For digest readers who are in the press job: I am speaking against those of you who write disinformation about subjects they do not know at all, not against all journalists. And believe me, some papers published total rubbish about RPGs.
"Worried parents" associations wrote some more attacks agains RPGs, the gaming associations replied "Stop nonsense", etc. All in the norm, it is just the sort of thing that happens when well-thinking parents come in contact with something they do not understand. Please note that the suicide boy's family DID NOT speak against RPGs at all. And this is the only opinion of note. For theose of you who can read Italian, follow the link marked "web master" from my home page at <http://www.geco.it/~guccione>. The web master is the headman of the Italian LARP society, the Guild of Anachronists, and has collected a lot of info about what happened.
So Fredeeric and others, stop worrying about anti-RPG crusades. Italians are not more stupid than other people, and this sort of things gets the attention it deserves in our country.
