Actually that's not nessicarly true. Assuming your involved in gaming seriously it still represents a lot of time and energy, and people are going to care about that no matter who they are.Straying Bullet said:
Speaking entirely for myself I think this video is a joke and not intended to be taken seriously, I just get that vibe especially with the kicks and the ironic fat comments.
That said, a lot of people do keep something handy near the front seat of their car just in case they need it, it's not unusual. Another bit that makes me think this is a joke.
As a side note I'll also say that I can see how people can be enraged by internet tyrants like webmasters banning them from a community they frequent, or being kicked from a guild your heavily invested in because of some drama or the other. People *DO* do stupid things in reaction to such events, however a video like this takes too much time and effort to be a kneejerk reaction.
What's more casual bans from sites, and harassment from guys like the channers/Anonymous continues because the investment of time and effort to actual do something about any of these guys would be substantial, and there would be plenty of them still out there so there would be no point. That's why even goverments like Australia pretty much have had to take their lumps.
Even if you are hardcore, once you found some webmaster or someone harassing your IRL your talking roughly $140 to get to where they are and back via bus (and perhaps more in gas or toll, the $140 going by the claims from Greyhound that they can get you anywhere in the US for $69 or less). This doesn't count food, or staying at a motel while travelling. So even if you decided to pop in and beat the crud out of someone who irritated you on The Internet it wouldn't be worthwhile, especially considering the risk of criminal charges especially if you want to make sure they knew who exactly was beating them.
This also means that the odds of anyone taking up a challenge to fight you from The Internet are also minimal. Hence the proliferation of tough guys.
Also I figure the more threatening someone is, the less likely they are to do something. Me, I'd leave quietly, wait a couple of months or a year, and then do something if I really felt I needed to and it was still a big deal as opposed to some trivial thing. I'd also be careful not to make it clear why it was happening. The "best" crimes and those least likely to be solved are very quick and simple, despite all these novels and movies that talk about stalking people (which gives you a better chance of getting caught). Street address, check the driveway to make sure they are home, walk up at night, boot to door, adminster vicious beating while masked, leave. If you don't say anything the last thing they are going to do is even look for a connection to someone booted from a board or something.
Just... The horror...
What is it!?
Ok. Reaction to eye-rape over. I never met anyone like this during my time on the game so I wouldn't be able to judge the whole playerbase. All I know is that the EU realms generally have established communities that tolerate one another most of the time.

Was that a Girl or a Boy? And why did it think it was cool? I have a few friends that Occasionally Play WoW, and they're okay.
That was one of the most pathetic lifeforms I've ever seen, and now I can't stop laughing at it. It would have been funnier if it had fallen over and couldn't get up so it had to roll.
Okay, now I can't stop laughing.
But seriously, I doubt most people on WoW are like that.

CAn anyone say "wannabe ghetto"? God... nothing irks me more than white-folk who act thug but clearly are *not* products of the inner-city environment.
OT: No, there are a lot of WoW players, and they're pretty diverse and not all of them are like that.
