He has only stated that he believes Abdul and lackies are using the MMO for tactical training. He hasn't stated, however, made blames or insults towards the game and anything related. In fact, he clearly states something positive(somewhat):

"We need to start thinking about living, working and protecting two worlds and two realities."

Now if that's something negative, then I'd hate to see what's positive. I know that blaming games doth enrage thee, but try not to mouth off unless you really know what's going on. Of course, now that he has stated this, there will be ****s trying to work to ban games at a greater rate. So I'll admit, this is going to lead to some painful results.

He had stated at games were becoming as dangerous as terrorist training camps and should be monitored like them, that is a bad thing in my eyes. In a guild with some friends practising some moves when a message pops up saying 'You are a suspected terrorist... account banned'

I mean how far are they going to take the protecting of two worlds?

[Seigfreid]

He never stated that games were becoming as bad, he said that no longer will the enemy just attack but also create real-world simulations on the net through various ways on create battle plans. That, however, has been available to any damn person worth his share in programming. Even the military itself uses certain, specialty made games and programs in training; not officialy, or at least I don't think, but it can be done.

But as I said, this article will result in very negative feedback. I never said we'd be dancing in a field of flowers. What your talking about is one possible result, but I can say in certainty that every gamer in the world that deeply cares about games and their freedom (even if they don't like the particular game) will do whatever they can to fight against that; hopefully all action will be legal.

And one more mention, you have to give credit as to he actually said to protect the two worlds as he could have just said: "**** the games, nip the problemn in the bud and ban these games!" Which shows that he hasn't been corrupted by these damned officials and their hatred of games.

America's Army is a good example of that.

[HodgePodge]

Large city SWAT teams use programs like that to simulate operations too

Next they're going to say Anarchy is all descruction and no meaning....wait, they already have.

People are too crazy these days. Who knows, maybe they'll blame Global Warming on the terrorists. These people should know that a terrorist blows crap up without even caring about how it will turn out...

Wait, doesn't that sound like us?

I never suspected these dimwits to call in the terrorist blaming machine on a suttle game such as WoW.

What is this, a trend?

It is so much easier to simply blame "The Evils of Video Gaming" rather than stand up and face the fact that the world is ****ed up.

It could end up helping in the long run if the terrorists get their asses whooped by some 13 year old they might think twice about coming here.

[HodgePodge]

Terrorist: I duel you
Level 70 10 year old: K n00b
*terrorist gets *** kicked*: No fair, Americans are overpowered.
Kid: pwned.

When wars become next-gen, all we have to do is send our ubergamers to the battlefield to do some strategy.
They`ve been playing games so hard that even our times most intelligent strategists(sp?) are outsmarted.

[Seigfreid]

Now that's bull****. You really think those attention deficit turds can actually strategically outmanuever war-trained terrorists. This isn't some ****ed up disney movie, those brats wouldn't last. There's a difference between planning a seige on a game and guiding troops to their deaths. Aside from them, do you really think trained soldiers would follow some kid's orders? I doubt that too. Games might make them instinctive to war, but they could never handle the physical and emotional strain.

[HodgePodge]

Relax man, we were kidding...

I don`t have anything to say...

[Seigfreid]

Sorry, excuse my manner but I gotta say that annoyed me. I can't stand the claims of saying that gaming can prepare kids for war. Most claims are serious and even back them up with either "examples" or "tests". The whole idea of it all just ticks me off. But again, sorry if I had sounded rash and somewhat foolish, it runs in the family.

Oh and I apologies for using the term "attention deficit turds" for there may be some ADD'd kids here or anywhere that are not "turds", to them, again, I apologies. For the one's that are turds, kiss it *****es *flings the bird*.
