Woot!

Double Woot! Indeed.

It happens more often than you think. My cousin is actually in jail for pretty much the same thing, except with Everquest >_>

My cousin plays this game and she just turned 14 two months ago. You fail.

i've met plenty of girls as young as 11 or 12 in azeroth. it creeps me out when they tell me that guys hit on their toons.

lol naughtybear.
@ the 2 replys: Outside in the real world, people use this thing called humor. You can find it in game by typing /silly

I think this was meant a bit more sarcasticly than people took it. Yes, in reality there are 14yo girls playing wow. However, most 14yo girls today do seem to be working on their slut training than playing video games. At the risk of sounding old, have you seen how the kids (pre to early teens) are dressing today?

The blame is also on the parents. Who should have been paying attention to the daughter. The pervert is to blame as well, don't get me wrong.

But the parents need to keep track of what their kids are doing. A well adjusted 14 year would would never do something like this. But we all know, the parents will likely blame the game, as much as the guy, because they don't want to risk being blamed for being horrible parents.

I would put money on a lawsuit coming soon.

Yeah, as a parent of 2 and a player of WoW for over 3 years now, I wholeheartedly agree that the parents are at fault here.

As with 95% of all problem children, it's the parents who are to blame for poor behavior and bad morals.

The parents of today are just not doing their jobs up to par. Everyone is too liberal and just wants to be their son or daughter's best friend... that is NOT the way to properly raise a child. A child can make friends on the own if given proper structure, guidance, and discipline from their parents (not TV, teachers, babysitters, day care, etc.).

Interestingly enough, you can say the same things about leading guilds.

If you're going to lead a guild/raise a child you have to be prepared to be the bad cop as often as the good cop.

As for "not passing judgment," I cite the following:

"I am amazed at some of the creeps who play this game, and Morgon Jones definitely falls into that category. 27 years old and running off with a 14 year old girl he met through the game. It's time for him to get outside and enjoy life while he still can, since hopefully there'll be some good ol' prison time coming his way."

I believe you'll want to rethink your statement about how the WOW "Community" does not pass judgment.

Blah blah blah. Why do Europeans feel the need to turn things into a Europe vs US debate all the time?

How long, you ask? They did it last year...
