    Peons4hire shut down.

    Blizzard’s lawsuit against virtual item and power-leveling company In Game Dollar (doing business as Peons4Hire) has settled, resulting in a permanent injunction (.pdf) that essentially shuts down In Game Dollar’s entire World of Warcraft operation. Though no monetary damages are specified, the injunction represents a complete victory for Blizzard. The news is likely to be well received by the World of Warcraft player community, which voiced widespread support for Blizzard’s move when the lawsuit was filed.
    Full story here: Blizzard v. In Game Dollar Update: Injunction Entered, Peons Not 4Hire in World of Warcraft Anymore | Virtually Blind | Virtual Law Apparently they aren't allowed to access WoW anymore. Hopefully there will be a bit less spam in IF.

    Good, to be honest. World of Warcraft would been so much better without power leveling and gold, imagine.

    This update came in on Friday.

    First off...what's your obsession with Chris Hansen? Have you had a bad experience with him, or something? o.O

    Second...uh...I don't really have much to say about this.
    Link to my guide: https://www.mmowned.com/forums/wow-g...rd-policy.html | I'm retired, please don't PM me. Thanks.
