Gold Buying - Time Saver or Cheating?
Sunday's online version of The Wichita Eagle has a piece on buying gold in a MMOG. The author of the piece examines what's involved, and ponders whether such an action is cheating, or just a shortcut. From the article: "Getting my gold was a snap. The smallest quantity for sale by IGE was 500 pieces for $60, about twice what I wanted to spend. I decided to go for it, however, as I simply could not abide the prospect of skinning even one more level-10 boar. Within 20 minutes, the gold appeared in my WoW character's mailbox." From a Cathode Tan post. What is your opinion: Cheating or Shortcut?
Dude, I hate to be a grammar nazi, but you didn't even come close to spelling terrorism right. You do know how to use a spell-checker, right?
Karma: Chameleon (mostly due to the fact that you come and go).
There is one simple easy and affordable way to avoid theese problems. Stop wasteing your time on MMORPGs. People are stupid. People cheat, bot, and spend WAY too much time doing things that have no point. WoW, Guild Wars, EQ2, it's all the same. Time passes in real life, you pay for a game that gets boring in 20 minutes, and you have to deal with the "n00b" spamming. MMORPGs are not worth the time and money. Yes multiplayer online D&D games are fun, but theese days it's impossible to have the kind of time they DESIGN theese games to take. They are not interested in your game experience.. They want one thing: your money. If you really just want to spend your time and money send a check to me, and mow my grass. MMORPGs are the ultimate capatalist ideal, Give nothing and make millions.
