Honestly, I don't think you have more to say on this than anyone else. We've all gone through the same or similar experiences on MS. What do you do when another of your friends quits in five months? You mourn, then move on. Most of the friends I had that quit, quit because of life, not the game. Some left in a fit of rage, some left in sincere fashion, others without a word of notice. None left because of the changes to the game. That would be flip. The ones who didn't quit because of life, quit because the game got boring for them. Those people just moved on to other games. (WoW being the popular choice.)
This question is directed to anyone who's willing to answer:
What's your reason for continuing to play?

I play so I have something to do in my spare time.[/SIZE]
From another thread on another forum. It says what I want to say, and what I have to say has been said before...
Edit- I'm not saying nobody's ever quit because of the changes to MS, but I hadn't met anyone who did. I do share the same feelings where I wish things were as simplistic as they used to be, but I guess I just put up with the changes.

I loved the idea that our level cap was damn near unobtainable and Zakum was terrifying, how far you got to depended on perseverance and not virtual pixels/x2 cards purchased and leech bought. Z4 will be my favorite map, always. It's hard to state the case without sounding repetitive, reveling in the nostalgia we feel nowadays when playing but MS was at it's best a few years back. To be honest the only reason I still played the last year was out of habit, and yeah I managed to make some amazing friends along the way. Rather than helping Icarus in Kerning build a hang glider to escape from his daily grind, people seemed focused on leveling fast as possible, owning the best gear and treating people like garbage to achieve said goals although that's always been occurring.)
