Ge Jin, aka Jingle - Chinese Gold Farmers in MMORPGs

1. It is a good idea to run your own if you have the means, and gullible younger siblings ;) 
2. all good until u criticized the gamers who buy access with those buy virtual items, u have answered that in your own documentary, when every1 pays $15 a month its a fair game because u then move with how much u work and how smart u are, when the other players goes on paying $1000 for virtual on top and surpass all those what happens then? 
3. No, Runescape killed itself
4. Their.
5. They killed Runescape selling there shitty gold.
6. I don't think these groups described in the video who go about killing gold farmers really give a crap about defending "intellectual property rights" or "making the World of Warcraft a better place". I doubt they pirate movies/music/ect any less often than anyone else. At least from the video these groups don't seem to have any significant impact. Speculating on their real intentions there probably is an element of xenophobia there. 
7. His conclusion at the end of the video is a strawman. The pursuit of virtual status and money is not equivalent to the purchase of virtual status and money. Gold farmers have, in fact, caused a number of problems for recent MMOs through inflation, but not for the core gameplay itself. It is up to developers to stop producing clones and provide unique content as well as relief for the casual player in order to accommodate the reality that is gold farming.
8. Given the kind of jobs a chinese person *might* have to try and scratch a living at, it could be a lot worse, right? Sure, in the UK the Health and Safety Executive would throw the book at their employer *Bigstyle* but ... hey... wow isn't unfun, is it? I've never bought gold. I farm my own, of course. on my own. =D
9. 我认为在中国代练现在面对这几个问题： 1.代练已经逐渐形成一个行业，却没有相应的行业规范。而在政府监管上这也是一个灰色领域。 2.社会并未真正接受这一行业。 以上两点都导致了这个行业不能健康的发展，员工的各项保障也无法得到保证。
10. If sports stars can earn money playing AFL, Basketball, tennis etc and is considered a profession, then hell yeah, a gamer can play WoW, Lineage etc and still be considered doing a job. And no I don't play those type of games as I don't have time due to my job.
11. As long as they arent botting I dont mind it. If they are at least doing it themselves im okay with it.
12. I think gaming should be entertainment and fun. Involving business in it doesn't make it fun anymore.
13. Fantastic, thank you :), I have just had to sit and write out every word you said because I need to reference for my dissertation and it took forever! But it was an interesting subject, so thank you .
14. Thanks for ruining runescape but meh we're getting it all back soon :D
15. The only real problem that gold farming introduces to virtual worlds is inflation that is not anticipated by the developers. Developers have many tools to deal with inflation. Gold farming is not a real problem to virtual worlds.
16. @90sjunk They are selling things that belong, not to them, but to the games companies -- which is very much illegal. Ever hear of copyright infringement?
17. @Cursefire cuz the son is under-educated and probably get both his father and him fired after a day
18. do u guys hear that? oh yes u do, "EHHH EHHH EHVERY DAY IM HUSTLIN!m EVERYDAY IM HUSTLIN!" lol have to respect these people for making a living. weather its wrong or right. if you were in the same situation where job market is down. ud do the same. i know i would.
19. What is illegal, is gaining access to people's private data including their email address and their battle.net account. 
20. i think what people seem to forget is that a persons real life status shouldn't give them an advantage in games. what gold farmers are doing is enabling people who have more money in real life to have in-game advantages by selling virtual items/money which should have to be ernt by all players the same way, by working for it. if bill gates logs into world of warcraft should he have an advantage over any other player just because he can afford to buy his way through the game? just my opinion.
