    That was the funniest thing that I have read in a long time.



    I can't tell if she is trying to get publicity by being super psycho, or is just making a joke.



    I mean, it has to be a joke right?



    No one would really devote time to this would they?
    time to scare you - they probably are serious and do think they will get somewhere *shudders*
    Instead of mowing down the agents, the terrorists might lay down their weapons, team up with the military agents, release the hostages and maybe even go to a nearby bar to celebrate the happy ending.
    where the 2nd SWAT team is hiding and arrests them all for resisting arrest, carrying fire-arms in public, kidnapping, trespassing, etc.



    your average CS player is more in touch with reality than her



    1 more thing to remember: Enforcing your own views on someone who doesn't agree with you is fascism - if these people ever manage to ban violent video games.........

        Online protests are becoming more frequent these days, but they have a

        relatively simple history, dating to Ultima Online, a world created by

        Richard Garriott and Starr Long. During the beta testing, Garriott's Lord

        British, a supposedly invincible character, was killed by a player during a

        town meeting. Garriott forgot to click on his "immortality" switch, which

        led to his untimely death when he stepped into a fireball.



        What really irked the players was that Long, seeing his friend's character

        fall, called in a gaggle of demons who whomped the innocent bystanders.



        The beta testers began staging protests along the city's main drag,

        gathering in small groups to protest both the indiscriminate killing and the

        subsequent banning of the assassin.



        The event reverberated through the gaming world, giving players an

        unprecedented ability to change and influence the game. Scads of protests

        brought the phenomenon of player killing -- whereby experienced players prey

        on new gamers, killing them to collect points in the game and keep them from

        progressing to new levels -- to the attention of game designers.
        That would make me mad. Protest is good, and is a sign that the online world is still free. These are probably the same folks protesting ID chips in our PCs and cell phones. I gotta admit, I'm happy to see 'em around.
