Tell what to him. Tell him congratulations on your thesis but you haven't said anything of what he did. Im not saying that no real world economic strategies will work in Wow. Im saying the one the OP proposes wont with the items that matter. Whether or not your guildmate did whatever he did with whatever item doesn't prove anything in the OP's behalf. Elaborate if your going to prove a point.Talon Blackrazor said:Tell that to my former guildmate who wrote his macro-economics thesis on how real-world economic principles can be applied to artificial virtual markets, such as the ones in MMORPGs.
He generated his data from two servers whose economies he controlled, one established, and one recently released. His approach was different, controlling the price on limited availability items rather than market flooding, but demostrated that there is nothing magicial about the WoW market that protects it from real-world economic practices.
Btw my dad owns the internet.
