Banned PSNer Sues

A San Jose gamer banned for his behavior in playing Resistance wants $55,000 from Sony and a judge to tell their mods to stop banning people. Erik Estavillo, in a complaint filed July 6 and reported by GamePolitics today, also alleges that Sony Computer Entertainment's comprehensive ban of him from the PlayStation Network constitutes theft, in the form of deprived access to prepaid PSN currency. The pain and suffering bit comes from Estavillo's agoraphobia, which is fear of crowds and/or open spaces - so this is, he says, his only safe way to interact with others. And, naturally, he's bitching about his First Amendment rights, too. He wants $55,000 in punitive damages and an injunction against all further banning. It seems Estavillo's representing himself.

This is more proof why no one should ever buy a Sony product ever again.

You know--I hope this kid never breeds.

I mean--yeah, he got banned from PSN... guess what, the interwebs is a _large_ place. There are plenty of other places he can goto until he smartens up, and learns what a moron he is... possibly making a decent member to another community somewhere else.

But that is being optimistic.

He'll prolly be another one of the kids who hangs himself because somebody online suggested that to him.

don't do stupid things and you won't get banned.
