New tactic for bad COD players.....

[url=http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/apr/23/bad-loser-call-duty-gamer-calls-swat-team-teen-who/]When you lose, SWAT the winner to show them some REAL firepower[/url]. Consequences will never be the same. [url=http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/teen-sends-cops-home-foe-beat-call-duty-article-1.1765656]About 3 p.m., the caller said his foe had killed his brother and mother, but cops arriving at the Long Beach address found his 17-year-old video game opponent playing “Call of Duty” in his own home, CBS 2 reported. The hoax – involving more than 70 emergency responders – appears to have been an instance of a careless “game” called Swatting.[/url]

  • From what I am reading/hearing, the call to police was made via Skype and dialed into the non-emergency, non-911 line (which doesn't have the ability to quickly locate/verify the location of the caller). As much as I hate to suggest it, MS may want to consider registering the numbers for non-emergency police departments and when calls are placed to them via Skype? A log of the caller's IP and other information. That log would be available to law enforcement upon request after incidents such as this. Of course, that information is probably already logged somewhere and my suggestion is already in place. Imagine the look on the face of the 12 year old sore loser when there's a knock on his door.
