We have another story of f*cked up World of Warcraft players doing f*cked up things, so sit tight and enjoy the show. A 42-year-old married mother of four flew across the country to meet a 16-year-old boy she met on the fields of Azeroth. The boy ran away from home after his parents expressed concern (how dare they?) at their son hanging out with married broads who he met on the Internet.
After a year of online courting, Lauri Price flew from Texas to meet Barrie teenager Andrew Kane, who defied his family and ran away to do the bad thing with her. Before eloping, Kane left a letter to his family assuring them everything was alright and telling them that their fears were "ill-found." His mother heard the front door shut as he made his escape and ran around the street at 1:50am, repeatedly shouting her son's name.
The pair were found two days later at a movie theater by police after a public appeal. Price has not been charged with anything since the relationship was deemed legal but "unsavory" by the law. It has also come to light that Kane lied about his age. Police say that Price thought her Warcraft lover was 20 as opposed to 16. As for Kane, he was put into counseling, but has remained adamant he found his "soulmate."
Unfortunately, Price has a history of finding "soulmates" through World of Warcraft, with one former lover claiming she was "very sexual, emotional and clingy." Despite what Andrew Kane thinks, it doesn't seem that he'll be the last.
This is definitely how all World of Warcraft players act. All of them.

whats the age of consent there?
The fact that it began in a game has very little bearing on anything.
Unrealistic.
No?
Oh, meh, don't care.

LOL.
That's all I have to say.
Sounds to me like Ol' Jimmothy Sterling is hating.
Stop being a hater Jimmy.
Awesome.
lol, fair enough.
But yeah, that kid would have been envied by his mates I'm betting, then laughed at a few years later.
Hit the nail on the head.
I agree, he'd be a fucking pervert instead of a sly motherfucker.
**the network for women who think that all men are conniving rapist man-dogs.
So true. It's earry just how different it would be...
Here's a missed nugget: Back about 10 years or so, I know 5 couples who hooked up and got their freak on from meeting people in EverQuest. 3 of them got married. And 2 separate couples had divorces related to the females forming strong attachments to other males who were not their husbands.
You should do stories on them. Those are scandalous too.
You do the writing, I'll do the producing, we'll make millions.
@Vanilla Gorilla
Fucking blog that shit.
So, what server does she play on?
I approve!
True, they WERE outpatients from a mental ward, but that's not the point. The point is they were all their own kind of crazy...yet all were into Warcraft. They all shared that common thread.
Weird.
All I know is I'm not going near this game. Kind of like how all the music I like, the fans of it freak me out. Well, Warcraft might be great, but I'm not willing to risk just how many psychos it's attracted into one spot. No good comes of psychos lumped together. Just look at Destructoid! Ha!
(ugh... I felt dirty even typing that... what a twisted woman she is!)
