I've played this game since it started. I must say that there have been lots of change through out the years, some good, some not so good. Through it all, I do believe that the game makers are trying to make it a better experience for all players. Trying to keep the paying and non paying players happy. Anyone who plays must make their own mind up themselves about the game. I will say this, unfortunately money makes the world go round and this is a business (making games, selling them)
