When you say they are banned what's the penalty for being caught? Is it a slap on the wrist, like if you was caught underage drinking, is it a misdemeanor like if you're caught with pot, or is it a felony like if you was caught selling heroin? The answer to that question will determine what most people would do since the penalty will determine if somebody will think whether or not it's worth the trouble. After all, I'm pretty sure at least half of OT's American posters tried out illegal drugs despite them being illegal and out of that half at least a quarter of them use them regulary (but won't admit to due to it being against the TOU).

Personally, I'll probably just peacefully protest the ban and leave it at that. No need to cry over spilled milk since I don't play video games nearly as much as I used to. It says something when I have over 50 games between four consoles (not counting downloadable games) and I can count on one hand how many of them I've played to the end of in the past six months.

A ban on video games? Hmmm. Well, first off, I'd feel kind of shocked and would research as to why they got banned, and get a kick out of discussing their banning on internet forums for a while. After that, I'd go back to playing YuGiOh and MtG, and probably start collecting stamps and reading way more than I do already (which is a fair amount). Some of my "friends" might disappear that I talk to IRL... 90% of our conversations in the hallways of my school are about video games. I wonder what would happen.

now that i think about it that would really suck because no game companies would be making new games, i would kill myself.
