The American WoW gold players who are up in arms at the WoW gold farming epidemic are not lobbying for more fair work conditions, or attempting to help WoW gold farmers unionize. The plight of the Chinese WoW gold farmer isn't even a consideration. They are worried that it has an adverse effect on the game's economy.

A WoW gold farmer grinding for WoW gold initiates a perpetual cycle. They sell the items to World of Warcraft players for WoW gold to give to their company, who in turn sells their WoW gold back to the World of Warcraft players. People buy the WoW gold from the farming services so they can afford the things they want for their character.

All items, WoW gold, characters, likenesses... everything in World of Warcraft are intellectual property of Blizzard Entertainment. The players pay their subscription fees each month to "rent" their character. Selling items or WoW gold is strictly forbidden by the Terms of Service Blizzard has written. A World of Warcraft player or account proved to be engaged in the sale of items or WoW gold and the account selling and buying WoW gold can be suspended.
