Signs that Online Friend REALLY Likes You

C.B. Jones
-You are playing an online game with mic support and hear a loud slurping sound whenever you log on(indicating that they are licking the monitor).

-Their virtual avatar is always close to you. So close that it makes them look like a science project gone horribly wrong. Arms sticking out of it's back, an ear where it's nose should be, etc.

-They end up making a short character(elf for example), and stand REALLY close to yours. The end results makes it look like your character dabbles in pedophilia when not slaying mythical creatures.

-They suddenly become clingy and jealous of your interaction with others in the game world. In extreme cases, the obsessed loon may even call a hit out on your other friends. They won't be killed, but they may be attacked in game as a warning.

-Alternate accounts have names like "*your characters name here*'s hapless play thing", "yours forever and ever and ever and ever...", "leave me and I'll end you!!!!!!!!!1111oneone", etc.

-They sent you pictures via instant messenger or email that show a cosplayer that looks like your in game avatar, being tortured by a dominatrix(with the caption saying something along the lines of "safe words optional").
