Guy deserved it.


Saying it's just a video game is stupid comment. You can say that about anything. You are walking in town and some guy knocks your expensive pizza out of your hand into the gutter for no reason. It is ruined. How do you respond? Do you kick the crap out of him or do you say hay come on it's just a pizza and walk away? People get into fights over shit like running a light or bumping into somebody in the street, when you are trying to enjoy yourself with your limited free time by playing a video game and some faggot is ruining it for you and everyone else by hacking it's not "just a video game" it's somebody fucking with you for no good reason. It's not allowed, it's not justifiable, how the hell it can entertain the hacker is beyond me... it's absurd behaviour which should be punished severely IMO.


most retarded rant ever. yah cheating sucks. but fuck its not worth killing someone over. if someone threw my pizza into the gutter, i wouldn't try to fuckin stab them in the head umm kay? nor would i kill someone for any of the other stupid retarded reasons you mentioned. i can't believe people exist that are so clueless to feel this way about the most insignificant shit. LOL


lol yes... the whole time i was reading this rant it reminded me of the nigga moment episode of The Boondocks when the blind dude steps on pops sneakers lol

it's two stabs to kill


Although I feel sorry and bad about the whole situation, this wins the thread. For people who don't understand, it takes 2 stabs to kill in Counterstrike

EDIT: Nvm...in CS, 1 stab to the head counts as headshot and requires only 1 stab

people hack and cheat in video games all the time
is it frustrating and annoying ? yes
is it deserving enough to go and stab someone over ? definitely not ...
I cant believe some people think his crime was enough to justify this

they should have just punched him in the face and told him to get the hell out of the cafe and not come back

The knife was a little too much. Cheaters deserve punishment but not near death.. those pictures look brutal.

Good grief that is a super large knife.

Why would someone just be carrying that around at a pc cafe? Were they planning on chopping some meat while waiting for a game?

That x-ray looks suspiciously like a website URL.

Also, as someone said earlier in this thread, they were probably just carrying the knife around so they could run faster.

the guy saying he deserved it, what the fuck? he cheated in a netcafe video game session which has absolutely no bearing on anybody's life whatsoever - and he gets stabbed in the fucking head and almost dies? are you serious gumby? how is that even a remotely equitable punishment ?

If you don't hack, you don't get stabbed in the head. Sounds fair to me.

NSFW PIC in link.

Source

"A gamer accused of cheating in a net café game of CounterStrike narrowly escaped death after irate players skewered his head on a knife.
The incident began in a net café in China’s northern province of Jilin, when a group of youths apparently noticed a 17-year-old boy they had been playing CounterStrike with had been cheating by using a “wallhack” to allow himself to see through walls.
An argument began and a fight broke out outside the café. During the fight the cheater had a 30cm knife thrust into his left temple, with the blade only being stopped by the other side of his skull.
His assailants fled the scene after inflicting this injury, and he was quickly taken to hospital in an ambulance, still remaining conscious. Doctors decided to operate immediately."

"Doctors explain the blade narrowly avoided major arteries, avoiding a devastating haemorrhage, and failed to impair his motor control despite passing through areas of the brain associated with such.
They were able to carefully extract the blade after opening his skull in an operation lasting some 10 hours, but noted that the knife was rusty – he has been placed under observation in case fragments of rust left inside his brain cause complications.
The net café in question was apparently popular with local youths as it did not require ID – government fear mongering about gaming culture has seen a variety of draconian restrictions placed on net cafés, so the café may be facing some unwelcome attention from the authorities."


Waw, good job by the doctors. Extracting such a deeply implanted rusty knife must have taken a lot of precision, calm nerves and energy (perfectly focused for 10 hours?!?!).

Unfortunately, I can already see this adding fuel to the fire that "video games are dangerous for society".

This thread is hilarious. People are actually engaging themselves in a serious discussion on whether stabbing someone in the head as response to hacking in a video game is a justifiable measure.

Don't be such an idiot. How the fuck would you react then? I'm not suggesting you stab a guy in the head if he knocks your pizza out of your hand, I'm saying you'd be fucking pissed off and probably hit him. I'm saying people do some crazy shit every fucking day for much less reasons, in fact sometime no reason at all.
I'm saying that just because this happened in a video game doesn't make it ok...

