There are a lot of skills you can use in other online businesses that you can take from this:
1) watching auctions. Find something else to buy/sell besides WoW gold. There are tons of other online opportunities out there outside of the WoW universe that can make just as much money, you just need to find it. If you have some Chinese contacts, you might be able to get in touch with some wholesalers/dropshippers (if you want to go that route).
2) answering emails/customer support. Another good skill to have.
You could also reword your resume to say that you ran an online business and you have experience with customer support and sales. I think many business owners would be impressed that you were able to make a living on it, even if it is WoW gold.
I expected something more interesting given the title. I do see what you did there, sir, and it was mildly amusing, but not nearly as epic as the title suggests. Not really trolling reddit so much as exacerbating an existing condition; or so it seems to this one.
Welcome to my club. Like others are saying, use the time to develop.
After a lengthy period of me asking about what my duties were and if anything was written down and what various policies were, a senior coworker simply said "Read. Buy some books and read." I spend about one hour of the day on getting real work done, another hour or two on moving things through the idiocracy, and the rest of the day is spent on Pylons documentation. :D
"I'm not the bad guy; see? See? This donation proves it."
"I'm just like the Diaspora devs. I'm a hip young hacker too! I'm just like them! I'm a good guy too."
"Daww, aren't they the cutest things? Making either what I already found wouldn't work, or what did work but what I've already done better."
It is cool that he's donated to the project. That said, his responses in the interview just come across as posturing, self-promoting, and some light FUD apropos Diaspora. Not terribly convinced here.
