Aye, consumers should always keep companies to their promises or at the very least be very critical when they break them, even if it was the right call.
Why do I think these kind of promises have to be kept and that those that break them should recieve critic for doing so? Because of the boiling frog, it also doesn't do wonders for their credibility when caught.
Now, I don't remember the promise in question, but I'll take others' word for it since it doesn't seem like an unlikely thing to promise.

Didn't SOE also promise to not use the lattice system again?

I guess people only care about them going back on a decision when it's a decision they approved of.

I don't care if developers makes changes to the gameplay if that is what is needed, even if it ends up breaking a promise.
Monetization is where I personally start drawing the line. Might be hypocritical in some people's eyes.
I do understand and even agree, to some degree, that when enough time has passed then it might actually be good for gameplay balance to allow players to purchase weapon attachments.

I don't remember them promising not to use the lattice. They flat out were refusing to use the lattice when it was suggested originally. They came around to see the light eventually though...

What's the difference between saying "we won't let you buy attachments with real money" and "we won't use lattice"?

That's my recollection as well, didn't want to use it because they were dead set on hexes.

They're deadset against Sancs as well but I haven't seen a proposal that deals with cont locking (and the potential for a faction to get zerobased) without 'em.
We won't always need sanctuaries but when we do, it's because the only other option is a login queue.

In case you haven't noticed, SOE already thinks they solved the Sanctuary problem by having us login to the Deployment screen.
