It's all about the rules of the game. If the rules say you can pay cash to get virtual stuff, fine. If you don't like it, leave the game (as I did, EQ2). if the Code of Conduct says buying gold is cheating (which it does for WoW), then its cheating.

This guy thought he was special...that the rules did not apply to him...
