Online or offline, makes no difference. I've received a WHOLE bunch of them online. Including quite a few on here. Can't link you to the thread (since it was pre-newness) about it pretty much told me that they were hoping they would find out where I lived so they could stab me in my sleep. I told them my address. That was 4 years ago, still haven't stabbed me, and I live at the same house. Oh well. Not my fault they don't know how to spell basic words and spell them like "a-gree" and "Matricks" and "alot"
Also, people take games too seriously, and my inbox on live is full of hatemail/death mail from adoring fans who don't appreciate me knocking them off of buildings or shooting at them when they are in a firefight. I'm only showing my love and appreciation at you claiming you are going to "carry" the team then go -10. (who cares if 9 of those deaths are fake betrayals where I shoot you 3 times in the back and the enemy shoots your head and kills you) No need to be all like "I hope you choke on a dick" or "I want to kill you and teabag your body." No need to go all violent.
Anyways, what's your favorite death threat you've ever received?

On Bnet? Just a few people who take the interbutts too seriously to a point where it's laughably pathetic. On any other site? No. On video games? There's a reason why I get a ton of hatemail and indictments on Dark Souls. That and hearing shrilly 7 year old kids rage on CoD got old in high school. Although, it's funny to hear their mom come in and yell at them through the microphone. In real life? I don't think anyone would be able to come within 1400 feet of me in a second.
