1. Protesting that their free status is not giving them equal perks to those players who are paying subs to the game (and have met good success in bending repair costs and trial mechs sofar)
2. Pickup-game players who do not want to invest in the community, nor want to join a community but are seeking a COD-lite experience of lone-wolf quick matches, whereby every mech can be a 1 man army. (and are protesting they are being limited by being a 1-man hero by ECW, team chat, lag, skilled players
3. Players not interested in communication or skill, and want a hawken-lite DPS fest, whereby who can get the best headshots fastest, wins the match.
A few communities have had this problem, including alot of media companies (newspapers) who have had their brand wrecked by this entitlement problem.
What would players think of erecting a paywall around the forums ? Why should PGI admins and the players who are actually winning (and enjoying the game in their own clan drops and tournaments through match-coordinated drops) be distracted by non-content generating trolls ?
Thoughts ?

Don't believe me ? Look at the top 20 threads and each of them were started by a non-active and/or non-purchased player.
