Small guilds are starving while huge guilds (full of whales) have the upper hand in everything in this game.
It's become harder and harder F2P to be competitive.
Everything CG release the cashers buy immediately, making a larger abyss between them and the F2P.
Both CG and whales: you, guys are murdering the game and drain all the fun of playing it.

In the context of this thread (GET) this post makes absolutely no sense. Ironically GET is one of the only currencies (and in fact, one of the only "things") in the game that is NOT monetized. You can't "speed" up GET acquisition significantly. Sure being, in a stronger guild can yield a few more. Yes, being in a larger guild (45-50) that can put up more stars in TB helps as well. But very little of that has to do with money. Guild size is simply a function of what guild you choose to be in - there are many f2p guilds that are "large" (45-50) - and many of them, especially those with long time players are getting in the mid 20s in terms of Geo TB stars. If the top "whale" guilds are pulling down 30 stars or so, that's only a few hundred GET difference.
Yes, people that pay to support the game have an advantage - that's by design, otherwise, why would they pay?
All of that said, GET is a "playwall" currency, not a "paywall" one. And you know how you can tell? Look at some of the people complaining the most about GET as the way to star up Malak and GAS (hint: it's the whales, not the f2p).
TL;DR - GET as a way of "gating" progress is not a f2p v. whales issue.
