In before thread nuke. $14.95 of my money goes toward another MMO come Sept 1 even though I quit my main a while back.

The fact they nuked the original thread that asked for players to list how much SE would lose if/when they quit shows clearly that they are not likely to respond to the outcry or make any changes. The "forthcoming" update will be enough enticement for people to say screw it and pay up regardless of their objections, and whether or not it's released in August or September. I find it highly suspicious that this change in payment methods comes almost exactly when the update is due to be released, and the more I thought about it, believed that these changes were in the works for a very long time............
