Re: What does "Free" Mean?
I state my reasons for why I think it is not free. You are free to disagree.
Why? I guess because I do have a principle about calling something free. Others here are just as principled about say, licenses, and go on about that even if many of the worst offenders have players that really like the game.
Or about those that may abuse voting rules.
I guess we all pick our windmills.
Now, about all other "commercial" games, I have come to appreciate the straightforward approach of most of the MMOGs. You buy the box, you pay a set subscription. Predictability and transparency. Those are the watchwords in most economic analyses.
