Chinese Gold Farm: Chinese Kids forced to play WOW for 12 hours daily

Yashpal SharmaOct 10 2006

A very strange terminology is coupled with the brand name World of Warcraft 'Gold Farmers', the characters that do nothing but farm money and high-value vendor trash in order to sell gold to other players for real-world money. The typical usage is 'Chinese Gold Farmer'.

The subject matter is that Chinese kids are being insisted to play WOW for long hectic 12 hours daily to generate virtual revenue for those bloody Gold Farmers.

In fact, the countries pay workers for the tedious gameplay. The stupid obsession was exposed by a sting operation done by a Chinese TV channel. The channel revealed that innocent kids have to play games for 12 hours having rubbish foodstuff, without being paid for the job. What a stupid job they (Gold Farmers) are doing????

The new kind of child labor I am coming across!
