Just as a heads up, I lifted that topic headline straight from Digg, but I couldn't resist sharing it here.

I considered posting this in the official World of Warcraft section, but as this has so much "real life" in it, I think it could belong here.

It's a bit stunning when issues about a certain MMORPG spills over to real life - and with rather unsavory consequences. Never does anyone any good, it it just creates a lot of drama for all the people involved. Such is the case, unfortunately, with the recent arrest of Tamara Broome, 31, World of Warcraft player and alleged kidnapper of her 17-year-old boyfriend.

Details are a bit scant at the moment, but what we know is this: Tamara was contacted by her boyfriend's parents with the simple request that they sort it all out. This meeting required a bit of air travel, as Tamara lived in Australia at the time.

On her way to her partner's home, however, she was met by three detectives and was arrested on the spot. Smells like a setup, doesn't it?

Having shared a deep and trusting relationship with her barely-legal boyfriend for more than a year now - at least, in the online realm of World of Warcraft - Tamara clearly didn't think before she leapt, the player now facing potential jail time of more than two years if found guilty as charged.

Tamara's flatmate, who wished to remain anonymous, maintained that it wasn't in Tamara's intentions to kidnap the boy at all, saying that it was him who wanted to fly over to Australia to be with Tamara in the first place. She also added that the boy's parents might have hacked into their son's account to find out about the details of their relationship.

Certainly shocking and saddening. What do you think, players and readers? Overprotectiveness on the parents' parts, or good parenting? Let us know by your comments.

... and I thought the absurd Ventrilo chats posted a while ago had a strong contrast of being both depressing and funny at the same time. This raunchy ol' gal reduces them to nothing. :shok:
 
I almost beat ya to it, but decided to tell my LS instead.

amazing.
 
BTW for those who don't know... Flatmate = Room mate. Just thought I'd add that and this story sounds dumb...

The parents asked her to come and some how she's arrested for kidnapping? I don't get that at all. Also if he is "Barely legal" then he's legal so what can anyone do about it unless he says I'm being kidnapped. lol

What a stupid story and those cops need to go back to the fucking donut shop.
 
Hot for teacher?

I keep seeing these stupid fuckers in the news getting laid by old ladies then crying about it.

What are men turning into now days? I see another guy who's life ruined here. How you gonna live with everybody knowing you got kidnapped by a 31 year old lady?

You tell your friends you got laid by an old lady, your the man, you tell them you got laid then squelled on her for kidnapping you, your a pussy for life.
 
I guess it is implied but it doesnt say how she kidnapped him so to speak or even how she would have kidnapped him seeing as how they obviously live in different countries. Be intersting to see how this plays out tho. I won't mention names but at a time I was lets say "friendly" with another FFXI player (it didn't last) but at the time he was 16 and I was 19 or 20. Anyway not to long after we meet he acutally ran away to meet another girl he met on here who was about my same age. I wonder if it was something like that were he was planing on going to meet her or he acutally just ran away and due to some crazy law because of the age difference they were able to slap her with a kidnapping charge.

On a side note it worked out for my friend even thought his parents found him in about 24 hours they eventually let him move to be with her and I know they had a kid and I think they might be married now... Ahhh the wonders of FFXI

wait, wtf, the guy became a father at age 16 and then married her at age 16?

Hell, I'm 20, and I don't want kids before I'm 25.

i conqour, if my hot teacher had sex with me i wouldnt be like OMFG I GOT RAPED, id be happy as hell
 
wow, idiots and the internet are a dangerous mix.
 
17 year olds can sort out their own shit, leave them to it.
 
Ok to clarify I think he was 16 and turned 17 right after we started talking. Also this was almost 3 years ago and I am pretty sure that he was 18 when they kid was born. And I am not sure they got married I just know last I heard they had a kid.

(This is what I get for posting on QCDN at 2 in the morning)
 
Where's mine!? This is bullshit!
 
I moved to Oklahoma to be with a girl I met on FFXI when I was 17 and I got her pregnant the first week I was there.
