The article is hilariously biased towards making Eris look good tbh. It seems like most of the writer's information came from Eris himself and she just didn't fact check at all. Can we delete this thread and stop giving a literal psychopath the attention he's trying to grab.

Can we have some indepth journalism now for DocFox, Pafff and that one person who committed suicide who's name escapes me now.

That last person you're thinking of is David Cirno. And guess what - he's come back to life, baby.

Eris claimed it was a harmless prank, and just retaliation for the pair logging in to one of his websites without permission, but many players were not sure who to believe; in the world of Epic Mafia, lying was not just part of the game, lying was the game.

That was a long write up for some small interviews, lmao.

You realize that when you interview someone you don't put everything they say in your article, right?

Boring article and what an absolute jerk

This isn't an article , it's a bloody novel ! Keep it shorter and more succinct. What have I learned ? That nasty , malicious trolls with computer expertise can hack into your account if you upset them !

What an

1 less troll, good news

He sounds like a right c#nt.

Is this melodramatic, idle chatter the news now guardian? "Socially inept form a group which then breaks down due to social ineptitude" it sounds like the plot to a Freddie prize jr film. News please.

A cautionary tale, of which the message is: get off the internet. I shall heed it.

Quite interesting, and well written. But I wonder of this is all made up - possibly by 'Eris', and that there is no such thing as Epic Mafia - the site having been created just for this article.

More like a bucket of Doritos and a crate of ersatz Red Bull that they ordered their mum to leave outside their bedroom door lest they enter and see their wank sock and the 12 tabs of anime open on their desktop.

Despite all of our wondrous technology we seem to be de-evolving. If this how people are going to interact with one another in the future I am glad I am as old as I am.

Obvious troll is obvious.

Eris and Lucid are the same person. It's very easy to find those security holes if you wrote the code yourself. What a good way to appear cleverer than everyone else.

People like this used to be confined to their immediate vicinity, maybe harassing a local newspaper or council department, possibly their direct neighbours with their ranting.

Now the genie is out of the bottle and they can spread their bile across the world.

The bloke sounds like he has serious mental problems and unfortunately tars gamers in the same way that 12 year old 1337 5n1p3rz do.

Some people, i.e the majority of gamers, play for fun and enjoyment.

It isn't their life or an outlet to victimise and abuse those they come into contact with, pick it up, put it down, get on with life.

Normal people enjoying a normal activity, in perspective and not taking it to an extreme.

I muted a gamer yesterday called You Can't Mossad Assad, his avatar being a picture of Uncle Bashar. Maybe one day they will grow up, probably not.
