Good choice to not shoot yourself in the foot, Mythic

— keenandgraev.com — The decision I’m referring to is tonight’s hotfix to remove the change made to the game in the 1.0.4b on 11/11/2008 (yesterday). This change was a heinous, horrible, and downright stupid (sorry for being blunt but it was) change to the ... (more) Good choice to not shoot yourself in the foot, Mythic

Snaffy's Space — ... who are holding the keep a discount on prices.2) Decrease the cost of claiming keeps. If the maintenance cost was 1 to 3 gold per hour, it would become much more affordable. At the moment, only the richest of the zerg guilds can afford it. ———— Put level 40’s in their own scenarios …Level 28-39s are competing for renown and xp. All level 40’s care about is renown.
