| Gold farming is basically getting virtual currency with the intent to sell them for actual real life currency. I hope this is true cause it could allow mesos to be more valuable. Mesos becoming more valuable eventually could mean items selling for cheaper. Oh and in the article it states: According to a 2008 survey by the University of Manchester's Richard Heeks, between 80 and 85 percent of gold farmers are based in China. Not sure how reliable that is, but even if it's in that ballpark that's a very high percentage. |
