Explain this

[N1ckluvn]

So gold farmer in asia abuse their workers right?

Personally i would have to say that i would rather be forced to do manual labour than to sit there hours on end cutting fucking trees, or fighting chickens for 10+ hours a day.

Boycott, usfine and gold4rs? I think YES

Overpriced dinks, think they can torture people to sell virtual goods.

SMD usfine and gold4rs.

Explain what...?

How and where did you find this information. Please list a source/article. I wouldn't mind reading it.

LOL this occured during the ERA before bots became so finely tuned.

chinese gold farmers would kill green dragons in wilderness!

but the reality is now they use bots.. and then sell for rediculous prices to those who are too lazy to bot for themselves XD

 

[Elektrey]

they bot but im sure they have people babysitting them all day.

 

[Tckr]

I think most people do, Sythe is a much better place.

 

[Darkstassassin]

They just have cheaper work over there.

But also alot of their goods are cheaper, so they're making decent money, why complain?

 

[lady_king]

THey bot nowdays sir.
It's just they have just many workers that talk with buyers I guess.
And maybe 1 to babysit the bots,?

Jagex made an article, and a lot of sites still require their staff to manually do it.

Is there a reason you made this thread, or is it just a random rage thread?

 

[v1ct0r]

The workers choose to work there in their own right. I'm sure if you gave each worker the opportunity to quit the job they would choose to stay. The fact that these companies are present mean that jobs are also present.

 

[Mantitz]

I thought this for games like WoW where you can't bot.

Do 10 hours of landscaping everyday for 1 week and your mind will be changed

 

[Quadro]

LMAO what person would want to do manual labor over playing a video game for 8 hours a day?

Not rage, i just found it funny. hahaha

 

[Elektrey]

Anyone see the article that was posted here before about chinese prisoners being forced to play video games? I'm sure most of them don't want to do it.

TO CLARIFY: I am quite sure that the article you are talking about was saying how prison guards forced prisoners to goldfarm on WOW. Not rs! The article never said anything about Gold4RS. But i don't like that company mainly because they still support powerbot.

that was just one article in one game
It shows they are willing to force labor to make them money.

Ya i remember seeing a video a few years back showing everthing that went on, all these grown asians with computers going at it all day lol

Most Gold Farming Sweat Shops are located in developing countries, that have not developed as sophisticated an economy as the US and Europe. 2008 figures showed that the Gold Farming business generated several billion yuan, or nearly 300 million USD. See this article here, for more information.
