That would be terrible. EQLive is a disgusting joke now. $15/month for a few thousand subcribers is a joke to them now. The real money comes from blasting the global system message system every 15 minutes letting you know there is a new Legends of Norrath booster pack available for purchase for $10 each, and if you buy about 200 of them there's a decent chance you may get an in-game reward that is relatively exclusive.

Or you can try their new strategy of spending 98% of developer's time designing new "Station Market" items for the weekly updates in which you can use real life cash to purchase advancements and novelty items in-game. Leveling too slow? Buy exp potions for $10! Just bought someone's character of eBay and need to look like you're not playing a stranger's character? Change your race/sex/name for $40! The amount of pure trash items you can buy for cash is astonishing.
