Ok, the guy might have been cheating, and I can understand booting him out, but destroying his box is just wrong. I actually got angry when I saw them smash it.

Smash his PC : harsh AND illegal.

Especially funny when they realise it wasn't his computer.

Cheaters are bad, but certaintly does not warrant smashing ones pc.
Was that real or faked? You can hear a couple of voices shouting, "Wait for the camera." as they come out the door.

They know that there's a camera there, that doesn't mean that it's faked. Although the guy in the blue is smiling, and some of the reactions look faked.

The way the case blows up looks like it was way too fragile. Also, the speed at which the computer is dismantled to be thrown out is way too fast (the kid was playing on it, and a few seconds later they're tossing it out). The fact that there is no monitor glass flying around also indicates a staged movie. I watched the movie a few hours ago, and I don't remember seeing any cables coming out of the monitor either, like it's just the plastic case with nothing in it.

DC emulator code size: 2.97B, 232,320 lines... yes, that went down. 15% done.

The screen looks like a plastic bin!
And the sounds it made sound to me like rough plastic ie. a cheap plastic bin.


At least farting ferrets are better than stinky stoats.

Even if it was fake what's to stop some twonk deciding it's a great way of dealing with cheaters at there own lan? Hopefully common sense, but there's plenty of people lacking in that deprtment.

OMG, I heard about that awhile ago.

Kicking him out right away?
Well, whatever.
Destroying his computer?
I agree, harsh and illegal, they should've gotten sued.

Yeah, the monitor doesn't have any cables coming out of it, obviously the power cable can be pulled out out quite easily, but the video cable is well and truly attached to the monitor - I doubt they would've yanked that out before throwing it.

I thought it was suspicious how fast the lights got turned on when somebody yelled "We have a cheater!"

RealMedia format, it's a video of some twonk taking his shirt off and then having fisticuffs with some young scallywags. IMO, pointless.

Cheaters deserve it. They ruin the game for us legit players who would otherwise wipe the floor with his face. And to think you can go into a lan party and cheat and get away with it, well that would just be stupid!

That vid is fake. It's like a warning ad for other lan cheaters, but I reckon it's staged.
