This is where I take exception.  You seem to think that just because
you were around back in 'the good ole days' that this means you
and by definition everyone who is an 'old time gamers' has a sense of
ethics (thats the inference in the post)  and those who are younger do
not. This is just plain BS. Just because many of the gamers online 
are younger who are pking doesn't mean all young gamers arel bad. The
number of younger gamers pking is higher because I dare say the total
number of younger gamers playing Diablo is higher then that of us old
timers.  Teenagers by definition can be malicious creatures and its
obvious that many of them are being malicious online but that doesn't
mean all of them are. Or that all "old timers' are saints.
