me Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/phillip ... arged.html Pohatcong Township man charged with threatening school; weapons seized by Tom Quigley Monday December 08, 2008, 4:33 PM A Pohatcong Township man is charged with threatening to shoot up a local, as-yet-unnamed school. Jagex.com of the UK supplied information to local authorities about threatening comments posted on an online forum that referenced a school shooting. Jagex supplied a screen name and IP address that police traced to 227 Mountain Road in the township. Police visited the home and spoke with Donald Leroy Vroom III, who admitted to making the statements and granted written consent to search his bedroom. Police seized a journal, handgun, sawed-off shotgun, knives and fireworks. Vroom is charged with unlawful possession of a prohibited weapon, possession of fireworks and terroristic threats. This was also the grand unveiling of Jagex's new name: "Jagex.com of the UK". It is twice as catchy and thrice as cool and to think otherwise would make you a fool.

Kellis Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Wow. Nice catch by Jagex, but it makes me concerned if they're monitoring everything I say . . . they might find out about the upcoming invasion from Mars I've been plotting too. Oh, wait, I see that the post was made in the forum. First off, who goes and brags about how they're going to shoot up a school on the Runescape forum? Honestly? Secondly, the Mars invasion plans are safe. The invasion will continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dozens of lives could have easily been taken. Well done, JaGex. That's what I was thinking. If they found weapons.. you got to take it seriously. I mean, I don't know. This stuff is upsetting.
