No, that is a good word for it. Most games that change from full sub to freemium options do so as a desperate grab for more money because they are bleeding subscriptions, or as an uninformed moneygrab which results in the same sub bleeding they likely wish to avoid.

I still cannot think of a single sub-based MMORPG that is not now worse off after adding freemium options to the extent that legalized RMT would.

Can you?
