In fact, I think my "addiction" has finally been broken due to my uncompromising belief that I should not be paying 15 bucks a month for the privilege to pay more for items I find essential(the so called fluff of costmetic).
Costmetic(yes I know I am spelling it wrong, its on purpose) items are a tax on the players that find such things fun. The jock gamers that care only about hard numbers and raiding get a free pass because the fluff loving players pay a tax for the kind of content they like. They take our tax, feed it into the servers, and the free loading people reap the rewards.
I want to know why its so damn acceptable to tax one style of game play and not the other.
