Kid share plays Destiny to stranger...
- Thread starter SirMossyBloke
- Start date
Actually thought about it. Decided to take the high road but I did block him (I'll probably never encounter him but you know, just in case I forget his PSN and encounter him one day. I'm not good with names). He's the second person to be blocked by me in the few years I actually registered with PSN (after getting a PS3 late in its cycle). I don't think he cares about me blocking him even if he saw it happen, I just did it to have one less asshole I'll probably have to deal with on PSN.
Admittedly, I'd probably laugh if his inbox did get spammed.
Personally though, I really think what should happen to him is getting banned from PSN. Spamming his inbox just seems annoying and not really something that will teach him and others not to do it (in fact since he's a troll he might just find that amusing) and most other forms of internet justice I don't think I'd approve period (I don't think doxxing is a good thing regardless save maybe animal abusers or something that was that serious. I just don't think it's a good idea to encourage physical violence against the person. And while some people may think it just means people sending unasked for pizzas to him, you never know what psycho will take that as a "go hurt this person" cue. And as much as I think this guy is a dick... I think that is as disproportionate response, probably more disproportionate, than some people's response on here that the kid deserved it for wanting to glitch).
Yeah, I was surprised by that! But I guess he thought only his weapon was dismantled, bet his heart fucking sunk when he got to the character select screen to see the real damage. I was expecting the crying to intensify!
Well he was smart enough to know that the troll would only be amused by his pain so act like you don't care. But, sadly, since that's on youtube and he cried afterwards, the troll probably got the satisfaction anyways (especially as this has gone around gaming forums now).

Yah. I'm sorry this isn't funny, cool, ore lesson learned. It is really cruel and mean. This is bullying plain and simple.

Huge thread...can anybody summarize it?
Is Sony/Bungie doing anything for the victim? Are they punishing the guy who did this?

Have you got quotes and links to what you're referring to exactly?
Nah. If you're getting your rocks off bullying kids a quarter your age you deserve to be shat on.

I don't think they should do either. It's not their responsibility.

There should be a warning when share play is enabled about shit like this. Can't believe some of you guys are saying this kid deserved it.
How not? There's no warnings, hell the kid didn't even know how to activate share play until the guy told him.

Think of it like deleting a save. Destiny doesn't have log-ins.
You can, You just press the PS button.

Great example of why Bungie needs to get off their asses and implement a character/item-restore feature like every other MMO has.

Letting a stranger play a game for you isn't anywhere close to meeting a stranger IRL and what hell is this for kind of wake up call to his parents? They won't let him play with strangers anymore or something?
Yes, great, he has now learned the lesson to not trust any strangers anymore, amazing. Because everyone learns everything after one lesson. Having a guy deleting his save files will definitely make sure this kid will never get himself harmed anymore by a stranger for sure.

What exactly was broken? Is it documented anywhere?
(Honestly asking, in case I missed a post.)

I'm not a big fan of chopping someone's hand off because they stole an apple. The guy is obviously an asshole but instead of revoking all of his digital licences, perhaps permanently banning him from Destiny and its sequels would be a more just consequence.
If I invite someone into my house, even if it was to discuss nefarious activities, and they start destroying my property, I could have them arrested. There was a clear violation here, and if were Sony I would ban the perp's account and console. If they don't, it looks bad for SharePlay.
Also, Bungie should restore the kid's account back to a previous state. You know they can do it, even if they claim they can't. Justice should prevail, the documentation and proof were recorded.

According to that list, it looks like the kid broke more rules than the guy who trashed his account.
No but you can bet he won't ever willing give a stranger control over his game system/computer ever again. It really sucks what happened to him but this is a lesson that will stick with him for a very long time. It could of been worse as others said could of given control over the families personal computer and the person getting personal or banking information. Maybe this going viral will be a lesson to other kids about trusting strangers with your console/pc/online accounts.

