I've wondered how forum gold works. I know you can buy it for $$ from the guy and then trade it to players for items, and then players can trade the forum gold for other items. It still doesn't fit, though. Can you cash the forum gold in for $$ again? In other words, is there intrinsic value? If that's not the case (but surely it is?) then forum gold seems like something that's traded around for "goods" but has no actual value itself. Kind of like USD?
