If you're opposed to using it, just keep doing it the way you were before.
Usually I rather dislike your opinions, this one however I completely approve. I actually LIKE what they have done here, and HQ viewing is still part of 1.20, so its not like we will have to wait until March or something like that.

If I were to have 1 critique, I would have put the surcharge on purchases above a certain threshold in order to help players acquiring low level gear, meanwhile taxing those who make millions of gil before the rewards were balanced. This would be a permanent way to keep those gillionaires paying back into the system.

I'm willing to guess those stating "will not pay now" were already not planning to pay, and creating excuses to justify themselves.

Remember, this is a fundamental patch fixing underlying systems. Once they are in, they can add features like HQ / Materia search without too much trouble.
