Lawsuit Filed Against IGE for Gold Farming?

OMG! Yep, it’s true! I really can’t believe it is true but someone has actually filed a Class-Action lawsuit against IGE. If you live under a rock, IGE is the largest gold supplying company. Here is a brief tidbit of what the lawsuit is (thanks for the info Terra Nova):

“The case involves IGE’s calculated decision to reap substantial profits by knowingly interfering with and substantially impairing the intended use and enjoyment associated with consumer agreements between Blizzard Entertainment and subscribers to its virtual world called World of Warcraft.”

You can read the rest of the legal talk document back at Terra Nova. I’m still not sure what I think about this whole thing but I bet IGE has some really high-priced lawyers that may do the trick with getting them out of this.

To me it really is funny and i’ll be watching this whole thing unfold as will thousands of players around the world and not to forget the thousands of gold farmers will be watching this as well.

For IGE and the other gold sellers I believe the market is just too big and too much money flowing through it for it to be the beginning of the end.

Could this be the beginning of the end of buying WoW gold or am I (along with other bloggers) blowing this whole thing out of proportion?
