Do you honestly still think Nexon is the greedy company stealing money from players?

As Dusk has stated before, it's an MMO company. Their entire mindset is to get as many players hooked and addicted as possible. That's how every single MMO out there makes money. I don't think it matters whether Nexon makes money by taking stuff that is literally required to play a certain class, or if Blizzard makes a unique horse for people to ride on that costs 25 dollars. I know friends that plays WoW, and they are pretty damn hooked.

Hell, my teachers plays this game, ffs. If they're making money, then they're making money. How they're making it is irrelevant.

That was my entire point to begin with. Too many people have the mind that nexon is corrupt and evil and shouldn't be making money or shouldn't be making money on items that provide an advantage and all this other pie-in-the-sky idealistic bullshit. What's worse? Someone that can only make money through extraneous items and does so effectively, or someone who slaps another texture on an existing model and charges you $25 for it on top of a subscription fee? I don't even want to hear about what company does what. It's the same for all games. Nexon America's idea of microtransactions is VERY common among MMOs. I don't care if they're permanent in Korea. That's not the way it is with every other game either. I don't want to hear that Nexon is an uncaring coprorate entity. That's every company, whether they make it obvious or not. I don't want to hear about customer support. Nobody truly pays for customer support. You pay to keep the employees paid and the servers running. How those employees make their paycheck varies wildly from region to region, company to company, game to game.

What we are talking about HERE, in THIS thread, is who is being sneakier about getting more money from you. If you still say it's Nexon, you are a tool. Last time I checked, Nexon didn't sell you pointless palette swaps for $25 or anything.
