    Well that's all the more reason to speak against it isn't it? Or at least to find a compromise between that could strengthen both the consumer and seller instead of stubbornly pursuing the most blatantly rapacious route which could have long term detrimental effects?

    Personally, my solution is looking for that BOGO (Buy One Get One) deal. SE as well as other companies make other games right? Like lets say Blizzard decides to release one of the best looking cash shop only mounts ever while the others available to subscribers look like absolute reskinned garbage (*cough*). Not only that but promoting the hell out of it in my face while im paying them $15 a month to play the game and all the content updates that come with it. Still want that mount? Well just look for that BOGO deal where if you buy one mount you get a game free. Its how I got Heart of the Swarm. Theyre not that hard to find, just gotta know where to look.

    In a way, they end up losing money. Same goes for the retainer issues. Only way ill pay for extra space is when im allowed to mail items to alts. So long as they continue to repeat that sad excuse about "server space issues" and "RMT" they not only dont get a dime from me with their paid retainers, they actually lose some sub $$ I would otherwise be paying for.

    Matter of fact, someone just made a great point about the Odin mount... thinking ill buy it one of these days. Maybe around November 10th ...
