Google traduction sorry ;)
“To overcome the killings in the schools, German politicians have passed a law prohibiting the practice of violent video games in public places in some states. Now the organizers of LANs and owners of Internet cafes can offer more games where the player is asked to kill living things, failing to receive a fine if convicted.”
Go “simsLAN” germans.
fail imo :(
Germany even banned a LAN because of the killergames counterstrike and warcraft 3 :D

sick stuff imo, i always love the discussions with irl ppl when i say “but i played like over 2000h of all that stuff and i am “normal”?”….
Am I reading something wrong or does that second link say that the organisation was forced by the local government to make sure that the killergames warcraft3 and CS were not played, after which the organisation called it off?
Thats just genius, didn’t even want to cancel it because its a LAN, but they intentionally called warcraft 3 a killer game and wanted to make sure that it would not be played. :D
