I have come to the realization some time ago that this game runs on a month-to-month basis. These guys do not make long term strategic plans since they do not feel confident themselves that those plans will ever mature. Where that leaves players is with an insecure a game company that operates under the assumption that you will get disgusted and leave within the month. What then end up doing is tactical marketing which is nothing more than to find devious ways to squeeze as much as they can out of everyone that hasn't come to this conclusion before they do and leave.

The devil is in the details
