As long as the game is still subscription free, how does this make any difference?

The hope is that the extra effort required to keep an active forum account will deter trolls from posting on the forum.

I don't think this will work.

Maybe it's designed to prevent trolls, maybe it's not, but I would hope that Square is not trying to hide criticisms of the game. They need to listen to the player bases that were unhappy with this game; but there are plenty of people, like me, who have trudged along in the game while being simultaneously unhappy; others are clouded with delusions about how this game is great as is.

I'm not sure what the right path here is, but I personally don't think trolling is too bad on the forums as it is. I mostly see valid criticisms.

It will when then game is no longer F2P to some extent but I think it's more about getting feedback from people who play the game instead of the people who haven't played the current content .

Someone needs to complain about how they're taking out of the old Blizzard book by only allowing active accounts to post on their forums.

Come on!

Someone must come out with it!!

I have to agree, I know some will just complain because this feature or that feature from this or that game isn't there. But I think that will happen with people still playing too. And I'm sure some people have very valid reasons for quitting, but if they have no voice, then what are the chances of that player returning.
