        Why don't they just have Open interviews rather then be so selective, by being so specific with the criterion, they are only getting a biased Documentary.
        "how broken everything about ToAU is."
        "Do you have Haruhi in your daily anime diet?"
        "ok... I've quit 5 times... and failed each time miserably... they need a patch for FFXI like those nicotine ones...."
        "Finally Quit this game"

          Yet, they aren't looking for the average FFXI player? Go figure...

            Dan B. started playing the computer game World of Warcraft three years ago. He owned a business, had a soon-to-be fiance, a nice car and a nice home. Three years later Dan was bankrupt, single and destitute, living in his cousin’s basement playing his game on a computer that rested on an empty beer keg. His daily routine consisted of ordering pizza and two bottles of soda, eating it all and then urinating into the soda bottles, so as to never leave his computer game. He lives in a computer game addiction rehab center now, and is following Alchoholics Anonymous’ Twelve Step Program to cure his game addiction.
            Luo G. is a 28-year-old college graduate who borrowed $25,000 from his father to start an Internet café on the outskirts of Chongqing in central China. After a year of lukewarm sales, Gang transformed the café into a gold farm. He hired twenty-three workers, paying them $75 monthly to play MMORPGs twelve to eighteen hours a day. Any items or gold that they acquire in the game get auctioned by Gang on eBay, and once a character reaches a high level, the character himself is pawned off to the highest bidder. There are an estimated 100,000 gold farmers in China, working in underground factories filled with computers and cots, where they live and work.

                That is just insane, one way to exploit a poorer nation to make money for an individual, i mean $75 a month thats 597.172 CNY which would be the equivilent of earning $250 a month in the US.

                Rant over..

                On the subject of the documentary, I can be classed as a non average layer as I have to juggle a 9-5 job, playign the evenings and being called out to fires during the game, which is why levelling progress for me is slow.

                  Jarre, a lot of gilfarm companies also pay for their employees room and board, which isn't really that bad a deal in china. A job playing games, housing, and food.
