Pwned, but for real?

The BBC is reporting of the first British “Web-Rage” attack.

Paul Gibbons, 47, tracked down John Jones using details obtained online after the pair exchanged insults in an internet chatroom, a court heard.

He travelled 70 miles to Mr Jones’ home in Clacton, Essex, and beat him up with a pickaxe handle in December 2005.

It turns out they were having a Religious argument on Yahoo. I guess that explains everything.
