Seems they are taking out the real money auction house. I think it was a crazy stupid to put it in the first place. Blizz says people are actually using it not to have to go kill and just buying stuff. I mean who would imagine people wouldn't want to go farm for items, when lots of people are selling them for just a couple of dollars. I am sadly to cheap to buy stuff online that I can't have IRL. Guess its back to farming for me.
At first glance, I'm like "why would people spend real money on this stuff?!" Then I realize that I've bought my fair share of stuff to increase game play in Candy Crush and other games, and I stop judging.
