I remember this being the subject of much fun back in the day, regarding exactly when CM knew about the F2P transition. Me and Cossie had some great arguments about it In the end it turned out they knew about F2P well before the lifesubs were offered at the discount. I think. ( this is going back a while so I'm not 100% ).
I can understand why they sold them - they were stiffed by Turbine so made what they could, and in hindsight it has turned out to be a good deal. But I just think it wasn't very honest to not be upfront about the F2P move when selling the life subs. But I have a bit of a soft spot for Codies going back to the days of the ZX Spectrum so....
