I am being serioius. WoW has actually been analyzed in the past for a number of things including how diseases spread in real life (I am serious. I will find the article if you want) as well as how real life markets work. WoW has a very strict policy on bots for this exact reason. They buy up items cheap and then often times marks them up dramatically. And all of this is done faster than a human can do. It is interesting to see the similarities because WoW bots also have a database of past sales and buys, so they know also when the price is dropping or rising and will change to meet the need.Daniel Stahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929486581075009512noreply@blogger.com
