That is like a form of internet darwin award. Holy crap I can't believe that many people are that dumb. Well, I guess I can. Edit: I know they said they probably weren't going to do it, but they are probably going to have to go back to the ladder system. I don't see how else they will keep this game afloat currently. That won't stop gold farmers, but it will make them generally less profitable, especially if they can actually start shutting down some bots. | ||

And since you can run them 24/7, you're looking at 1.3 million a year. | ||

Thats the thing, you can go do 8hours of work and buy what would have taken you a week or more of boring ass grinding(if you're not abusing the system yourself), and instead just jump right in and have some fun killing everything in sight. | ||

Now if the system remains unchanged you can buy good gear by spending like 5-10$, thus allowing everyone to complete Inferno with ease. If there is no challenge anymore, they will quickly quit the game. | ||

If there's a gold flood when the RMAH finally is implemented and gold is basically nothing worth anymore (like 1$/mil) people will gear themselves VERY VERY FAST. Even now, without the inferno nerf, you can defeat the game with good gear relatively easily. You may have to skip a champion pack here and there but it's doable for gear which is worth under 10mil. Now if the system remains unchanged you can buy good gear by spending like 5-10$, thus allowing everyone to complete Inferno with ease. If there is no challenge anymore, they will quickly quit the game. You realize items will just increase in price right.. rofl. $10 will get you like a single piece of good gear maybe. | ||

It won't happen now, because gold find is an affix and also attached to at least one skill. But they bought themselves into a lot of this trouble by doing that in the first place. As has been said, it's a lot harder to design bots to farm items the way Blizzard intends players to, but no matter how attractive they try to make it, gold farming will always be an easier option. | ||

I can probably make like 3m on average/h on siegebreaker runs which put's me something like 20$/h by playing a game (For the past few days I've had at least 25m/day) and those >400$ just got from a reseller sure came handy. You should have jumped on the bandwagon sooner little over a week ago it was $33/mil | ||
