Let me post a quote from another thread that sums up how silly people complaining are:

This game appeals to the lowest common denominator. A vocal minority of players upset about this decision will pale in comparison to the droves who will eat this **** up from the palm of SE's hand along with those who will be upset about it but remained subbed.
tl;dr There's a majority of players that are for a cash shop that greatly outweigh the opinions of those who are complaining. SE will listen to the former, not the latter.
