Yes it is.

It's alot.

Besides the article's date being March 19th 2013, it's also full of grammar and lexical errors.

That's a full 400K more than I ever had.

What is the point of saving up all that gold if you aren't going to spend it?

If you don't game the AH, it's more than a person is ever likely to see.

Exactly.

Spend it on something worthwhile and not just random things..

95% sure you can create a ticket to sort these things out; Especially if it involves real money.

I saved gold from my daily log-ins for a couple of months (while I let my sub run out for now) and we only have 10k in our Alliance guild bank.

Losing 426k would annoy me, but kids are kids.

Idd, i was referring to the second quote further down the page - But regardless, you can get in-game money back too i'm sure.

The site the op linked got the amount the kid spent wrong I think here's a link to the kotaku article about it:

That sounds a lot worse indeed. 426k is a very tiny amount for someone who has "accumulated gold for 8 years", 4.7 million sounds more plausible. Especially considering he said he would probably give up on WoW for a while. I wouldn't give up on WoW after losing 426k, but losing 4.7m? Damn.

426k "8year life savings" lol

426k is nothing...
You can do that in a month or so with some effort.

Poor guy. The age of 6 is when most kids move on from being totally cute to sometimes extremely obnoxious and annoying. Wonder how the dad feels. Will he resent the kid? It's just a game I know, but I wouldn't put it past a guy to break up with the love of his life if he/she did something like this. Does he think "asshole!" whenever he looks at his kid? ><
