One guy in World of Warcraft keeps bragging about how he's a criminal, saying he never got caught and stuff. He gets all sentimental, saying how he would rather get caught by the police over killing an innocent while robbing a bank, how he loves his mother etc.

I hate him. I don't care much about reporting criminals in video games, but I really don't like this guy. You think Blizzard will call the cops on him if I report him?

This is why you should play Minecraft instead.

The chances of someone being serious about something like that on the internet are next to none.

That's why it's absolute genius to admit your crimes online... in a video game world.

I still play Diablo II once in a while, so it couldn't have been me. Do what you feel is best.

It's likely an 11 year old kid trying to be "cool". Blizzard won't do anything. They'll just say put him on your ignore list if he bothers you.

Well he didn't exactly say he robbed a bank. It sounds pretty authentic, considering how whiny and sentimental he got.

And maybe 'brag' is a tad incorrect. More like 'whine'.

Keeps telling me how he messed up his life and is taking drugs while playing.

I think you're taking this far too serious and need to move on. And Blizzard can't do a damn thing considering that he could be living any where in the world.

It's hard to believe someone who plays WoW can be hard enough to rob a bank.

Why should you care? And if it really bothers you for some reason (because you'reoverly sensitive), then tell him to shut up.

Unless you're pretty positive he's doing some awful things and isn't bluffing to look cool, I'd say don't worry :)

They might get the police involved, yes. But if you're going to report him, do it because you want to report the criminal activity, not because you "hate" him.

Screw turning someone into the authorities, just burn their house down then blow up the area where it used to be! Problem solved.

Is there an option in-game to report bank robbers? If so, click it.

Weren't there a couple of canadian guys who got caught bragging about a murder they committed? The bank robber guy probably isn't serious though. Probably.

He is just like all those idiots in trade chat talking about how they just smoked a bowl or downed a 5th of something when they likely have never smoked or drank anything. Just people who are trying to look cool but failing miserably.
