I most certainly do put money on the table. I was told, as was every other VIP, that each quarterly update would be free to VIPs. With VIP benefits going down the drain (remote access to mail does NOT make up for this quarterly update being taken out of the VIP benefits or for the Moors being sold in the store), it's getting downright discouraging. I have almost 20k TP. I can live off that for a very long time. I don't have to be VIP, but I choose to for the perks. If the perks keep going away, so will my subscription. What other reason will I have to give them $10 a month? A change in marketing strategy? Pfft. But I guess it's all academic. It would seem that U13's new content simply must be tied into the HD. The whole story about the quests in Fangorn being connected to the epic line is bull. I completed all non-epic quests and the dailies before I even touched the final chapter of the epic line. There is absolutely zero reason for this action, except to try and get more sales out of HD.

That said, Fangorn is probably only worth 200 TP anyway. Almost the entire thing is a set of repeatables. It's very reminiscent of the Limlight Gorge. You do your starters, and then you get a bunch of repeatables. Except it's solo-friendly (well, the trolls are a pain, but aside from them...).
