Suicide over EQ?

read this: (I know its old 2002 old but i dont think anyone saw this and if anyone did any thoughts?)

www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/10/17/48hours/main525965.shtml

I think since the person had an emotional problem a closer watch should have been kept...and sony is right, a person isnt addicted..they just cant say enough is enough i need to quit and live my life.

    Just for the record, I bought EQ with the Kunark Expansion packed in about 3 years ago. It  said on the box, "Buy this game for someone only if you never want to see them again" or something to that extent. Gee, what could that mean?image

    1 suicide out of a population of 400,000.

    Hmm, I can only conclude that EQ players are a surprisingly stable lot.  What other population group can boast a suicide rate that low?

    Well this is bad but still it said HE HAD DISABILITIES!!!! So someone or me should email sony about game and put WARNING:mental people shouldnt play. So people like him couldn't sue the company. Only thing i really have to say is if you camped for hours or lost your stuff thats a reason to get really angry but not go overboard that far.

    I want to cast magic missle.

     Is it really that addictive?

     I have played DAoC,SWG and FFXI. 1 out of the three were fun, but none addicting.
