Mothers against video game violence website. Rofl!
Check out this load of crap...
[quote]We have received an overwhelming amount of letters on the topic of video game addiction and violence. While the majority of the responses were sent in by feral young children and pre-teenage gamers
The MAVAV.org store provides clothing, cups, and stickers to help spread awareness in your community.
"A Los Angeles city councilman has called for an investigation of violence at so-called Internet cafes, a step that could prompt a crackdown on the popular and controversial sites for PC-based games. The investigation of the cybercafes, also known as "PC bangs" or "cybercafes," came after a brawl erupted between rival groups playing in a tournament involving the online combat game "Counter Strike."

NO! WE CAN'T LET THEM BAN INTERNET CAFES!
Edit: did I say the link was: www.mavav.org? oh well its in the quote anyway...

Because anybody who's anybody know's the humorously correct way to say where the Amish live is Amish Land, not Amish Country. Jeesh. [i]Actually, I think cemical panther and his caps covered what you said priorly. A movie starring Tim Allen and Kirsty Ally also covered what you had to say. If only people would heed the word of Kirsty Ally. We'd have no wars. And also no food left, but... that's just something we'd have to deal with.[/i][/end_rant]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] nightstalker_750 wow i just got through playing doom3 and i dont feel genocidal do you thing comething is wrong with me?[/quote] Yes, I do think something is wrong with you. If you can get through Doom 3 without feeling genocidal from the games sheer crappiness, then something is wrong with you.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Fowlwing It's not fake unfortunately.... there is a Mothers Against Video game Violence in America. I learned of this group while doing an English project on Video Game violence and How it affects The Brain. Alot of the people in the group are mothers from Colombine (The highschool shooting that was blamed on Doom) So if you don't know what you are talking about.... Don't say anything[/quote] Uhm, I've talked with the man who ran the site. He did it as a Psychology experiment, how would people respond to the hoax. I bought a T-Shirt from him. [quote][b]So if you don't know what you are talking about.... Don't say anything[/b][/quote] You should follow this advice. [Edited on 6/22/2005]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Dominic24 this is old. but nonetheless, it's good that you bought these people to our attention. their inbox is going to be full for the next few weeks now.[/quote]Yeah, when I was at school I swear I remembered someone talking about the "tainted with online clans" thing. I like it how they hate rockstar though, can't deny that! Anyone up for t-shirts? Lol! :) I wonder if they make fridge magnets... or coffee mugs... and I wonder what their sales are compared to the Bungie store. Edit: It is fake, they said E3 was evil - its where programmers talk about what stuff they put into their games and how cool they are. I think gaming is a good social event, my neighbour always goes to the inet cafe by himself, but he has all these people I never knew existed with him doing co-op games on warcraft. They discuss tactics and talk about random stuff. BUT that crap on the website was claiming that inet cafes are a cause of mass genocide wtf? I don't go there though, its too boring.
