Cash shop confirmed

Then simply don't buy anything at the cash shop, that's all there's to it. That way you don't have to pay for their mistake .

I fully intend on it, the problems will arise when (not if, when) they start adding items that you're forced to purchase in order to fully "experience" the game. And make no mistake it will happen, because SE will make money off the cash shop and they will want to make more.

At that point in time, that is when I will stop supporting this game. If they are truly listening to feedback, then they would do well to tread lightly on this cash shop in a p2p format.

Every other game and developer that has a cash shop eventually moves into that territory. I can't see how SE wouldn't when their whole approach to ARR has to to emulate other MMOs.

Still, I hope your optimism is well placed.

there are plenty of cash shops that don't and never will do this so it is a *if* not when.

WoW doesn't have items in the cash shop that impact gameplay? Well, WoW players will be surprised to hear that those were just figments of their imagination!

Yeah those runes, rune pages, and the ability to expand my hero selection pool faster than a customer who doesn't sink real $$$ into the cash shop every month definitely don't impact the gameplay of League of Legends, a MOBA that has a pre-game metagame based on the ability to ban, pick and counterpick heroes.
