If that opening paragraph doesn't make sense and seems purely bizarre that's because the situation is eccentric. Polygon explains that due to the meltdown of Venezuela's economy, inflation has skyrocketed, food is now tough to get a grasp of, and fundamental survival has become exceedingly hard for some people in the country. Some individuals have resorted to a unorthodox way of making money, like farming dragons in Runescape.
There were guides supporting Venezuelans farming for gold in Runescape by killing dragons and then selling the gold in a markup for real money. This little grey market tactic is often referred to as gold farming. It's been around for ages and usually large Chinese mafioso type companies have experienced the gold farming market cornered.
Well, regulars out of Runescape who aren't out of Venezuela took umbrage with the gold farmers in the South American nation and above on the sub-Reddit to get Jagex's match, a manual was created on the best way to aim and kill Venezuelan players as a form of punishment.
The principal difficulty being, that just targeting a Venezuelan participant does not mean that you're targeting a gold farmer.
According to Polygon, Venezuelans earn about $2 through $3 a day farming and selling gold at Runescape. It is not a whole lot but it helps them make more than that which they are currently making working as a full-time professional on account of the collapse of the economy. Reports from the New York Times suggests that minimum wage implies that individuals are just making $5 per month.
