    Lol, when I read the title I first thought the "virtual murder" was done by PVP. But still 5 years is still a lot for this.

    It's a game but if someone comes and deletes your data they deserve to pay a fine or serve jail time.

    Exactly.

    She just happened to do something stupid while breaking in and changing the data (or deleting it).

    LOL wow, a fine maybe but no jail!
    It's like hacking, but to a much less degree. Then again, game characters might be a big deal for Japanese ;)

    I think it was more along the lines of 'hacking'.

    The word "Killing" is only used to draw attention to the news article. This is like any other case of cyber crime.

    It's a big deal to the players. Remember the case of the Chinese player who actually DIED playing??? It's crazy. :D
