sometimes you are flattered by some business models. in an article on derstandard.at christian lutz presented their new project (lutz built up two of the biggest online communities in austria - sms.at and uboot.com). name of the project: fatfoogoo. Business model: people can sell and buy virtual items inside MMORPG’s.
What strikes me as the most incrompehensible fact is: No successfull MMORPG Service provider allows the trading of virtual items against real world currencies. The reasons are of course simple: “Gold Farming” and “Botting” greatly diminishes the peoples game experience not only by ruining server economies. Anyone who actually plays MMORPG’s knows by heart that this project will fail.