I agree with you...well to a CERTAIN extent.

I don't think people that hack need a knife to the head. Drunk drivers on the other hand...

Fair enough man. I don't even entirely agree with myself but you see what I'm getting at.
I just hate it that at face value hacking = death penalty is obviously absurd, yet at the same time it's an unbelievably despicable thing to do.
Drunk driving is retarded but the more over the limit you are the more ok it is because you're drunk!!!! and not making good decisions!!!! like deciding to drive whilst drunk lol... you can almost plead temporary insanity if you are intoxicated but when you are sober and sitting there hacking it is cold calculated decision to ruin the game having fun at other peoples expense.
I don't even see HOW it's fun though... especially in shooting game.. I haven't played CS but I've played COD4 and man that game is FUN online. SERIOUSLY FUN.
But when one guy is hacking it just TOTALLY RUINS IT.... screen is full of people saying *account* fuck you man and fuck off *name*.... and that's ignoring the hacker himself shooting people with auto-aim and wallhack and stuff... that's what I don't understand with these hacks the game is playing itself for you... there is zero skill involved... it's almost like the only entertainment you can possibly get is purely from ruining the fun for other people, which when they are spending their limited time (we all have to go some day right) when you are just fucking around with someone for your own amusement shouldn't you get fucked up?
I mean can you imagine down at the park 11 aside football 22 guys playing and you just running in and out of them.. messing with their game... they ask you politely to walk around or whatever because they are playing game... but you just keep running in and out of them, getting in their way for no reason, kicking their ball miles away and stuff... wouldn't you expect to have the living shit kicked out of you? Can you then imagine saying *relax guys it's only football* ?
Fuck knives man 22 men in football studs stomping on you will extinquish the life from you faster than a knife... this is what would happen if you did this and I don't see why hacking online should be treated any differently... this is what I mean....

I'm saying if you read the followup post maybe you'd see it's not so retarded after all.

Also :
nor would i kill someone for any of the other stupid retarded reasons you mentioned. i can't believe people exist that are so clueless to feel this way about the most insignificant shit.

1. He's not dead.
2.I bet " i can't believe people exist that are so clueless to feel this way about the most insignificant shit." would not be your attitude if someone in the street came up to you and started fucking with you for no reason.

just find it unbelieveable that some of you can say these things.

i understand that most of it is jokes, but still. this guy doesnt get a 'restart' button. he has to live with this for the rest of his life.

personally im just glad to know that it happened in china. whoever did that to the guy is probably dead right now, so thats cool.
if it was in america, he would be alive and well, getting his whole life paid for by the taxpayer, just chillin in jail.

Maybe he shoulda thought of that before he turned his hacks on.
I'm sorry but I'm going to continue this, and with the football analogy.
Knife is irrelevant, most dangerous thing is fists and feet.
I'm pretty sure if some guy decided to piss off 22 footballers for no fucking reason, just running in and out of the field, kicking the ball away, over and over again... he would get his ass kicked.
He might even be beaten to within an inch of his life.
This guy was stabbed to within an inch of his life.
He fucked around with these guys for no reason.

I'm pretty sure if a thread was posted and you see the video of this guy for 10 minutes just fucking up a football game and refusing to go away and finally they kick the crap out of him you would all be like LOL OWNED and DESERVED etc etc..
If you text someone racially abuse messages or insult them to their face, both are hurtful and both are illegal.
I fail to see why a virtual crime of equal nature is any different.
So don't shed a tear for this hacker.
Of course stabbing someone in the head is an insane thing to do.
If you are going to take the moral high ground physical violence except in self defence is never acceptable, even if you watch someone murder 100 babies you are supposed to restrain them and wait for the authorities to deal with them and be tried etc etc blah blah
The reality is sometimes people need an ass kicking, or albeit pretty extreme, a head-stabbing.

message:don't hack thx

I'm not saying the particular method of a knife was warranted, but come on, if instead they just kicked the shit out of him and put him in hospital that is ok? Of course not. So either both are or neither is. I'm leaning towards both are because otherwise people can just go around doing whatever they want to whoever they want without any sort of retribution.
