China Bans Goldfarming

[theezakje]

China will never stop farming, it's there economy xD

 

[dews]

I call bullshit.

 

[-|ExtrA|-]

Lol, well that's not unexpected really..

 

[JDK]

Thats crazy. Although im sure this isnt going to stop them.

 

[i pown pjerz]

its called 'chinese slave labour' for a reason, how could china bring down their best workers?
Loopholes ftw.

 

[pl0x maauul]

If goldfarming is a multi-million dollar business, then I am positive they will do it illegally. Look at weed

Weed..? I'm not seeing any >_< Oh wait.. sorry I think it's in on the table.

Anyway... I think Gold4rs style companies should be allowed to operate, just with regulations. Prevent them from working ridiculous hours and being taken advantage of. The Chinese "Democracy" can just take a cut, and promote them to the point where it's a profitable venture.

 

[xPHOBIAx]

Haha, China For Control Freaks.

 

[gh0st_f4ce]

Like the article said, this will only scare off the small shops. The bigger organizations will eventually find loopholes and continue to operate.

This cant be good considering I just sold my account to Gold4RS, though they did say that only GOLDFARMING was illegal. I dont know, im a little confused. Hopefully I get my payment for my account.

 

[Insame]

[Atled6543]

[Elite Order]

They don't care about China banning goldfarming.

I don't really think this will stop gold farming, China has been supplying most MMO's since they day they came out. Even after Runescape was trade limited, they figured there way around this obstacle because of how much money is to be made. I don't think China should have the right to outlaw this though as this employs thousands of people.

Edit: I bought gold from Gold4RS and the amount of hours they work is unheard of. My account was logged it for 56 Hours Straight, without any breaks. Restrictions would be a good idea, but banning it all together is a fail IMO.

Woah that is a ton of money virtual farmers are making. However, when it comes down to each farmer they get very little. China can do it cause their communist I think. Why in the world stop this though? LOL, it makes no sense......

 

[Level3kidz]

wow, news to me lol glad to see gold farming is going to die :}

 

[Lord-Kedge]

Go china !

 

[greenteashirt]

Its like a job for them to goldfarm... If buying 10m for 25 dollars from them can feed them for a month... whose to say its a bad thing?

 

[Solved]

Finally, I hate goldfarmers at WoW too they ruin the economy.

 

[Wooz]
