Thank you for saying this.
This scenario is one of the reasons I just stopped playing after I tried the game again a few months back.
Regarding the proposal.
FC need all the funding they can get to keep the game alive and new content coming. Saying no to changes that would benefit causals and new players is the same as saying no to extra income.
People should also understand that if changes are only catered for the hard core gamer sooner or later it will come back and bite you in the ass.
