I saw this posted over on MMORPG.com, so I decided to post it ad verbatim here, I did however, have to edit some of the poll questions, due to the fact they were over 100 characters, and OnRPG only allows each question to be a maximum of 100 characters:
What is your preferred method of payment?
I am torn between a Subscription Only ($15/month-- no box cost as that is a rip-off), Buy to Play (Guild Wars style), and F2P like League of Legends where you can earn EVERYTHING in game OR get it faster by buying it. Yet no player is at an advantage for spending money, as it's entirely possible to earn it in game without spending a penny.
Free to Play with ability to unlock everything for free or unlock characters/dungeons with money (faster) is great, and the best IMO.
Buy to Play would be next, as this is like any other game, FPS, RTS, etc.
The ONLY reason I am including Subscription Only ($15/month) is because....well....F2P brings a lot of kiddies, trolls, and completely morons. Subscriptions, unfortunately, bar out the vomit and help to provide a more mature (adult) community. It may still be full of immature people, but little kids and teenagers are a completely different story, and (like in LoL's case) it can ruin your own gameplay experience due to their inability to have fully developed cognitive skills. (Kids dying or quitting in LoL can ruin the game for 9 other players).
