The even more fucked up thing is, with this kind of set up you could make over $12,000 a month not playing warcraft, and the guy said between his electric bill and subscription costs it cost him about $1,000 a month
botting... so basically he sets up all those accounts and uses a bot to level them to max level (probably takes a few days per account) then sells them for a couple hundred bucks each... so i count 68 copies of wow there... so i'm gunna go with about 2 characters a day hitting max level selling for a couple hundred bucks a day doing nothing but setting up accounts and selling them on various sites that people auction their characters off on......
pretty ridiculous :/
not to mention there are sites that let you sell gold to now for real cash that they go around and re sell to people who buy gold... so he could make a shitload there just using his bots to farm i mean 68 accounts making 100 gold an hour each is 6800 gold an hour... right now according to ige.com (one of the bazillion gold sellers on the internet) you can buy 1000gold for 21$.... he in theory could easily make 6800gold every hour... soo..... 60+/hour doing nothing :/
there are scripts out there (like mods that run in the background) that do that for people, so they follow a preset path (since most monsters are in specific areas anyway in wow) and automatically cast certain spells etc then automatically goes and loots the thing... rinse/repeat
and kojach i didn't put that in the description because i don't do pictures...
if you want to see some of the scripts people use for this kind of thing there is a program called wow glider that is being sued by wow right now for doing this exact thing... the guy has made over 5 million dollars in the past year selling copies of it (according to him)
they write scripts to make the character run around and attack stuff
but some people actually level characters to 70 really fast and sell them and thats their only job
sometimes gold sellers work together like they may have a team that does raids together to make gold, i know that was big in ffxi for teams of goldsellers to level together and make money together
yeah, this is obviously a person who farms gold tho i think...... using a program like wow glider they could make ... well.... insane amounts of money with that setup.
I watched a tv show on a company that paid underage kids to live in an apartment type building, watching a bunch of macros all day. They literally woke up, ate, watched the bots, made sure they met the virtual money quota and slept.
This whole concept is both fascinating, and sad in a funny way. Before I scrolled down to the comments I was gonna say "I don't get it" too. It's weird to me that people will spend real cash for money in a game. Props to the guy who wrote the bot program, and the guys who use it though, not going to work everyday would be sweet!
I also studied the picture thinking "I don't get it". Then I started thinking that I cant just say "I don't get it" in the comments 'cause im too late & it'll just never get an answer.
Good move 1rish1, & yak - Why the hell don't you do this???!
same thing in diablo2 there were bots program used to "treasure" for items , then there were auction sites you could buy the items. And some people i guess earn alot on it.
Project enotropia is worse a dude bought a spacestation for 1 000 000 PED which is 100,000$ . He put a space in a game and earned money on it, alot . The spacestation had nightclubs and approx. 1000 residents i think.
yeah some people make enough money in second life to not need real jobs they spend their time designing second life clothing and items to sell for whatever currency they use in it which equates to real money.... its completely fucked up but if people can do it they are pretty smart to take advantage of those people...
i tried eve free trial but i couldn't get into it... i didn't get past the tutorial (which is insanely long)... i mean if you like that type of game with like... strategy with spaceship it looks like it would be awesome... but i was expecting it to be a bit more like privateer or something..
in response to yak - Ever hear of Zin train? That's this guys setup, he originally used 5 accounts and had all the keys mapped to the same keyboard, then he got over zealous and tried 40man MC by him self which failed, but this array is set up for him and his girlfriend to play 23 accounts each. As for glider, they've only made 2.9million dollars, the lawsuit is a joke and blizzard will lose against MDY like they did last time.
Curse no edit button - Also, i you are a botter you make more money selling gold then you do selling the account. Selling to a private buyer who is trust worth is a bitch to do, and these account buying sites will either rent your account from you or buy it and then get it banned and chargeback their money. The sites that do actually pay you give you $20 more than the cost of the game.
ok...this whole thing of buying something that really doesnt exit except virtually....wasnt there a south park done about this????? it had something to do with canada..
Actually, in the legal paper work blizzard had a nice little fuck up saying that items and currency in their game contain value, and by automation of 3rd party programs it fucks their economy and value of shit...
Pretty much all the MMROPG that Blizzard made were profitable. Like I've mentioned before, D2 made a lot of people a lot of money. I knew this guy who made ~12 grand a month. But he had people that he got items from who made even more.
like any big pay to play game people put value on time (since it costs you money to per month to play or in some games it costs you actual money to buy things in the game itself)
so read my replies ^ up there and you'll see :P
people are stupid enough to pay for a character when part of the fun is building up your own... waste of money. you can never be the best character in the game, cause some korean is always better.
Unless you can play 24/7 without shitting or eating, some korean is going to be better than you at a MMORPG. A korean died at a 'LAN party' because he didn't shit.
He could set up some kind of imaginary brothel in that 'Age of Conan' game from a couple of days ago and make a killing off the nerds of Muchosucko alone!
hurt them how? :P
the people spending the money obviously have the money to spend, and the people making it obviously make enough to make it worthwhile... its pretty much the perfect parasite relationship actually :P
the game companies create games in which they make money by people paying per month, in which other people make money off of other people who are willing to pay them money.... its a win win win situation for all of them ;/
The days of easy money are coming to an end and people won't be spending on stupid shit they don't need. If they don't have any useful skills, they'll be fucked.
where can I find these people? I don't mind picking up their highschool daughters for 6$
10 highschool girls a day is 60 bucks, 5 days, nice 300 bucks and I get extra privledges
Comments to Pwnzorz
I don't get it.
neither do i, and i used to play the fucking game

