In this case it is. Or rather it is what is being referred to when morningdew mentions P2P. Not my semantics. it is theirs. And it is redundant in relation to the quote you were responding to.

They are simply proposing that those who purchase gold and silver tickets have access to special services and or servers. You are not gonna have to pay to connect and play. For those fo you that don't pay it is all much the same as it is now....

because if enough ppl pay, there wont be room on the servers for non paying players or non paying players will be bumped for paying ones, which would make the game basically p2p. If it will take me twice as long as it does now to log in or I pay, then there is no other word for it, its p2p.
Actually if they implement what they are talking about all that would happen is that GT users would have a special server they could log in to grind on. And ultimatly would have no effect on the regular servers at all. As morningdew themself put it. It would more or less be there to assure gold ticket users that they can use their ticket time. The server would basically be there for quest and grind. No PVP or jobbing.

I dont tip for substandard service in a restraunt, Im certainly not going to pad the pockets of a company that cant update, control it's users, follow it's own ToS, provide GMs, provide security or even simple events. The game itself is OK, nice graphics, half decent game play. The service is so terrible it is a joke to even call it service. Buying something in the item mall is like tipping for self service.
Not gonna argue with you on the service part. Just the part of calling people fools. Ultimatly it is quite possibly foolish to purchase any virtual expendable item. It does not really exist and in the end you really get nothing from it. Just a loss of real money. But it is all our choice for our entertainment. Some like myself still manage to stay legit and find enough fun in the game to make it worth it to me. Though as a paying customer I will keep prodding joymax to action as I can. Since as you said service is the one thing you don't get with this game yet.
The
original thread is here. Everyone take the time to read morningdew's replies. Most the other responses can be ignored as they are people over reacting in much the same way as here.
