Oh wow

 

what a badass.

 

what is it with newspapers and terrible virtual reports? they should get someone who knows about that kinda' stuff to write about it.

 

Wow. Hacks RS accounts to pay off real debts. Lol.

I despise hackers, but damn it.. you'd think he just get a real job. Hacking that many accounts took some serious effort.

Lol'd at the part where he hacked some jmods facebook account.

 

lmao.

 

That's just the dailymail for you

 

From ages ago isn't it?

 

The whole article is idiocy

Runescape does not have 200m players and it is not "recognised as one of the largest games currently in existence, taking place in the realm of a medieval fantasy world."

Also the part "One user on sythe.org was selling 30 million gold pieces for $11.88 (£7.27) - a practice banned by administrators but hard to police" is ridiculous. It sounds very plausible that administrators of sythe.org would prohibit real world trading on a real world trading website. u fucking wot m8. On the flip side he might be referring to Jagex's administrators (Jmods) but even they do fuck all asides from trying to stop gold farming. Also when daily there are transactions of $1000s why did the writer pick a poverty transaction of $11.88. -.-

 

And not a single fuck was given.

 

Many of his victims complained to the game's developer, Jagex - taking up 1,000 hours of the company's time.


bullshit.

He pleaded guilty to two charges of unauthorised computer access after the court heard he accessed player accounts 3,872 times, modifying 105 accounts....
...'By his own admission, he has made between £2,500 and £3,000

Even more bullshit







He was also ordered to pay £100 costs and a £60 victim surcharge, and to forfeit his two computers.
Such high price omg

And in May this year Kieron Belmont, 19, from Swansea, was given an eight-month conditional discharge and ordered to pay £16 compensation to a friend whose RuneScape money he stole.

omg how would he ever repay him??

 

Dailymail is fucking terrible
