For example Ofcom is the regulator for communications, Ofwat the regulator for water, what is the overall authority for computer games, (including console games, online mmorpg's etc - [infact especially online gaming as I have a complaint about a certain company and don't know who to contact])

The regulators you refer to are for industries which are, of have in the past been, monopolies or near monopolies. I'm pretty sure there's nothing similar for computer games.

However, if you have a complaint about the content of a game (e.g. violence, sex, etc) you could try:

On the other hand, if you feel you've been treated unfairly or ripped off, I would think this is a matter for your local Tradings Standards Office. More info here:

Nah The Legend of Mir3, they have a whole set of rules saying you can't be racist, you can't give people abuse or unwanted harassment or we'll ban you.

People have implied that someone I know molests their children.......

QGO (running the game) have done nothing about it and say they are going to do nothing about it :-/ so i'm kinda wondering what must be wrong in their heads.
What you need is a solicitor, not a regulator.
