Cash shop confirmed

Let's see. It's optional. It's vanity. And, to top it all off, it's in every single MMO (subscription based included) on the planet. If your opinion was the majority, this system wouldn't exist.

If more people felt like you, the only way to solve this issue, is to simply not buy anything out of the cash shop. If it wasn't popular, they wouldn't have the bright idea to put it in. Therefore, your crying and moaning about it essentially accomplishes nothing.

Put your money where your mouth is, and things change. Fin.

I don't actually agree with you.
If anyone that doesn't agree simply don't buy things, they'd still put things up for sale because they'd be getting more money than if they'd put them in-game.

The developers want feedback, and that's what everyone should be giving them - especially when you have a problem. Otherwise, how'd they know if people get unhappy?

So let's just discuss this the best we can, throwing arguments back and forth

With that logic, Call of Duty must be an amazing game, and Justin Beiber must be an amazing musician. Popularity does not equate to quality. Yes, the vast majority of MMOs has found that they can make good money from things like cash shops, and I don't blame them. The problem starts when games that are supposedly sub only (meaning you access ALL content just by paying your sub) start locking you out of content unless you're willing to pay extra. The whole idea behind a sub is that it's an ongoing service and they keep making content for you. Not for them to use that money to make 90% content for you, 10% content for people who will pay extra.
