Blizzard (World of Warcraft) sues Gold Farming Company
In the latest twist and turns of Massively Online gold famers, Blizzard is sueing one of the larger gold famers in the industry as posted in their forums.
A quote from the website:
Blizzard has filed a federal lawsuit against the operators of Peons4hire, a popular gold-selling organization which many of you have no doubt seen advertised. As part of the lawsuit, the operators of Peons4hire have been asked to immediately cease all in-game spamming efforts by all entities and websites under their control.
It’s interesting to see how this pans out, a lot of these gold farmers are not actually based in the US and it will be interesting to see how MMORPG’s deal with spam and gold farmers because while there are some that don’t want it, there is an awful lot of people who benefit silently from their efforts, hence the industry.
