Title: Gamers hired by father to 'kill' son in online games
Post by: Foxy Brown on January 08, 2013, 04:26:29 AM

A man in China hired virtual "assassins" to hunt down his son in online video games and kill off his avatar, according to local media.

The man, named by the Kotako East blog as Mr Feng, was concerned about the amount of time his 23-year-old unemployed son was spending online.

He hoped his actions would deter his son from playing the games, he is reported to have said. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20931304)

I read this article last night on another website.  If the dude was a TryHard, he'd probably rage quit but seeing as he enjoys playing games no matter the outcome, it's not gonna deter him at all.
