At first I was excited to hear that we would be getting an extra retainer. However, I did note that there was no mention of if that retainer would be free. Now, I find it's what I suspected, we will be able to hire a ninth retainer.

I'm sorry, but this really isn't good enough. This is the only subscription game I can think of where I've had to hire storage space. I've played FTP games and had more free storage than I could use.

If people having up to seven paid retainers won't over-stress the servers, I cannot see any reason for not giving all of us another retainer for free.
