Are kids responsible for online cowardly theft?

Back in Elementary School, before year 2006. I let a friend burrowed The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap for his Pokémon Yellow. He transferred to another school, and says, “his Mom loves The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, and would think I like Pokémon Yellow.” He transferred to another school, and didn’t return the game I let him burrowed. Then, in 2006. People are stealing from people in MapleStory, and stealing from people online, and can’t get back the items they gave someone online.

People was stealing from each other in MapleStory between year 2006-2010. I heard rumors about people stealing Pokemon from other Pokemon players that other players traded with.

If you steal, regardless of age, you are a thief and should be held accountable. Now the punishments will be different depending on the severity of the theft and the age of the thief, but there should still be accountability.


Kids are stupid, all-around, and if you had said something closer to the time and tried to get your stuff back, I’d be on your side. But what you are describing was back in 2006 amongst kids who probably don’t even remember ever talking with you. Holding people accountable isn’t going to do much, and they’ve probably already gotten rid of whatever they took from you.


At this point, just move on and forget about it. Or, be an adult and go out and buy the game for yourself.

Yes, but how they were raised probably plays a role in such behavior.

What if a boy was sexually victimized by a guy, then do the same thing to a female?

Fuck that! I had been victimized a lot by a lot of people offline, and made some enemies online. If people want to seek justice, then why shouldn’t I?
