Full Version: An EPIC Mount...

Now, first I don't play WoW...but I know some people who do, and I hate how it takes over people's lives. I mean, I'm not a fan of any MMORPG - but this is just insane...

You don't need to play WoW to find this hilarious, you just need to pretty much know what it is.



Now, for those who don't play - I asked a friend of mine who does, and he says 5000 gold is worth about $800USD. $800 to sleep with that lady? Prostitutes look much better, and are much cheaper...

lmfao...........I don't even know what there is to say about that...

I'd post the link to that site, but it's been 'tainted'. laughing.gif

laughing.gif well that is one way to get the gold I suppose, I'm struggling to get the cash for my non-flying epic mount (well I was before I cancelled my account) yet alone a flying one, some people take the game way too seriously.

Someone just said to me

could be an idea for a t-shirt design. "WWYD For an Epic Mount?"

Hiring a prostitute would have been cheaper.....AND better looking.... and likely given better results. Yech!

Wow, how extremly sad. I personally hate WoW, it is boring and too many people become addicted.

Well, I've been a player ever since release, I've quit a couple of times, but the normal you see isn't always the normal everyone else sees. Captain Obvious comment, but people like to do different things.

This story really makes me laugh though, someone KINDA selling themselves for in game money. I don't see how you could consider her a prostitute since the figures of $800 bucks are if he actually paid for the gold, which is against the TOS. 5000 gold is easy to come by if you spend enough time playing at maximum level.

Altogether, this story has a happy ending for both parties involved. tongue.gif

The alliance are for kids and adults with mental problems.

I play WoW but something like that just baffles me why would someone do that for digital data which if broken down is nothing more then billions of ones and zeros

Oh we're all equal now .. aside from the racial abilities. Horde = Overpowered lol

But nah, had my friends not started Alliance in the beginning, I'd be horde myself. BUT, having a 70 rogue and 68 (right now) paladin, I'm kind-of a walking thottbot for quests. I'd also have 4 70's had I not deleted characters in their 30's due to aesthetics. lol

And I agree with ya andy, it is odd behavior, but Captain Obvious prevails again with different strokes, different folks. original.gif

You could argue that about money too, value is not objective. tongue.gif

But people still hold value to those items. There is a huge market over MANY games for these imaginary items... kinda weird I know, but yeah it's there. tongue.gif

What do yo mean nevermind? (looks at start of thread) Of course you can!
Κeith
That's my point. I was saying you could use 'real' money to do that, instead of buying 'fake' items, but the opposite of that was going on already.
andyjamison
lol that is true
