    Read about it a couple days ago, and laughed.

    Then I signed up for a year's worth, wait what?

    Suddenly, prostitution became a whole lot more lucrative.

    I thought "Surely there isn't anyone<i> that</i> desperate for female interaction is there?". Oh how foolish of me.
    Humorously, my female showed interest in being payed to play video games with a bunch of unwashed man-children. I'm not quite sure how I feel about that.

    If you paid me to play games with a girl or a guy, I'd happily oblige. It's money.

    Well, you're not being paid to play. You're paid to chat (and flirt accordingly to gain ratings) and eventually end up with a bit of gaming. You'd still do it?

    I'd flirt with Tekdude if you paid me enough.

    Hurray, a chat up line for geeks.

    Why didn't I think of that?

    It's hardly prostitution, it's the exact same premise as a chat up line, except with a game fetish thrown in.

    I mean.. I have no interest in any of this ######e.. just like that 'text XXX to flirt with girls in your area' adds that's on tv all the time.

    but what I also don't get is.. why the hating? If people want to pay for something.. that's their prerogative.. they earn their cash, they should get to spend it on whatever floats their boat... there's a lot worse they could be spending their cash on.

    Indeed. That'd be probably the best argument for it's failure.

    Silly Internet, you don't charge people for what they expect to get for free. It's contrary to all common sense.

    Well, chloroform is pretty cheap these days.

    But, according to general polls, we're actually rather average mostly young people with a job and a family. Creepy.

    Well of course they can't. Your internet date beating you in halo is an instant boner-kill.
