Get this! A Japanese couple gets married in an online game while they don't know each other in "real life" (RL).
The virtual marriage goes bad and the virtual husband divorces the virtual wife without giving her prior notice.
The virtual wife then finds out about the virtual divorce and gets angry in RL.
So then she decides to get even and kills the virtual husband in the online game.
You'd think, so what? It's all virtual anyway, no one gets hurt in RL anyway.
Not so, apparently.
Virtual husband's RL feelings get hurt, so he files a RL police report against virtual wife.
Virtual wife gets arrested in RL and now faces serious RL charges.

TOKYO - A 43-year-old Japanese piano teacher's sudden divorce from her online husband in a virtual game world made her so angry that she logged on and killed his digital persona, police said Thursday.
She used his identification and password to log onto popular interactive game "Maple Story" to carry out the virtual murder in mid-May, a police official in northern Sapporo City said on condition of anonymity, citing department policy.
"I was suddenly divorced, without a word of warning. That made me so angry," the official quoted her as telling investigators and admitting the allegations.
