From a gaming perspective I see where you're coming from, but from a legal perspective I think this has all kinds of bad things going on.

Theoretically I'm all for virtual economies. It shows innovation. There was a need, and ambitious young minds filled that need. Why shouldn't they be rewarded for their labors? In the words of Andrew Ryan: "Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow?"

And Bond, your comments reflect exactly why I think China's actions are funny. They aren't really communist, just as any practicing communist nation isn't communist. At best they're socialist and more likely fascist with better public relations.

There never has been a true communist nation to my knowledge.
