Interesting how the author tries to make people who are anti-gold farming out to be china-bashing racists. :idiot:

Yeah thought that was interesting too Zet... I still don't like gold farmers, but what I dislike the MOST is the constant tells in advertising. I find it also insanly stupid that they send level 70 people tells advertising powerleveling.  :idiot:

I think they were just trying to get accross that its not the actual farmers that make the money from this. I personally hate all the tells and mail aswell but the only way sony will get around it is to ban accounts that buy and those that farm but like the article said they would end up upsetting a big portion of the community

Sony should have a chat with Blizzard. After the latest WoW patch, goldselling spam has pretty much stopped altogether (going down from 10-15 per evening before). Not sure how hard they're coming down on the actual farmers, but I suppose if the sales plummet, the farming will eventually stop too.

I like that the article is too long for most gamer's concentration.

I will read it all eventually when I can bother.
