I'm not one to jump into heated discussions, but to answer your question: it's almost perfectly synonomous with insider trading. Clearly anyone with gf items can dump them on the market (e.g. insider knowledge) and the "outsiders" who don't have the knowledge overpay because they pay full market price.Notorious wrote:...and btw capitalize on what I don't know how this would give us a edge in anyway possible, its all information bro.
I'm not questioning the merits of staff discussing upcoming patches on irc, or the veracity of the information itself. I'm just addressing that particular question.
