This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That first point is not true at all. There are entire games built around the paid cosmetics. League of Legends and everyone who follows that model for example. There are more than a few, but you're right on the second point. I mean it's not nice to call people stupid, but I suppose that's not what we're discussing.

My first point is that there are very few companies that actually make money from this, not that there are no companies. Riot games is one that does make money.
