This is my biggest problem with Bioware and you jaded players... Call them perks for subscribers, but really these restrictions are punishments for not paying. It's called poor experience by design. What happens when you strangle hold the experience of a game that already has trouble maintaining subscribers... Yea...
And by the way, these restrictions affect everyone, not just the F2Pers. The games economy is hurt, the PVP/End game participation is hurt, Hell I can't even sprint if I'm grouped with a F2Per, I'm getting punished now for wanting a MMO experience.
Remember that phrase - - Poor experience by design.
