Yikes talk about people putting a little too much time in at the keyboard.

I knew a preacher in the 1970's who had a woman stand up in church and asked for him to pray for a number of people with a lot of problems. He was writing down names and problems when another parishioner stood up and told him it was a soap opera.
Some people's grasp on reality is less than others.

This is a bunch of BS. But honestly wth? Why can't all those hackers in the many games the liar has ran be arrested? Hehe I can see it now

"welcome to cains lair! If you hack you'll be arrested!"

I think that the husband and maybe officials are just hardcore video game freaks. I mean sure I'd be pissed if someone hacked my Ogame account and deleted it or something, but to have to pay 5000 dollars over a free online game or be thrown in prison?

I think too many take their games like WoW as they pay for their lvl 70 character instead of just play for their enjoyment.

I disagree, if someone accesses your private account and deletes a character without your permission and without any way to do so other than hack it, that could be construed as hacking. Technically your account belongs to the company that runs the game in most cases, you're paying to rent it, therefor they just attacked that company's assets. It's no different than them hacking your email account and viewing your personal emails, would you like that?
