Insane MMORPG Rig Lets You Farm For Gold with Six Computers at Once

You're really into MMORPGs when you spend hours repeating the same tasks over and over again to acquire gold. You're way, way too into MMORPGs when you create a custom six-computer setup to do it that much faster.

Zhek Kromtor's "Frankenstein" setup lets him play several EVE Online accounts at the same time so he can farm for gold and minerals more efficiently. Just look at those janky six-way keyboards and mice that let him control everything at once!

You see, he was temporarily banned for running multiple accounts on one computer at the same time. It's against the rules! But doing this, apparently, is not. Probably because they never thought anyone would be crazy enough to do it. But never underestimate the desire of an addict to get that sweet, sweet gold.

Clearly a win for gold farmers and a lose for anyone trying to maintain that gamers have some dignity left.

Talk about nerdy haha, kinda overkill though imo.

Rondariel said...

Wat? Doesn't eve let you buy gold anyways? Ahaha still awesome.

Why buy gold when you can farm it yourself then sell it and make the money yourself. If you don't make enough though, you're stuck paying a bunch of subscriptions.

I once saw a TV report about gold farmers in China and the conditions under which they work, what they get paid and all. I think it's also on Youtube. Scary shit, it's a game totally out of control.
