Abstract:

Gold farming refers to the illicit practice of gathering and selling virtual goods in online games for real money. Although around one million gold farmers engage in gold farming related activities, to date a systematic study of identifying gold farmers has not been done. Here data is used from the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMOG) EverQuest II to identify gold farmers. This is posed as a binary classification problem and a set of features is identified for classification purposes. Given the cost associated with investigating gold farmers, criteria are also given for evaluating gold farming detection techniques, and suggestions provided for future testing and evaluation techniques.
