What does inbreeding have to do with any of those statistically documented issues? Where did I make any link between their culture and violence? You're trying to refute arguments that no one made. It's an objective fact that Thailand has serious issues, particularly related to children and their sex trade. They clearly aren't capable of dealing with actual issues, so suggesting that a country like this banning a video game is somehow proof that video games cause violence is so incredibly wrong. The only significant ban I can recall is the Manhunt 2 ban in various countries in 2007, which were overturned shortly thereafter.

Wow, a completely unrelated news item from an under developed country wrought with poverty, AIDS, paedophilia, child sex trafficking and child slavery. Yeah, great example of a country banning video games.

And if you actually looked at ALL the facts instead of cherry picking everything that favours you: http://en.wikipedia....es)#Controversy #Given your short memory, let me remind you that the lawyer behind these lawsuits was permanently disbarred in 2008 for inappropriate conduct, including making false statements to tribunals and disparaging and humiliating litigants

Again, there is a massive difference to reporting him in a cheaters forum and him directly showcasing to 1 million viewers who are mostly as unaware of ARMA2 as he was. He built a COD audience with COD gameplay and COD commentary. The failure to grasp the concepts of audience, demographics and his position of power is truly astounding.

For the 50th time, SeaNanners has INFLUENCE over a MASSIVE audience. Being jovial about cheats and making cheating seem like a fun little activity sends his 1 million strong core audience the message that it is okay to do that. You can pretend you don't understand all you like, it doesn't change the fact. Demographics aren't fake because you don't want them to be. You don't even need a most basic understanding of marketing to see what this video means and what weight it carries when coming from an influencial figure in an impressionable audience. People play DayZ because of him, that's exactly the same as what we* are describing. That indisputably proves what we are saying, and it shows that marketing works.

There's a difference between one admin just playing a game and a video that will be seen by potentially over 1 million people on YouTube...or even by tens of millions, should this particular video go viral.

More childish excuses. Anyone who doesn't know cheating is wrong is clearly mentally deficient. Is that what YOU are saying about the guy? Are YOU saying he has no sense of morality as a grown adult?

Woah that's so brave of you, changing the quote to something I clearly didn't say. This just proves you are insecure in your argument. If you can't respond confidently, just be a dick instead! If you can't understand how the draw of players + making hacking seem okay are equated, you're truly ignorant.

Clearly a fan boy. Twisting everything to make your hero innocent. The fact is he validated hacking and cheating. He told his audience that it's okay to cheat in a massively popular game 'just because you can'. He's a very affluent uploader, people look up to him and play whatever he plays. The EFFECT this will have and the message it sends hugely outweighs the phony 'ignorance' defence you are placing on him.

EVERYONE knows that cheating is wrong.

Realism Zombies Pick one.

Occasionally have severe flashing from the HDR in ARMA2.

It was on UK4 I believe.
