Also not to put too fine a point on it but you expect them to make the game host it for you and continue to update it but you never have any intent for paying for the service and seem upset at the concept of it.
Although I see your point, I do look at it the opposite way round. Players expect Cryptic (PWE or whatever) to make a game, host the server and continue to update it without paying because that's how it's sold to the player base at large.
You can't advertise your game as being entirely free-to-play and then say somebody has a terrible attitude for choosing not to pay.
A lot of people like STO, will play STO, and enjoy their time with STO but won't support PWE because of what it seems are money-driven design choices forced on Cryptic and the player base. You can't support STO and/or Cryptic without supporting PWE and thus you have no choice but to keep your wallet firmly closed.
Everyone should be able to make that choice because that's how the game is advertised.

I just watched Brandon live stream some Season 8 content and I've got to say I'm kinda looking forward to the 20 man ground map. Capture and hold PvE looks like it could be a lot of fun.
The revamped reputation system seems much easier too.
