Quote from a player:
"Quite literally, I and a couple friends of mine encountered a stranger and we were raped and forced to strip dance in GTA online. It was like a "traumatic life" simulator."
Grand Theft Auto mods have the power to do really cool unintended things—like let players ride a UFO, or submerse the entire game underwater. They also have the power to make things rather unpleasant for other players.
[b]This NSFW post contains content that some readers may find uncomfortable.[/b]
According to online reports and forums, modders have created a few abilities that come together in a specific brand of "trolling." Players can use mods to change their character models to anything they'd like—and some players choose to turn themselves into pantless characters. Using mods, players can also manipulate other players into doing specific things, all through the usage of a special menu. The menu varies depending on the mod used, but this one in particular has an entire section dedicated to "naughty stuff:"
As you can see on the left, mods like these grant people the ability to force other players to do things like pole dance and do push-ups. Some modders choose to make other players bend over, and then proceed to use a sex animation from a different part of the game to thrust into them repeatedly, thus making it look like they're raping them. Depending on whether or not the modder has made themselves invincible, victims can't do much in response once the modder is done, as you can see in these NSFW videos:

I hope this doesn't delay online heists.
Reminds me of that Hot Coffee San Andreas mod.

Patricia Hernandez blowing shit like this out of proportion. Again. Tasteless? Sure. Stupid? Sure. But to start saying this is rape and shit is just disrespectful.
Did rape really have to be censored in the title?

I didn't want to trigger anyone :^)
[QUOTE=ilikecorn;45635718]If reading the word "rape" actually triggers you, you don't need to be on the internet, you need to be in therapy and heavily medicated.[/QUOTE]
Please tell that to all the special snowflakes on Tumblr

I identify as the character Frankenstein so please refer to me as fran or frankenself from now on. Thank you for your courtesy.
I got roped when I was a child. Last time I got triggered was when I was watching Justice League and Wonder Woman threw her...thing on someone
Oh boy, now I'm in one of my r*pe moods :dance:
Seriously? This Chr0m3 guy again? Blown all out of proportion.

What the h*ck?
Dude, putting the star there doesn't stop ANYONE from inferring what you're saying, Kotaku writer. If there was a trigger warning, you'd just leave it at that or spell out rape.
Seeing this online is really funny.
you guys are all hilarious

Or maybe just journalism in general. :v:

Actually maybe no this seems like a bad idea.
I got about three paragraphs into that one before I went "You know what? I'll bet Patricia Hernandez wrote th-oh god damnit."
This is not rape. Calling it rape delegitimizes actual rape.
Patricia Hernandez is a fucking idiot. Somebody at Gawker needs to send her back to Tumblr where she belongs.
Rope culture is a serious problem

[quote]Part of a victim impact statement was read out at court. The woman described how the ordeal had left her suffering panic attacks.
She now refuses to sit out in the garden on her own because she fears men may force their way in and she panics when someone knocks on her door.[/quote]
