Here's another article in more depth. For the most part is seems okay, although they did take some things out of context.

I'm not sure how accurate this quote is: "Its funny...when..they say lets go on a date about 3 times..and they dont....go..." Three days later, he wrote, "Its funny when your 60 wondering......what happen at 21."

Lots of connecting the dots to find the end result it seems.

I can almost remember the dude's online name. If I were to stumble across my old ICQ list, or a Camelot member list from then, I would be able to pick out the name.

Galleri you did not see me on the news. I have refused any interviews. I have made email correspondence with WSJ, WashingtonPost, and spoke to NBC briefly on the phone. Since then I have not been speaking with media. I'm contemplating releasing 5 photos of Jared because I have received many requests for images of him but I doubt I will at this point until things die down (or if I ever decide to).

Speaker -- I think any photo of Jared other than the one they're all using would good. It seems as though they pour through photos and find the one that makes them look the craziest to coincide with this persona that they're selling.

Yeah, Junky... that's the problem. They pick the one picture out of a million that makes him look like Charles Manson, and that's the one they use. :-\ I didn't know the guy well, I had a couple of run-ins with him on the old Swirve boards and had to smack him back into line - but he was more disruptive and nonsensical than threatening. He was obviously angry and he'd just escalate until he got a DA/ban. But I don't remember ever considering him threatening.

I cannot see your signature - so if it's witty, put it in a post instead! :p

It's the same screenshot from Junky's link. They couldn't make their own country, so they decided to get one from someone that was advertising the game instead.

Guys - I'd ::strongly:: suggest leaving communication with the authorities to the development/administrative staff, and those in LCN who can provide them with full records, IF they want them.

I know the urge to help is there, but believe me from experience, you don't want to get caught up in something over your head here. Good on ya for doing the ethical thing, but you really don't want to be involved unless you're being advised legally.

Speaker - I don't know ya, but I already think you're a hell of a good guy. Sorry you're getting stuck shouldering this, I'm sure it's not easy.

"Its also a game that doesn't take up much time or eat into real life too much because of the way the turns are given out and able to be played at your own convenience.The game is real time but the turns used to perform actions are given out every so many minutes and are stored up to a certain amount, usually around 2-3 days worth. That means you can go a day or two without logging in if you so desire."

doubtful it would come to that - but since the avg demographic here seems to be early 20 somethings, who (no offense intended) may not be aware of what can get them in trouble and what can't, it's better safe than sorry.

You'll hear no speculation about this in the press 'cuz they're corporate just like big pharma but I'm thinking that this Loughner kid is yet another person who turned violent after the psychotropic drugs he was on went toxic on him.

A lot, perhaps the majority, of the infamous "dude loses it & shoots everyone in sight" stories have involved young people on the Prozac-like drugs that can build up to toxic levels and send a person full tilt bozo. It's near impossible to predict but the signs can be noticed by others.

Riiiight...i'm sure it wasn't the actual diagnosed mental condition that caused him to be on those meds in the first place that would lead him to do such a thing, or his continued abuse, and/or failure to take, those medications, or the abuse of other illicit drugs.
