It is not fair.

Everybody should have the same opportunities to get cool stuff in the Game.
And the only way to do this (in a fair way), is through playing the game.

Another reason is, that i don't like it when a virtual world, where i want to distract myself from the real world,
is connected to the real world through a cash shop.
Luckily there is no inGame-Access to the store... yet!
I don't have a fair chance to get Alex Savage gear because I can't invest the amounts of time required for raiding on that level.
I don't have a fair chance to get high cost glam like the Tavnarian (or however it's spelled) because I can't invest the amounts of time required to get millions of gil by crafting/gathering.
I don't have a fair chance to get some of the dyes because I can't invest the time to level my retainer to the point where it can get them.

I do on the other hand have access to money, because the reason I lack time is mainly because I work.

You see what I am getting at?
