hick Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 "A German gamer has been arrested near Frankfurt on suspicion of involvement in the death of a British student, Matthew Pyke. The unnamed suspect is believed to have had a disagreement with Pyke on Wars Central - a forum for fans of the Advance Wars series that Pyke moderated. Police allege that the 21 year old man traveled to Nottingham, UK, and gained entry to Pyke's flat where he stabbed the 20 year old student to death. Pyke's body was discovered last Friday by his girlfriend, also a site moderator." Some people are mad. I think i'm gonna think twice about insulting people over the internet in the future.

Want an argument? /Waddy hunts me down and stabs me. It really is a pointless death, who murders about an online argument? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drag_Drift Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 NO! this would spark disturbing and horrifying ideas in the minds of GTAF members! OR, they would just treat this like any other serious news thread and get back to surfing the goddamned net. *sips coffee* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*MURDOC* Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Damn, thats crazy. Still, I'm not afraid of someone from here trying to find me, because I'm paranoid and am always armed. Thats f*cked up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cursed Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) See you this afternoon!!! Good luck, because I'm going to find you first, so you can either pay for the flight to kill me, or wait for me to arrive... Nevermind, Network Rail has the main route closed EDIT: Oh crap... you're from England EDIT 2: Even worse, your from Machester. See you in about 30 minutes I suppose Edited September 27, 2008 by Cursed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girish Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 So, Waddykins, where do you live? Some people take the internet way too seriously I guess. Feel sorry for the guy who got killed over an internet squabble, probably the worst reason to die. But I guess it's just one of those things that you have to live with being staff of a big forum having people of varied mentalities. It's a rarity though and I doubt if any such thing will happen on GTAF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cursed Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 In fact, when I heard this story last night, I instantly thought about the amount of information we give away here on GTAforums. We would never reveal so much to a stranger on the street, but it's okay here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would never reveal so much to a stranger on the street, but it's okay here? I don't think I've ever given out my address over here. Besides, the population of my city is more than enough to put off any potential killer from trying to track me down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cursed Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I've never given my address away, but some of the things we tell people, we wouldn't dare tell even our closest friends due to upright embarressment (Take the comments in the topic about wetting the bed).

Typhus Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 So he gets into an argument over the internet. Travels to England. And kills the guy. How sad. How utterly pathetic. Of all the reasons for killing someone this has got to rank down there with improperly brushing your teeth or eating meat on a Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cursed Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 We love Girish I have never heard such a true statement. Waddy wouldn't kill anybody! Would he?

It was some weird name like 'golden_angle' or something so I googled it. After about 2 minutes I knew her name, where she lived, what she worked as, where she worked, why she was in Ireland, her religion, her friends names etc. It was all on her MySpace page. I just tried typing my whole name into Google and I was glad to know that none of the results came up with the correct me.Just like me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatsoccerguy Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Does anyone else find the irony hilarious that this happened to a forum for Advanced Wars, and every on a forum for Grand Theft Auto finds it appalling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgey. Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Yes i read this in the paper yesterday and it was pretty shocking to say the least, i mean who flies to another country t stab someone over a game. (Except that guy of course) But looking throught the paper today it said something about a love link between two people that may have esculated this, not really sure what it said about it though as i only skimmed read it.
