Ok, this is the second Child Related Death due to Parents playing MMORPG's (First was an Americain Child who's father wouldnt step away from Everquest long enough to feed him). Is there something so wrong with people that they cant turn away from a Game for a few hours and look after their kids? What would you rather do, get Salazar the Warrior to Level 20 or give your child a normal, loving up bringing?

Im still trying to get around how stupid and neglagent these people can be. Stupid, stupid people!

I think someone posted this same story already. Not sure. But yea, some people are retarded.

I havent seen it posted about yet, so it still stands. I did however post the story about the guy who stab a real life friend for selling an ingame weapon.

But this just makes me think people dont have any idea about priorities.

Very odd, as it only came up as new News today. Damn you world of Internet.

There have been other problems related to an addiction to Everquest. This one guy killed himself because of his addiction, and this other guy lost his wife because of it.

Yeah, I posted this in the thread titled "Stupid COuple." Lol. But, I never expected Gamespot to show something like that.
