badlilmonkey Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I've been reading the newspaper today (shocking for anyone that plays rs) and found this article in South China Morning Post (HONG KONG) yes the news got that far :shock: Here is the article: Virutal thieves get real-life punishment A court in the Netherlands has convicted two youths of theft for stealing virtual items in a computer game, and sentenced them to community service. Only a handful of such cases have been heard in the world, and they have reached carying conclusions about the legal status of "virtual goods". The Leeuwarden District Court says the culprits, 15 and 14, coerced a 13-year-old boy into transferring a "virtual amulet and a virtual mask" from the online adventure Runescape to their game accounts. "These virtual goods are [legally] goods," the court said. The 15-year-oldd was sentenced to 200 hours' service, and the 14-year-old to 160. Discuss. EDIT I probably have some typos because this was handtyped onto the computer. Im guessing the amulet is a fury? and the mask is like....a halloween mask or animal mask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
