Why buying WoW Gold makes more sense than buying dollars
The nice guys over at Maxim.com explains why game currencies have more value than your dollars.
We dont need their help to calculate the value of one goldpiece in WoW though, its $0,03305 over at Gamely Gold.

Buy World of Warcraft Gold
A gold buying update. Many (all?) sellers have trouble delivering gold right now. This is because blizzard has issued a patch that delays all in game gold-transfers up to one hour. It makes it possible for Blizzard to intercept and confiscate gold.
Due to this, many deliveries are delayed and has to be resent. Many many gold buyers are right now complaining because they believe they have been frauded; that isnt neccessarily the case. Every serious company that delivers gold are trying their absolutly maximum to deliver their gold even if its costing them expensive extra gold for every order at this moment.
It is very probable that in the future gold deliveries will be done via some other means. So, if you bought world of warcraft gold in the last week or soo, please dont get all to worked up; it is a temporary problem that will be resolved!

Two very interesting topics to read up on
Wired writes about voice chat in games:
But after a few hours he said he was getting tired of using text chat — and asked me to switch over to Ventrilo, an app that lets gamers chat using microphones and voice. I downloaded Ventrilo, logged in, dialed him up and …
… realized he was an 11-year-old boy, complete with squeaky, prepubescent vocal chords. When he laughed, his voice shot up abruptly into an octave range that induced headaches and probably killed any dogs within earshot. Oh, and he used “motherfucker” about four times a sentence, except when his mother came into his bedroom to check on him.
Voice Chat Can Really Kill the Mood on WoW
New York Times writes about the life of a chinese gold farmer:
It is estimated that there are thousands of businesses like it all over China, neither owned nor operated by the game companies from which they make their money. Collectively they employ an estimated 100,000 workers, who produce the bulk of all the goods in what has become a $1.8 billion worldwide trade in virtual items. The polite name for these operations is youxi gongzuoshi, or gaming workshops, but to gamers throughout the world, they are better known as gold farms.

Peons4hire goes M.I.A
Finally! Blizzard takes action against the spammers. No more unsolicited multiline messages!
As many of you know, the latest content patch, along with many great new content additions, contains technical counter-measures designed to combat in-game gold spamming. Our efforts to reduce in-game abuse and create a fun, safe environment for everyone are never-ending.
With that said, we felt that it was important to share with the community just how serious we are in our efforts to combat this type of abuse. Blizzard has filed a federal lawsuit against the operators of Peons4hire, a popular gold-selling organization which many of you have no doubt seen advertised. As part of the lawsuit, the operators of Peons4hire have been asked to immediately cease all in-game spamming efforts by all entities and websites under their control.
If this organization refuses to act accordingly, further legal action will be taken. We’ll be sure to keep you posted on the progress of this topic.
