I'm sorry? Why do I give you more money?...

It boggles how much people expect from this game, and how much venom is directed at the Gem Shop. I have no issue with the Gem Shop, and feel I probably should be buying stuff from it more often. I actually like sales, and will buy something while one is on. The only problem I have with the Gem Shop is that there isn’t more to buy.

But in response to the title question: I think no sub fee is a great reason to give Anet more money. How many other games give you all content, with updates, for the box price?

Kiting?

I do not see a problem with kiting or circle strafing as a legitimate tactic for certain glassy builds. If your character is mobile enough, and can do ranged damage, then why not? Being able to lay down damage while avoiding it seems pretty skillful to me, it’s just a different paradigm than the more visceral melee approach. As long as there is an element of risk in using that style, and a spectrum of effectiveness based on skill, I think a kiting strategy adds depth to combat.
