This post is more of a plea than anything else, but...
 
The game already died once. Please don't let it die again by trying to short-sightedly cash grab. I know NCsoft probably is putting you guys under a lot of pressure, and selling service tokens is probably a huge concern, but the correct answer is not to gouge players for mandatory fees. That's just going to make them quit again.
 
You guys need to fix this quickly. The current setup is otherwise great, and you don't have to make it so people feel like they'll never have a reason to purchase service tokens, but wildstar is already on ice thinner than protostar's generosity. Now's the time to regain favor, not *cupcake* away what last chance this game has.
 
 
 
Edit:my gear is crap and look how much it costs to dye

Could you be a little more specific on what you are talking about when you say service costs? Repair costs? Runing costs?

			they need to people buy credd, dont seem that bad, im leveling and already 2 plats at lvl 25 and with a night of shiphands in my 50 got like 6 plat savaging and selling all the drops

			And offering rune extraction as a service token ONLY option is horrible.

The initial cost of re-rolling 30 slots broke the bank, but I think in the long run the costs will be reasonable, you're not always going to be getting a complete new set of gear. Also, Subscribers get plenty of gold and a decent amount of omnibits to buy service tokens.

To extract runes from a single piece of gear requires 225 service tokens. That is a month of saving omnibits without spending them on anything else and there is no plat option.

Um... maybe put the right runes in your gear the first time? I get that this may be frustrating.. but it's hardly a pay wall. Just rune your stuff right the first time. If you can't, then save your rune slots till you can. 
 
Also, hate to break it to you Ms. Yamaxanadu, but thats the same price to Dye as pre-F2P. It's cost me 6 plat to redye some of my better costumes with my supernova white pre-F2P.... the trouble we go through to look good ;3

			But anyway, charging someone 40-50 plat/45 service tokens, for a "mistake", or just because they wanted to put some temp runes in because they can't afford the "optimal" setup is also problematic. You shouldn't be doing the content unruned, but if you don't put in perfect runes, you are going to have to pay for your "rune progression". To completely upgrade every slot in your gear would cost around 15 plat. And you'd never use the service token option for that, because it's around ~1500 service tokens. Or 3,000 omnibits. Or six MONTHS of grinding.

Yeah the crappy pink used to be like, silvers. 
Now its multiple plat just to dye my crappy mix of crafted purples and greens. I shudder to imagine how much it costs to dye raid gear.
