    I never suggested anyone was making me buy from the cash shop... Here's the thing though; People do buy from the cash shop.

    Why should SE care if I quit, for example. I'm only paying the standard subscription fee. Who cares though, they can just paint the Magitek mount purple, slap it on the cash shop, and the remaining people who do purchase from the cash shop have covered the loss of my subscription fee, and then some.

    Though, with something like this games piss-poor inventory and glamour system... I kinda do need to pay for an extra retainer at this point... We can ignore that though, the issue with cash shops is that some people do not like the idea of being milked for profit in that way. Sure, we can not purchase from it, but someone who is fine with being milked will. Who does SE care more about retaining as a subscriber? The player paying the standard subscription fee, or the players throwing cash at them for painting mounts different colours? It's a no brainer, really.

    Honestly, I begrudgingly tolerated the cash shop, but when they throw something like Diadem out... Well, then I start to have concerns over the future of this game... Like they care about my opinion though, they're getting less money out of me than someone who wants a green ADS ball, or whatever they release to the cash shop next...
