Outsourcing MMORPGs to the Chinese

Hmm, you can always count on the Chinese to work cheaper, faster, and fill any product niche needed. Seems that affluent players of MMORPGs can outsource their light work to young Chinese workers. Basically, these online games take alot of time and effort to improve or "rank up" your online character. You don't get to be a level 60 Shaman overnight. These guys sit in front of computers and play games 12 hours a day, 7 days a week and collect online virtual gold and go on qwests. Then they sell their character for real money. This is another example of the virtual world driving real world economics.
