Ah the surreal idiocy of paying someone real money for fantasy money! :D
-
lol, guess they're Chinese gold farmers. At least it's easier than forced manual labor.
-
That's almost amazing...all for some damn video game. Hilarious!
Now don't get me wrong, I am an AVID gamer...but I draw the line at some of the stuff that goes on.

I just can't imagine being forced to farm gold in WoW for long hours. It's not exactly playing. It's more like repeating the same boring task over and over and over. I think most folks would want to gouge out their eyes after a while.

Well, those guys were already incarcerated- it was either play, or get beaten with plastic pipes. LOL
I'm sorry, but that does not evoke a particularly fearsome image...guess it depends on whether or not they're solid or tubed.

It really isn’t a very good selling point for the game either!

LOL! Yeah, that would go real well.
And it makes me wonder about prisoner #5. :)

RIGHT. LOL

Lots of people enjoy getting hit with rattan sticks, but I'd say that having armor and being able to swing back makes it a whole other world.
And now I'm wondering what's up with the seat covers I see on eBay. :(
