Hell if there was a I win button that instant kill anyone within 100 meters radios they would even be happier if they where the only one allowed to have it. Way do you think there are so many players that cheat as soon as they think they wont get caught? For the same reason they just love to pay real money for boosters and what not that will give them an edge in the game. IMO SOE though that if you cant beat them join them, witch is a really bad idea.
PS: If you add up what you pay in F2P games you will find that you pay allot more then $15 a month. So its not because $15 is allot of money.

A) cash shops are so successful because a lot of players either want bling bling for their avatars, or would rather skip the grind. Nothing "not fair" about that.
B) Any game that sold an ability to kill all players within 100 meters, would fail rapidly. The balance of a F2P game is to sell things that paying players want, but won't drive away the free players (note: free players are necessary in a F2P games to make the game feel populated)
C) Nope, don't generally spend more than $15 a month in a F2P game unless I
really like the game, and then I am just basically supporting the devs more than anything.
D) If you don't like it, find a different game.
