Apparently, subscription gaming is not all that unusual. AH is the only game that I play, so don't know anything about the other subscription services, but found this interesting:

We’re off Shanes rails at this point. But I agree. I think some get bit by smoke and mirrors of marketing. Ya can’t stop so many from a fad of believing that they don’t spend as much, or more, to play other games.
Our points made here, other games may have better graphics for the same money, but its at a trade off of intensive fun. IMO, 200-300 in one arena is more fun than small populated servers.
Before AW I played those type of games. I always got that sense of confined. Then I saw AW larger MP arena and it was like the holy grail, and has remained so. AW graphics were aged too, most put that aside for large MP arenas. So to a lot of us old dogs, we’v been down this road before.
Some play 2-4 games, are dumping money and need this one to be free. Its a pattern, those who don’t mind $15 this is the only game they play. Should this be free because ya play many games with investments? No. Ya don’t pay for the game, ya pay for a big arena and the maintenance and equipment to do so.
Will others discover these facts? Evidently not.
Paid for fluffy graphics with less free fun
Paid more fun with free less fluffy graphics
No game seems to have both.
Pick your poison. Nothing is free.
Logic seems to be a hard point to accept for some.
As for main subject, what he states is true. There are dweebs in every game, ruining it. Maybe pretty planes has less, its also boring. Another trade off.
Don’t mean to offend, but repeatedly complaining about in open air does just as harm as the act behind closed doors.it puts negative in everyones face, including visitors who are deciding to play, or not. Ya just told them not to. We all know all the negatives, we don’t have to be reminded every 4-7 days. And its not just shane. We have a small group of broken records. They make it look worse than it actually is. Its bad PR.
Numbers is our current problem, being over shadowed by other graphics. So instead of complaining what low numbers cause I put my energy into promoting. That is the core problem. This other stuff are symptoms and smaller beans.
