never saw them again. I love live.

I wouldn't believe everything you hear. People are dying for attention.

thats funny cause i could say the same thing every time i jump into a fps match on psn

Maybe they're too busy dry humping women in Playstation Home.  Moral of the story, there are idiots on every online network.

PlayStation Home player 'sexually assaulted'

Sexual assault is not funny. Sexual assault in PlayStation Home is hilarious. This is a truth we have all come to accept, but one PS3 user believes it to be serious business. Claiming her roommate was "sexually assaulted," PSN member "Whoef" is seeking a restraining order on a fellow Home fan. 

In what is probably the best sentence you'll read all day, Whoef claims that her friend was "Sexually assaulted near the Festive Tree while she was helping others with the puzzle ... She would move and the harasser would follow, each time trying to get behind her and use the crouch gesture. This apparently went on for some time."

The complainant wants a virtual restraining order to keep the two players apart, and has also suggested a "Home Jail" where these "future rapists" can be locked up and spend their time harassing each other instead of other people. 

"If the harasser has a string of victims, then let them find themselves all alone or better yet, only with other harassers," suggests Whoef. "There is no reason Home can't make money on future rapists. After losing all their items, like a real jail, Home can sell them orange jumpsuits, flip-flops and they can decorate their jail cells with a few items such as bunk bed, toilet and a bed roll. They might as well get use to it, that's where they are headed if they don't change their criminal behaviour."
