It is time for an intervention here people. We have enough violence in this world without us gamers going off and attacking one another. This next bit is slightly disturbing.
A few people were minding their own business and enjoying some CounterStrike in a Net Café over in China. Good times were being had by all… until a boy decided his skills were weak and decided to do a little cheating.
This 17-year-old boy (A BOY, not a MAN, A BOY) decided to use a hack that allowed him to see through walls. Not pleased with this, some gamers in the Café confronted the cheater.
A tussle broke out and a 30cm (11.8 inches….almost a damn foot) knife was thrust into the boy’s head. The only reason the blade did not go all the way through was because the opposing side of his skull stopped it. Think on that for just a moment. The opposite side of his noggin stopped the blade. That means the entire blade knife is lodged inside of his brain!
Doctors operated for 10 hours to remove the knife from the boy’s melon. Thankfully, the knife missed major arteries and motor control functions in the boy’s brain. He will remain under observation to ensure rust from the knife does not cause any further complications.
The gaming community despises cheating, but, cheating is not knife to the head worthy. This boy did not rape and pillage villages in real life. This is a sad story. Even worse is that it is one that is becoming all too common.
We play video games for entertainment. Let’s get that anger under control and learn that violence needs to be left in the game. As much fun as Call of Duty: Prison Sodomy sounds, I have a feeling you won’t enjoy the real-life version of soap on a rope.
For the full story head over here and get all the details. *Warning* there is a violent image of the victim that could be disturbing to some people.
