Pay for your inventory.

You grossly assumed my financial situation and you are exaggerating with your slippery slope paranoia.

Umm....lol.

I said if you have enough money to buy into what SE is doing at the moment, more power to you. I didn't exactly label you with a specific amount of wealth...I simply said you have enough money to have the willingness and ability to pay for what content SE is wanting to gate behind payment. This much can be inferred, seeing as you admitted that you're okay with things so far. So again, no assumptions . You admitted yourself that you have enough money to currently view what SE has chosen to gate behind payment as worth your money and capable of being paid for by your money.

Also, it's not paranoia. We can see the trend developing already. I can spell it out for you if you like:

First we had fantasia and subscription to extra retainers.

Then we had a cash shop open up which included a mount and some old event items.

Then we had premium Eternal Bond options added.

Then we had dyes added, which have been 100% in game up until that point.

Now we've got more retainers (the most functional of any cash shop feature) added when we need the storage space most.

Is it paranoia to notice a clearly developing trend? Because if so, I guess everyone would be paranoid for noticing any consistency in anything.

You cleaned it to sound more suggestive of them being able to up near the end but if you read most of it out loud to yourself it can sound pretty assuming of the person being able to just toss cash around vs you not being able to spurge money in the same sense, to the one reading it and maybe even a little sarcastic which is what the person was commenting on not your ending remark with SE, anyways elaborated for you.

My response to SDaemon should clarify for you as well.

This will be my second and last reply to you as I can already tell this can start to derail any moment now.

You sounded as if you assumed he can spend money unlike yourself because he said he was fine with this and still all nahhh about it. He could be just fine with it because it doesn't affect him period, he may not hoard or glamour as much as others here. Doesn't mean he does or doesn't spend money for a retainer, I personally wouldn't know but the way you worded it could be taken in more than the context that you, yourself and another gentleman here read it.
