his actions that were both intentional and stupid caused harm to another individual.


I'm kinda on the fence on this one. The question is: should people be responsible for their actions?

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

Think about the possibilities, suicide gunman can now be sued, murder suicide cowards can now be sued, dead drunk drivers can now be sued.


Everyone gets paid!

I think she should be entitled to sue for damages against the Kid's estate, but not the parent's.

lolol what kind of an estate does an 18 year old have?

"Congratulations, you've just won a judgment against the dead 18 year old's estate for your injuries"

"woot! what do I get?"

"Let's see...2 hoodies, 4 pairs of jeans, 3 ratty t-shirts, some dirty underwear, and an ipod in a pear tree."

his parents probably have a life insurance policy out...

sadly people die all the time at a young age, and funerals don't give a discount.

You might be surprised to see what some people have in their estate at such a young age.

Hypothetical: Grandparents left the kid a small trust that he gets when he turns 18.
