Web-Rage.....
Man jailed for 'Web-rage' attack - CNN.com
LONDON, England (Reuters) -- A British man said to have carried out the country's first "Web rage" attack was jailed for 2-1/2 years on Friday for assaulting a man with whom he had exchanged insults over the Internet. Yay! So my question is: Who will your first victim be? |

Re: Web-Rage.....
I find it hard to believe that that's the first time it's ever happened, even in England. I've had the urge to break someone's jaw more than once due to random dumbasses flexing their "web muscles", but I'm a fairly sane individual. There has to be people that are a few bricks shy of a load, that have acted out their "web rage" before this incident.

Re: Web-Rage.....
I have to believe that's the first prosecuted example.
The English will fight over a dirty look so it's hardly shocking. Oh, and TMC you were right with the 'what' I did. I'm still not sure it was human. |

Re: Web-Rage.....
About a month ago, when this story first came out, the mods had a discussion about it. Not to overreact but it's stuff like this that sometimes causes us to be "hard asses" to you guys when things start to get too heated. We want healthy debate, but we can't allow it to get into the realm of personal threats that could unfortunately lead to actual acting out those threats. Unfortunately, we have had incidents between Warpath members that have come dangerously close.

Re: Web-Rage.....
i am a 45 year old "kid" i love to screw around and act very immature. but i have never felt the urge to fight anyone who has insulted me online. and besides every one here is probably 6'3" and 250 lbs. it seems everyone online is always stronger and more beautiful then they are in real life, right?
