World of Warcraft Gold Limit Reached, It's 2^31
Mitch writes "Blizzard apparently used signed integers for their World of Warcraft gold values as some people have recently hit the limit of 2^31. "Apparently that amount is 214,748 gold, 36 silver, 48 copper. After you reach that lofty sum, you'll no longer be able to receive money from any source in the game. While some responses to the original posts claim that this exact limit had previously been theorized to exist, there have been no reports of anyone in the game actually achieving this amount via legal means." I guess Blizzard didn't expect anyone to ever get close to that much gold in game."
WoW produces nothing and contributes no product to society besides sucking up ennui.
It's worthless. Completely worthless.

And anything else on that list is better? Sorry, but it's not.

You are a dumbass. Of course making babies involves sex, but while sex is better then WoW, the downsides of making babies make it worse than WoW.
Oh shit, that's a good idea! I bet the problem is the developers didn't know _how_ to deal with the problem, not that they forgot or didn't think it necessary! It's a damned shame they didn't have an expert like you on the team, you'd have set them straight.