Me either.

gee yak why couldnt you just put that in the description
How does it automatically level up without him actually playing or find gold for that matter?
there are scripts out there (like mods that run in the background) that do that for people, so they follow a preset path (since most monsters are in specific areas anyway in wow) and automatically cast certain spells etc then automatically goes and loots the thing... rinse/repeat

Because Deja handles the pictures, asshat.
Wow... Several interposters.

I don't get it.
there was a heist in eve online that was the biggest robbery in mmo history
it made me start to play eve but when i found out it was point and click and not actually flying spaceships i was like fuck this
i tried eve free trial but i couldn't get into it... i didn't get past the tutorial (which is insanely long)... i mean if you like that type of game with like... strategy with spaceship it looks like it would be awesome... but i was expecting it to be a bit more like privateer or something..
ok yak...get up from the computer.....walk to the door...go outside...get some sun and fresh air....its good for you
Seriously i never realised yak was such a WOW twat
and i thought i spent too much time playing videogames

It looks like he's either his own game domain or he's trying to run 5,000 WoW characters at the same time.
See above...
Don't worry, I did. When I first commented, the other comments weren't there...
liar
So someone explain to me how he's gettin paid doing this. I don't know shit about this WOW shit.
like any big pay to play game people put value on time (since it costs you money to per month to play or in some games it costs you actual money to buy things in the game itself)

i don't know what that is, but its' probably gay as shit
If it is what Yak says it is, it's cool as shit.
if you think being rich by doing nothing is gay... yeah its flaming
;/
I think the gayness comes from the retards who actually buy the imaginary characters and gold.
One mans trash is another mans treasure.
I rather play tetris
FUCK YES!!! AMEN
He could set up some kind of imaginary brothel in that 'Age of Conan' game from a couple of days ago and make a killing off the nerds of Muchosucko alone!
Age of Conan sux
Did you hear about the sex?
Oh I heard about it Arch.

FORM A POSSE!
Fuck off jpshitlord. I get the impression you're not old enough to be on here, or you must be retarded. Either way, just fuck off.
kill yourself sithturd
..............FART..................
Couldn't have said it better myself!
WOW is for fags!
People doing nothing useful to take money from others who do nothing useful. The next few years are gonna hurt a lot of useless fucks.
hurt them how? :P
the people spending the money obviously have the money to spend, and the people making it obviously make enough to make it worthwhile... its pretty much the perfect parasite relationship actually :P
the game companies create games in which they make money by people paying per month, in which other people make money off of other people who are willing to pay them money.... its a win win win situation for all of them ;/
just like dealer - consumer. everyones happy
Except for the fact that nothing PRODUCTIVE is getting done when all of these goofs are at home, doing whatever it is they do.
The days of easy money are coming to an end and people won't be spending on stupid shit they don't need. If they don't have any useful skills, they'll be fucked.
Actually what you are describing would be a mutualistic symbiosis rather than parasitic.
People play World of warcraft? How gay.
HAX!!!
Yak - you're way to excited about all of this!!
I do this in real life. Guys pay me $6 a piece to pick up kids from the grade school.
how much for high school kids?
where can I find these people? I don't mind picking up their highschool daughters for 6$
10 highschool girls a day is 60 bucks, 5 days, nice 300 bucks and I get extra privledges
Who said they were "their" daughters?
