They tried something like this before, where the companies were ordered to change their software so people from China would start getting less exp, no drops, etc etc the longer they played. EVERY mmorpg on the planet was supposed to imbend this special programming into their game. It went nowhere. This basically sounds like the same thing, asking every mmorpg creator to modify their game for one country to add limits the government of that one country wants that would reduce the amount of people playing. Yeah right, they will get right on that, just as soon as Duke Nukem Forever is released. Sigh, again?
