How is it not an artificial barrier? It is something in game that you have to spam to gain access to something that is obtainable, just an artificial barrier in your way to access it.... That's why SE moved away from Reputation because it had no special point beyond to put barriers from people with certain items to waste our time to gain more money. CoP and beyond didn't have fame requirements. Am I the only one who noticed this?
