I currently get 700 coins a month, thats more then enough for the cathar, I dont have to pay extra for warzones or flashpoints and i dont have to pay a thing for operations or space. As it stands its alot more then what it costs for subs to get full access to all content so yes we pay less then f2p and prefered for this game and we get coins as a reward for being subscribers.

Added to this the value of 700 coins is very close to the cost of my sub per month.

First, you can continue as a subscriber, which gives you unlimited access to all game features and future Game Updates at no additional charge. http://www.swtor.com/info/news/blog/20120731

I've already covered this one. As soon as the patch went live, every player with a WoW account could create and play Pandaren characters, no Mists purchase required.

And every subscriber in this game can get the Cathar w/out paying an extra dime as well... you're getting 500 coins a month. So, you don't have to pay any extra beyond your sub fee to get them.

There's no room in there for someone else's opinion/interpretations is there?
I don't see what you contribute to this discussion/protest, all you do is tell everyone how wrong they are and repeat what you think over and over until I assume, we all cave and agree or something?

Sorry, I'm just going to stop discussing this with you.

Because is there is no wiggle room. Flat out. You can't argue that the Cathar race costs subscribers anything, because it doesn't. You can't deny that. If your interpretation of the Cathar race is that they're trying to nickel-and-dime subs for new races, I can only laugh. Truth is that new races are usually released in much more expensive expansions. Truth is that subs won't have to spend an extra dollar to get the Cathar race. Truth is getting the Cathar race is an option which is a good thing because I won't be forced to unlock someone I never intend to play.

Im curious, if bioware increased the cartel coin reward from 500 to 800 would that make you happy? Or is it the principle of it being on the cartel the issue no matter the amount of coins given to you?

A whole new meaning of :

complimentary

So you're admitting that those so-called complimentary coins are no more complimentary but more like "you-gotta-save-them-for-the-content-we-said-you-wouldn't-pay" coins ?

Because this is what they call them every month we receive the email :

"Your complimentary cartel coins reward grant"

When was it said you would never pay coins for cosmetics? If for that matter is it really that important to play a cat?
