  1. Re:fix it! on In-Game Gold Farming a $500M Industry · · Score: 1

    how much transfer does a gold farmer do a day?

    how many accounts would you have to burn through every day to keep up with your work?

    $15 a pop, adds up fast

  2. fix it! on In-Game Gold Farming a $500M Industry · · Score: 1

    either

    A: force all transactions through a NPC vendor and charge a incremental tax on all transfers between non linked accounts transfers.

    after the first few transfers your tax rate gets up past 30% - 40% and its no longer profitable. this will also work as an excellent gold sink, keeping the economy in check.

    B: the company sells gold for less than the farmers, making it no longer profitable.

    this of course would kill the games economy.

  3. the way it works on How Important Is Protecting Streaming Media? · · Score: 1

    once you put it out where anybody can freely access it you have given up control of it.

    you put your flash file on your web site and someone likes it they will make a copy of it, that's jsut the way it works.

    goes the same for every other file on the net.

    you can put out as many DRM and copy protection mechanisms that you want, they will just keep being broken faster than you can release them.

  7. the internet is not a democracy on How To Deal With Internet Bullies? · · Score: 1

    contrary to popular belief the internet is not a democracy, a persons rights and privileges only go as far as the webpage or forum owner wishes them to go.

    you have the right to free speech, but not on someone elses space. if you dont like the way someone does something or what someone says then you are free to make your own page and express yourself there.

    if the guy becomes a problem tell him in a private message that you don't believe they fit in well with the environment you are trying to have on your privately owned forums.

    if they wish to not play by your rules remove them from your forums and they can go make their own and talk there.
