Ever gotten a death/violent threat online?

[Autumnflame]

online no.
in real life yes

 

[Mawdern]

I got a few playing some online games, and on XBOX live, too. I don't take them seriously. Some people just make no sense whatsoever.

 

[Bvenged]

They said I should crawl in a ditch and die,

I didn't even let them crawl.

Death threats, if your trolling correctly, you will get them.

once in WoW a guy whose character i killed multiple times in a Battle Ground crated a Horde toon just to threaten me with death and my mother with sexual assault.

I laughed so hard i /ignored him without reporting.

I've done almost the opposite; I'd just started WoW back up and I was in STV where some horde kept spawn killing me for an hour straight, seriously I couldn't get away. So I made a horde, insulted him with everything short of a death threat (not sexual insults or family insults, personal ones but no death threats), then I calmed down and explained how he ruined the game for me and that now because of him I didn't want to play it ever again - that he'd wasted an hour of my time and now my money as I was early in the subscription of 2 months.

I quit out, and played it again at the weekend where I had a full apology and some gold. It wasn't even sarcastic. I understand PvP but a line has to be drawn with spawn killing for no honour. At least he had some morality, I was just lucky. Anybody else on WoW would've shunned me. Cunts.

Uhmmm, don't think so. Probably though.

I just think it's a worthless threat. They're not going to actually do it, unless they're absolute shittarding psycopaths and you're stupid enough to leave personal information without realising what could happen. *Shrug*

I got a violent threat from some little kid on Call of Duty I killed him like 5 times in a row and obviously he had a little tantrum about it. He sent me a message along the lines of "I'm going to find where you live and put you in the fucking hospital" so I messaged him back my address and told him to try it.

He's still never came to visit me, I felt like we were really bonding as well

 

[Colour Scientist]

Nope.
Death threat free and feeling good.

I don't play online though, so that's probably a big part of it.
Forever alone gaming, yay!

This nugget was left on my YouTube account in response to my video "Pikachu dies", I'll let it speak for itself:

[AngloDoom]

Of course?

I mean, really, if you haven't received a death-threat at some point in your life you're doing it wrong, especially so for internet.

Hell, there was a video of me my friends took when I first went ice-skating where I fell-over and almost took out three of my other friends. The only comment on it, besides ones from my friends, was: "Pussy, I hope he died". In typical internet fashion, when someone asked "Don't you think that's uncalled for?" he responded with "ACTUALLY THAT WAS FROM MY AUTISTIC BROTHER WHO HAS CANCER SO FUCK OFF!"

I've also been told someone will kill me, as a result of asking someone to stop shouting abuse at their own team-mates during Team Fortress, as well as one time I asked someone to explain to expand upon why they held such a strong stance about gun-laws.

I've been threatened in real-life for making eye-contact with a girl while glancing around, looking for a friend, for having sex with a single and consenting girl when we were both drunk, for being dumped and not caring, and for asking someone to calm down when they were trying to get in a fight with my friend.

Seriously, maybe I just have a particularly killable-looking face, but I thought it was pretty common to get death-threats.

I read that out to myself in one breath, spelling-mistakes and lack-of-punctuation in-tact. I think that was possibly the proudest moment of my life.

 

[Ampersand]

A couple of times, pretty much always from religious people.......funny that.

 

[AstylahAthrys]

Goodness, I'm sure I have. I play online games so I'm bound to have some, I just can't remember specifics. Either people are too nice or they call me names, but rarely threaten to kill me. Sometimes they tell me to stop playing. I wish I could remember specifics. Some of these are hilarious.

Also, that picture was hilarious as well. I'm Christian, and I laugh because it shows how stupid the extremists are. So happy my church isn't like that.

 

[RoyalWelsh]

I am one of precisely 10% of the internet not ever given a death threat.

Hey, i'm part of that 10% aswell! *High five*

All i've had is the odd 'fag' and stereotypical Welsh jokes thrown at me.

 

[Radoh]

Oh, I was under the impression that this was the internet and that receiving death threats was a requirement to staying the night.

 

[Ickorus]

I think receiving death threats comes with the territory when you play games online, particularly MOBA games.

 

[owbu]

I get those from my guildmates all the time
Though I probably deserve most of them and they are really nice to me, when we meet

Oh and I got one on a bleach forum, because I mentioned that I like one of the girl characters more than another one. Probably had this one coming, too!

 

[Boris Goodenough]

I've been called nasty things, but I don't remember getting death threats though.

Out of all people, I received a death threat from John Mayer fan boy. His latest album sucks, everyone knows that.

I don't even know who John Mayer is!

 

[Zyntoxic]

once from I guy that fell in love with me online and I finally told him to back the hell off, and then he sent a supposed suicide letter and then pretended to be his own best friend that swore booly and brutal vengance on "the ***** that crushed his heart and killed him"

well I am assuming that he didn't commit suicide, because if he did that would really have been a stupid reason to do it...

 

[That's Funny]

On Twitter, a 'friend' issued a violent threat against me, and insulted me. He has since apologised saying he was not thinking straight. Those comments were very hurtful, and I'm still not ready to forgive him for it.

 

[Soxafloppin]

Yea I've been threatened with Death and Rape multiple times, usually on Fighting or Racing games.
