Careful with posting other's personal info and starting fights online kids...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/6157190.stm (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/6157190.stm)
A man has been jailed for more than two years after carrying out the UK's first "web-rage" attack on an internet user.
Paul Gibbons, 47, assaulted John Jones, 43, at his Essex home, after the pair exchanged insults in an internet chatroom, the Old Bailey heard.
Gibbons, of Bermondsey, south-east London, tracked down father-of-three Mr Jones to Clacton, from personal details he put online.
He was armed with a pickaxe handle and was with a man carrying a machete.
Mr Jones was beaten and had his neck cut after going to the door of his home with a knife.
The dangers of giving personal information out in a chatroom environment must never be underestimated
Det Sgt Jean-Marc Bazzoni
"It is accepted by the prosecution that Mr Jones taunted you and dared you to go to his house where you would be greeted with weapons," Judge Richard Hawkins told Gibbons.
Gibbons admitted unlawful wounding last month after the prosecution agreed not to proceed with charges of attempted murder and threats to kill.
"The circumstances are unusual," said Judge Richard Hawkins after passing sentence.
"This case highlights the dangers of internet chatrooms, particularly with regards to giving personal details that will allow other users to discover home addresses," said Investigating Officer Det Sgt Jean-Marc Bazzoni of Essex Police.
"All the victims were targeted by Paul Gibbons following a disagreement in a chatroom and threats to kill were made on the website."
Mr Bazzoni said Mr Jones' "terrifying ordeal" was a consequence of "upsetting somebody he had never even met".
"The dangers of giving personal information out in a chatroom environment must never be underestimated."

If someone's dumb enough to hunt me down and come to my house to do me harm over internet insults, I hope they like getting shot at. As the guy's laying on my front porch bleeding out, I'll be sure to ask him if it was worth it. ::)

Most the guys that throw around all the threats on Getbig would never leave the security of being behind their own computer...The others that would have chance of taking action against someone that pissed them off over the internet are ultimately just that stupid...Goatboy said what would be true in most cases...Show up on someones private property and intend to do physical harm, don't expect to take to many steps in the yard until you get shot lol....And then arrested on top of it....

Exactly.
I live in a gated community with only 14 other houses. If someone is knocking on my door and it's not one of my neighbors, all of whom I know, and I haven't just cleared anyone through the guardhouse, and don't know who the person is or what they want, you can bet I'm answering the door with a gun in my hand.

Use Skype. Cannot track that. I think you can record your conversation as well and save the audio file. Now that would be entertainment. Call Billy Gunns too. ;D
