1. at least two of them, whom i talked to, are NOT sweatshop managers. i like to ask what you based your "all of them are..." statements on.

2. as previously mentioned, i see anglicized chinese named (chinese pronounciation spelled in english) as well as korean characters. it could just be that chinese can't be used in names yet.

3 - 5. err -- i actually sold a crystalline sword... it was pretty much a give-away. i think the buyer is a guy / gal in taiwan (not mainland china).

6. doh-duh -- if you had read my post, you would have noticed that i translated the chinese with english phonem based spelling as well.

7. you talked to a bot? what did it say? "Hi, I am a bot script?" The people i talked to actually replied "hi", one guy did a /wave. that doesn't sounds like bots to me.

8. so how do you know the guys in LA D1 are not biz people? after all, they could be buying the weapons in AR IntD1 and selling in LA D1 and the extra gold they then sell on ebay?

my post based on the fact that I am a Chinese American who can speak and type Chinese and I talk with them on instant messager group chat everyday. I often get price infomation from them since they are pros in selling/buying. I myself am totally against game money for real money thing. All my transactions are not involved in real money.BTW, my post did not point to your posts, just in general clarifying some misunderstanding about them. no need to get so personal.

Quoted not necessarily for truth, but support for Chinese. XD

Anyways, some of them may be farmers, but no need to crash on the lot.

I can translate some if you like. No over-requests though

well hope that ppl which dont understand chinese, stop posting something say that they are spamming WTS on gold item, and then they "ebay" those gold.

Yeah, they're just guys in china, where the game hasn't been released yet, who happen to use the default monk model with ascetic armor and who like to hang out in Augury Rock and *only* Augury Rock, 24/7, killing griffons. The reason they don't need to stop to sell stuff to the merchant or offload to their mules isn't that they're using scripts, but that they're real fast clickers. They're not getting paid, and the gold they make isn't sold on ebay & various gold-vendor sites. The various articles, the last one in New York Times not a week ago, are mistaken or at least dont concern the guys at Augury Rock, who are all just fun-loving gamers, not professional farmers at all.

There are absolutely, positively, no breaches of EULA going on.

Nothing to see here. Move along.
