"if you do this I won't play" is not an opinion, it is a fact in most of the posts here...
...
1)A discussion without bias *is* a discussion.
...
2)If there is no roleplay then it is just a soullesss game.
3)Tiered pricing in itself affects very little if they keep the core principles they have dictated so far."
1) A discussion of something in where there is no solid right or wrong answer is nothing with out bias. There is no way to objectively discuss tiered pricing since people have had experiences with it one way or another. It is not a figment that has not yet come to exist, thus people are biased one way or another about it based on experiences and previous discussions.
2) I agree 100%.
3) I disagree wholeheartedly. Tiered pricing is a form of price discrimination which very much changes the air of the game. It can separate friends who wish to play together but aren't willing to pay the same amounts, it divides up the community into real-life financial classes, and so forth.
Also, saying "I won't play it if they have tiered pricing" is indeed an opinion. It is the ultimate way of stating "I utterly hate tiered pricing"
And finally, I wouldn't go saying that people shouldn't express a certain opinion (or that it isn't helpful)... in a thread that was started as a poll containing that opinion as an option. By the very topic itself it is an integral part of the discussion.
