These two articles deal with the phenomenon of people around the world playing MMORPGs (massively multiplayer online role playing games) like World of Warcraft in order to make money off of selling in game items and money. The feelings of the players, the people making the money, and game creators are mixed. As far as the regular players go, some don't care, and some are vehemently opposing them. Game creators are mixed as well, some are angry they are not getting a cut of the profits, and others don't care as along as all the players pay their monthly fees.
