Gold farming site sold for 10 million USD
My MMO Inc purchases massive gold site
Word on the grapevine this morning reveals to us that MyMMOShop.com has been sold for a whopping 10 million USD to a private equity firm called My MMO Inc.
Kotaku reveal that the gold farming site represents what its investors believe is a safe investment during turbulent economic conditions.
While gold farming is clearly big business, many MMO operators - such as Square Enix, Blizzard, and Mythic, aren't really very fond of the practice, claiming that it damages their in-game economy and is bad for players.
"MyMMOShop.com appealed to us because of its strong reputation for providing optimal customer service," offered My MMO Inc's Hunter Crowell, undeterred. "That focus will continue with our purchase."
