An armed gang of four kidnapped one of the world's top RPG gamers after one criminal's girlfriend lured him into a fake date using Orkut, Google's social network. After sequestering him in Sao Paulo, they held a gun against the victim's head for five hours to get his password, which they wanted to sell for $8,000. And yes, the story gets even better.

Surprisingly enough, after five hours the hostage wasn't talking. The group leader had a gun against his head all that time but the guy didn't say a word. At that point, the crooks gave up and decided to let him go. The brazilian police then caught the four suspects, aged 19 to 27.

Do we give him man points?

Hahaha kidnapped over Gunbound. Maybe I shouldn't keep getting better at that game. In about 3 months I'll have an account worth me being kidnapped over. Fuck that shit.

Lol, this is 'To catch a predator' taken to a higher level. Go to see some chick and end up a hostage, haha.

Against all odds, our hero (or very stupid guy) resisted. Probably using some Stamina +357 spell. Or a Big Cojones +577 mana potion.


LOL

He probably thought the gun was a controller and said "Psch. Mine's bigger..."

LOL. That guy has some massive balls to seriously not crack under pressure, especially with a gun to your head.
Fuck, I know if that shit happened to me, I woulda shit my pants the moment the gun was brought out and i'd be saying my password, my friend's password, and everyone elses password I know.

He could have spent those five hours leveling up. What kind of real gamer goes out on dates? Slacker.

Man that trailer of Gunbound looks good the first time you see it. Then you actually play the game and you're like "WTF!!!! It's a bad CS clone?!!!!" :rofl:

For real. If you seriously have enough of an issue with losing a GUNDBOUND account to sit with a gun to your head for that long, you don't need points. You need a psychiatrist (and some pussy, given the means of luring him to the mall and whatnot).

Death? :confused: Gunbound?

WHAT TO CHOOSE?!?

Its a fine line between hardcore courage and shithead stupidity.

But over a game like Gunbound? How do you explain in jail, you kidnapped a man over Gunbound?

The guy probably figured the men weren't going to risk a life in prison over a computer game. Of course, that was only a 50/50 shot, given what happened.

That guy must have some fantastic avatar. My suit's got 50 attack/50 def, but I don't think anyone would really come after me for it. ...Especially since I only spent $30 or so stuff for my character. More likely, his rank is exceptional. In any case, how ridiculous.
