I'm going to jail for a long time

I included the BBC just for you too

Had one from ABC news too but lost the link.

The 'original report' was from the 'politics in games' they are a bit... well on the other side of the aisle from Fox but at least try to be somewhat neutral. Its really an interesting site, worth a browse. It even has a few things that will make you smile my friend.

Anyhow... If you do a little searching you will find some news items about Muslims being offended about the publisher thinking they might be offended and then taking out the references about the Quaram.

So it would seem you'r dammed if you do and dammed if you dont.

As to the OP.. Jailing someone for deleting "killing" a charecter is just ludicris. That kind of thing goes on daily in the US. Tons of sob storys about peoples accounts being raided then deleted. There is even one MMO (EvE) that thrives on that sort of thing in fact in many ways encourages it. In fact I think it still holds the record for the largest 'scam' for virtual possesions. No lawsuits there, no police involved. It is what it is.... a game.

Ill find a link to the story and edit it in.
