Spiderweb: View from the Bottom #4 @ RPG Vault

Indie cRPG developer Jeff Vogel has turned his attention to supporting gold farming in World of Warcraft (etc) for his latest View from the Bottom article at RPG Vault. It's a topic for MMORPGDot but I'll post it at RPGDot as well because I'm sure some of you are interested in his point of view. Here's my favourite quote for quite some time:

Third, gold farmers have a reputation for being obnoxious and cutthroat. In some cases, this is true. But spend a little time around the regular people you find hanging around in the game, and you will see that this is only because people are, in general, obnoxious and cutthroat. My God, but World of Warcraft and EverQuest are full of the idiot children of married cousins. Gold farmers aren't even close to having a monopoly on cretinous behavior.
