What has gotten into this world and MMORPGs?!

What, so you've never paid for software before? You think just cause data has not tangable quality it doesn't have value? I mean, how rich is Bill Gates?

Listen, most of the shit you spend money on is as worthless as online items in mmo's. That tv you have, doesn't do anything productive. The computer your on, be honest now, is mostly for internet porn with a side of GFF (Maybe, on occasion, you use it for writing a paper). Anybody who's ever purchased a concert ticket, gone to a sports event, or went to the movies has essentially done the same thing as purchasing an mmo item - done something that makes them happy. And that shouldn't be a problem for anybody (unless your a bigot).

How ya doing, buddy?

So, what? you've never paid money to go see a concert? or to see a movie? that's dropping money and nothing to show for it. But you're right that's a pretty insane idea.

Probably why Hollywood only makes a few hundred million dollars each weekend

There's nowhere I can't reach.
