I wish people would stop acting like this game has a shelf life.

P.O. will only get better and will be around for a long time. There are limitless possibilities with a MMO like this one and just for the record… there will come a day when most of you (who came in during or just after the beta) will one day rethink the days when P.O.'s in-your-face, pedal-to-the-metal simplicity was its allure and straight forwardness was its catch… oh, those were the good ole days, but like everything else that evolves and grows… the degree of difficulty grows with it. Mark my words… P.O. is here to stay! Just make sure the learning curve doesn't turn into a cliff.

Oh! And by the way… a lifetime membership isn't a bad idea.
