Woman Sells her Body for Warcraft Gold
The oldest profession in the world finally caught up with MMO worlds, when a 31 year old Manhattan woman publicly sold her body over Craigslist for 5000 World of Warcraft gold, valued at USD 300-400$ on her server. The post begins, “Hello I need 5000 world of gold for my epic flying mount. In return you can mount me.â€
A moment of silence, please.
Sure, there might be legal implications, serious analysis. I for one am going to bask in stunned and amused silence, pondering the many meanings of the term “escort quest.â€
I’m hosting a JPEG of the Craigslist screenshots above. It’s *not safe for work* due to some graphic sexuality in the text. It shows her original post, as well as her post-mounting post. Someone was also kind enough to insert goofy gold coin pictures. Thanks, someone. You’ve made a difference.

Truly a dramatic story.
The thing that makes me wonder about this is her choice of photo. I mean, wouldn’t someone disposed to this sort of offer put up a different sort of photo, if you know what I mean…
I couldn’t help but think that a vengeful ex-boyfriend or mean-spirited brother put up a pic of a poor suspecting woman standing in her backyard…
Anyway, enough either way to make my head hurt ;-/
My WoW-drama-spidey-sense is tingling.
