Who do I pay to get a game that revolves around what I feel is fun and not what another person thinks is fun. I don't think giving everyone easilly obtainable awesome gear is fun, I think thats lame.
Like I said regardless of skill level, everyone should be able to obtain an item that he/she wants. 3 months is a reasonable amount of time for an experience/skilled/1337 ls's members to show off that gear they worked hard to obtain, but then again someone who is a doctor and dont have much time to play still has to pay for the game regardless of how much time he/she has.
I personally think this trade off is wonderful. It let's everyone regardless of rank,skill, or how much they play, to eventually receive an item before they decide to /slit-wrists and off themselves due to a virtual item.
