Conversely, if the information is out there, why not make it even easier to access? Isn't it part of TMS's mission to assist players in finding the game they want?
Go to IRE's front page. You're correct that there's a link to "Credits", but it's subdivided in with "Corporate", implying it's "Credits as in end of movie" and not "Credits as in a type of currency". I'd bet most first-time shoppers miss that.
Well, surely it is mentioned on their extensive page, right? The only hint is on "Features, where a clan is described as a "purchasable, customizable organization", though it's not clear what kind of currency they mean.
Maybe under ? Well, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom, credits are mentioned as something you can buy or sell, next to wool, coal, and other commodities. Hrm. No mention of RL currency there either!
I could go on, but Achaea has obviously spent some time making this information not obvious up front, which is why they want this site to be complicit and help them keep it not obvious. However, I think this runs counter to this site being a useful resource for finding games to play.
Even if I accept your premise (the information is always easy to find), which I don't, the answer would be "What is the objection to an accurate label, then?" Surely, if it is so obvious, the label is harmless, yes?
