And guess what, SE understood where a lot of people were coming from and decided to give us a discount. If people didn't complain about that, you can bet you'd be paying $13/mo to play right now.

Also, keep in mind that Yoshi-P himself said he decided to release the info early specifically to get player feedback on the matter.

I'd honestly be surprised if they didn't change something.
True, it definitly isn't out of the question that they could alter or change it. However, my initial synopsis stands. These forums still only represent a very small portion of the total player population. So if they were going to try to gauge an ACCURATE count of what option of the 4 given that the majority want, they would have to take another player poll. If they did that, it would eat up another 2 months, and frankly why even bother then since that would put us all only a few months away from the 2.0 launch when we will all be dealing with this again. Most of the people on my server that I talk to hardly ever read or check these forums, let alone respond. Also, do we have any idea how all the other nationalities feel about this, or are we all just assuming everyone hates this based on how North America is raging out?

I just think that the entire issue is way more comlicated that people realize, and that, no matter what they chose to do, they can't possibly make everyone happy.
