Hehe that happens all the time, though 80.000 isn't much. Some people get scammed for billions of ingame currency and the fun thing is that it's all allowed :D.

The WoW viral infection is brilliant. They brought it upon themselves!

At the moment my fav would either be Duke Nukem 3D(Atomic Edition) or Magic Carpet 2:the Netherworlds (not the Netherlands)

The viral study is flawed because people worked out how the infection spread and took it upon themselves to make it worse and bypass quarantines. Such a model would have to assume that the population has a disproportionately large proportion of evil virologists.

Lol I have to admit, that's awsome.
