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."
Get some help man. Really. Or at least tell someone that gives a shit how you feel just to vent.
It does get easier over time - trust me. I've got five kids (they are older now) and look back at that feed/poop time with a bizarre mix of horror and romanticism.
So hang in there, it's worth it in the end. Besides, you're in it for duration now, and if you even look at the little guy funny for this being his fault then I'll hunt you down and rip your neck open and stuff my fist up into your fucking head. Do your best and take care.
