The point I was making to him wasn't that I bought game time with very low work but the final part of the reply, in that do not underestimate the capacity of the casual gamer to never figure out that stuff even if it's not that hard, be it because they don't have time or they don't care (I also liked it a little, not excessively of course).
e.g. you may have one player using TSM to the fullest and practically paying for his subscription with 1 reposting cycle in 1 day for 10 minutes, and another that finds it hard to do it in 20 days. That indirectly explains why some players think everything is expensive (some others simply find it easy to acquire gold).
