    Looolz he wrote sum letters like i do and dats good.About those Item Shops,they are main reason why everything else is free...you spend all your money in those shops,and they just drain,and drain your money slowly till you stay withouta bread.

    Yeah and as it is known some F2P MMOs with CSs (Cash Shops) make more money than P2P ones.. It's all about the money.

    They're gaming companies, they need to pay their employees, the power bills and the extra costs for maintaining the servers.. They have to get some profit somewhere.

    its a company behind them, do you think creating a game, and giving updates to it is free, i guess some f2p games have millions in it, so i think they may ask some money somehow, if the shop is the best option to make some ppl pay, then let them. companies are pure to make money..

    IMO i think the only sensible thing would be to leave refining/materials out of the cash shop for a fair community.

    But, i agree with you all that stuff is easily overcome, Exp - program a bot, Drop Rate - Also use that bot, for items - new accounts =P
    implying that programming a bot is easy w/ all these defense programs that come w/ almost any game?
    time it would take to make a bot thats functional is too long, so its pretty much better to just get that exp boost

    In games where they have that though, they're rare Materials that have an increadibly low success rate to find; Which is troubling because someone who spends 100 hours to acquire 200 of those Minerals to make that super sword, allows someone to spend 2$ to make that super sword in the time elapsed for the money to transfer over.

    Costumes without stats are purely visuals and make you feel different from everyone else.
    Restat/reskills just give you another chance over; I think games should make these tradable anyway.
    +Inventory and Warehouse/Storage space just lets you do less running back and forth.
    +EXP/Drop gives you better chance to find X, which doesn't give you the items; You still have to work for them.
