Um, I *did* preorder a Premium pack. Not because I know what's in it, but because I've been playing EQ2 for years and years with no breaks (except for the Dreaded DDoS o'Doom). I know good and well that I am gonna keep playing it (my family calls it EverCrack for a reason). YMMV.
That's certainly your perogative, Sig. We just differ in our approach. I like to know what I'm buying these days since so much out there doesn't deliver on the promise. Witness the latest fiasco with ATT's "unlimited" data plan. I'm glad you have the faith to plunk down your money; I'll choose to wait and see what's actually being delivered before I decide. The 'pay to win' approach for stuff that should be in the game (and used to drop) has had a wearing effect on me.
