Hmm, why the IRS? I don't mind paying taxes to my own country, but I don't want a single penny of mine to finance the US's corrupt regime.

From what I gather, they would only be taxing the trade on in game items through out of game sources, ie: buying isk off ebay. So, presumably, the americans would only be able to tax transactions involving americans.
Shouldnt really affect 5punk's EVE playing community much, as most of us are british, the game is based in Iceland and, as far as I know, no one here buys in game stuff off ebay anyway. So the US government can get to fuck

I know, resources I have I could make £40-£50 a day, but I'd prefere to play the game the way the designers intended.Grimmie wrote:ROFL!

Check ebay for isk (NOTE: Buying/selling isk on ebay is against the EULA. It is a bannable offence. Not that that stoped RA mind)

The sad point I see is that I find news of it from the BBC before I hear about it here in the states. Sure says alot about our media! I guess nobody died or was gored to death, so they didn't have anything bloody to whine about on the news, so it didn't get any air-time.
On a side note, I've read articles about colleges researching the online economies, as they believe they're good models of what will happen in the future.
