Hopefully your last comment is sarcastic.

Obviously, that would never be the case, ever, Unless I can pay them in in-game gold ;).

I don't see how that would work, Joymax says that all items in game are THEIR property. I'd love to see the government try to tax a Korean company.

No no, they want to tax 3rd party companies or induviduals who are also making money off MMORPG's. This means, powerleveling companies, gold sellers.

So this is actually a GOOD thing, because it will make the cost of gold/item or powerleveling more expensive, so less people will buy it.... then those retarded companies get bankrupt and lot's of goldbots etc.. are gone :D

I hope that's true, I would love to see gold buying stop, prices of equipment raise as the price of gold gets low.
