I watched the episode yesterday (at least the first 20 minutes and parts of it), seeing you bring out perfect arguments, laying them out very structured to the point where I was baffled that there was even an argument about them by dave.

The way I see it, the close community and sense of belonging is really big in Splinterlands, which keeps many on board. The costs however, have been at a point where they are just ridiculous (Post Linkand this conflicts situation pushed things even further.

If they actually want to bring in new players, they should finally start focusing on allowing new players to experience Splinterlands at its most fun level at a very affordable cost. For years it has been focus on the economy keeping existing whales spending at the cost of fun & gameplay while the barrier of entry for new players became bigger and bigger.

From what I understand things changed after your rant and I hope you get all the airdrops you need. It's only fair to get the airdrops at close to max level if you paid for a max level set instead of a couple.
