Wake up and smell real life, it isn't sunshine and puppies. What you're proposing has been tried before many times and it has always failed miserably. It's called a perfect utopian communism.
I never said people shouldn't work for their money. NEVER. However, not everyone has the same opportunities as others. Not everyone CAN work and afford to throw money at this game. Not everyone is fucking rich. My problem is that the gap between people who can and can't throw money at this game is so huge that you are definetly going to be quite behind for a long time without paying.
I just think that it's wrong. This game is pay-to-win at this point, and it's ridiculous. It's the reason I quit lesser MMOs. Regardless of my circumstance, knowing that there are people that are NEVER going to be even up to my calibur hurts to think about.
I consider myself average-high funding. There are people whose environment and possible opportunities make bills and food the sole focus of income. The fact that people in that situation won't be up to snuff for a long time sickens me.
And honestly, saying that I don't want people to work for their money isn't even close to the truth. I know there will always be lazy fucks. However, when a hardworking individual will never get to where a privileged pineapple like me just because he can't afford to put a few thousand dollars into this, it's a sad circumstance.
I'm not asking to close the gap entirely. Those of us who support Nexon financially should have some benefits. But I'd like to see those who can't do so be somewhat on par with us.