So does that mean the person who trashed his account doesn't get punished? Nope, that isn't how it works.
I think everyone's tried to glitch in destiny at least once.
Yep. Kid is only 11.
He's not even old enough to play the game lets be honest okay. I have kids as a matter of fact I have an 11yr old son and one who is 12 and BOTH know well enough to not do stupid shit like this. Sure the guy who did it was a dick outright and I'm not defending it but if the kids parents were worth a shit they could've taught this young man not to do something like this for among other things this exact reason. Sony isn't to blame because there are safeguards in place for children on PSN if his parents cared enough to set his account up properly. Bungie isn't to blame here either and kids will be kids and without proper guidance harsh lessons such as these are learned the hard way and ultimately the blame is the kids parents because this never should've been allowed to happen in the first place.

If Sony/Bungie is to punish the guy who trashed his account with a ban, it would only be fair if the kid earns a ban as well for attempting to cheat the system.
Can't have one without the other.
What a terrible person.
Pretty sure when enabling SharePlay in the video, the kid gets a message on screen about how it's his responsibility for anything that happens next, and he quickly just skips over it?
Personally I don't think Bungie should do anything.

as if that's ever stopped you or any other person here from playing or watching something that's not for their recommended ages.

Indeed. I like him calling what he did "justice".
Yeah... my god. We need some hacker vigilante group to fuck this guy's shit up.

he should be in prison right?
1. Destiny is ripe with exploits
2. The kid didn't set out to exploit, he was manipulated by the troll to try it.
3. Are you so craven you can't discern the difference between the victim and the attacker? The troll did this before, to a person who wasn't trying to glitch.

Oh well, we certainly lowered that bar haven't we? From now he won't step into some strangers car outside into, well at least he won't let some guy take control over his computer or game system.
And in the case of a game system this is about as bad as it gets anyway.
Yes he could have given control over the family computer. But it wouldn't make any sense because the risks are way higher for that than giving some guy control over your game. Also it is a feature that is much less obvious.
This is not some valuable life lesson, if anything he'll probably distrust strangers on the internet now, which yes, prevents things like this from happening again, but also sounds like a negative thing to me.

The kid was already crying when all he thought he lost was Plan C. The horror at the character collect screen... Damn...

hows mensa? seriously, all kids aren't as mentally advanced as you were growing up.
That's not a credible defense to my point sorry. The fact IS he's not even supposed to be playing Destiny and well here's a real reason why. He was trying to cheat and ran into someone smarter than him and this happened that's the lesson learned here. Along with him not having parents who apparently give a shit about what he does online. If this were my kid and since I do have two kids 11 and 12 I can speak from experience I wouldn't be defending them and I would explain that when you cheat nothing positive comes of it. I've had this conversation with both my sons and I'm saying if the kid in question had some parental guidance this probably wouldn't have happened.

It's just a game. Relax.
Wow, this angers me quite a bit more. What a worthless piece of shit that guy is. Seriously hope he has to answer for his behavior as it's clear from his post history that he is not a person worthy of respect.

And why would I want them?
Right on. Henry seems like a good kid and showed maturity beyond his years when he went back into the chat room and didn't cuss or scream at them, but handled it calm and cool. Had that been me I would have been throwing a fucking fit of epic proportions. I hope Bungie hooks the kid up. This Kermit guy needs to be taught a fucking lesson though. Sick fuck.

Sure you can hear only one side, but it certainly doesn't seem like it is the kid the one initiating the cheating.
Which even makes it more terrible for all these people condemning the kid for cheating.
Yes, the troll put the idea in his head that the glitch was there in the first place.
The troll builds your trust by being friendly, then manipulates you into shareplaying with him. Along the lines of "hey wanna see this glitch? Or let Me try to use your ghorn your character looks so pretty, I've never used a ghorn before!"

So our proof is a one-sided conversation?
Yeah, I can't go along with that. It's inconclusive.
But there is enough proof for you to condemn the kid and equivocate a ban like the troll?
I'm certain buzzgoku's perspective would totally change your mind. Lol
