For first place, MMA took home the equivalent of over $42,000 US and what must have been giant feelings of pride and accomplishment.

Kotaku is reporting about a Whorecraft star being suspended due to someone else's actions in-game. Now, I'm not entirely interested in the whole real life porn meets video games idea, but to suspend someone over something that wasn't even their fault is ludicrous.
