World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft has become extremely popular recently. They have added some updates that have made it boom in its numbers. Not only have they added these updates but they seem to be advertising much better than they usually do. I think that it would be really interesting to count the amount of people are playing and how many of those people have multiple accounts.

One thing that is against the rules but is done quite a bit is selling accounts or characters. Whenever people decide they want to make a new character or create a new account they will sell their characters for quite a bit of money. I knew a guy who would level up characters really fast and then sell the accounts for a lot of money. If caught, one will be banned from playing the game again. It's sad that people can't just be honest about what they are doing.

Some people will decide they just don't have time to play anymore and sell their accounts. The population of players may be booming as we get closer to Christmas for one reason or another. It might be that people are buying accounts for their friends as Christmas presents. It seems like the online gaming world is booming right now with players. Hopefully it will continue to boom.
