Yes, Randy is spot on: be careful what you wish for! Like Rom, I too have been pondering the possible outcomes. I think a likely outcome is that FM/EA remove the ads for free gold completely, meaning everyone ends up worse off. (I suspect FM/EA achieve good revenue from the ads to speed up servicing and upgrade times.)

I'm not saying people should not complain or pursue it as far as they want to, as this is a matter of principle, and is highly annoying (to say the least!). I am only saying that the resultant outcome may not be one that us players are happy with...
