Teens convicted in RuneScape heist.

[Tbilisi]

I do 32 hrs of community service every year anyway, from my school, lol.

 

[revo lution]

I do NOT believe that it should be that harsh at all. It's just a game jeeze. *cough* 13 year old was a nerd. LOL. :love:

Before we know it 12 year olds will be in jail for 'breaking RuneScape rules' which under federal law is illegal. lol

Wow... Amazing any country would even care about virtual items.

Theft is theft. You spend 10 hours grinding to make an account, someone spends 10 hours working a different job to make money. Someone jacks your account you spent that time on = someone jacks the money you made in those 10 hours. Stealing is stealing.

My friend got less community service when he was convicted of arson 2 years ago :\. granted he only lit a field on fire, but still.

 

[Say What]

Sentence them bullies to death pl0x

 

[Hello Miss799]

LOL I can't imagine what they would do here in the US if somebody filed a case against this.

 

[SELLIN_Account]

Dang thats a lot of hrs for just that. Thats pretty surprising to me..

 

[Struck]

That's really harsh seriously people get scammed all the time and it's not even real money. Never thought that would happen.

 

[tubba lub]

200 hours... ouch!

 

[Tadiko]

Don't know why but it's funny for me. Because why the heck virtual items is valueble as real life items? like i steal a diamond necklace and i should pay for it as a real life diamond necklace worth ;dD

 

[hybanks2000]

Ya that seems really extreme 200 hours. I know somebody that got 50 for actually stealing stuff. Oh well must me much more strict there.

 

[Taylor Made]

US is too busy for stuff like this sadly.

you know china beats teens who commit crimes.
like for vandalism and stuff you get this huge fucking stick to the back.
they have to put a leather strap across your spine so that it doesn't do spinal damage.

adults get the death sentence

[xxtrem3]

Hope that those kids learn their lesson.

 

[tutoneppis]

Thats crazy, Australia wouldn't do that lol.

Have you seen Australian news? its fucking shit.

 

[born live]

Aussie wouldn't do this.
Lame

 

[Damien0124]

Wait, I just realised, that 200 hours is more than my friend got. He got like 100 hours for stealing shitloads of copper hahaha!
(And copper is worth quite a buck... or euro xD )

But I guess the punishment was harder, because violence was involved.

 

[Termite Noob]

Lmfao,

Couldn't jagex intervine? It's their property, they could do something? They wouldn't though.
