We're not sure what's going to stop players who like the game from redeeming $20 and creating a new login ID. If anything, with Wrath of the Lich King less than three weeks away, we anticipate a few WoW junkies making a temporary shift to help pay for their next fix.

Hey! I am not addicted. I can stop any time I want to. I just don't want to.

That is the definition of addiction!!! Even your will has been corrupted. You're more addicted than someone twelve-stepping it.

Anyone else heard of World of Peacecraft?
It was on gamepolitics.com today - being developed by the Quakers, and is an MMO based on peacefully fighting injustice..

Pacifism FTW! "Enter attack mode. You lay down on the ground and don't move while blocking the path of your attacker."

Or was it goldfarming, stupid MMO slang.

Isn't it like Project Entropia where you can turn in Credits into real $ and vice-versa?

This is actually an interesting incentive. They just have to be careful of grinding bots.

Sounds more like an incentive to just get people playing the game in the first place. I don't think they actually expect many people to cash-in their characters.
