Don't like it, don't buy it.
You can't just think of it as people buying belts, you have to think of it as NABI getting a bit more income in order to keep the game up and running for the rest of us.
And, as has previously been mentioned, it's pretty easy to tell if they have done it.
In addition to your points about belts being worthless, they pretty much were already.
Since the community expanded, you get some naturally skilled people arising by blue belt and some still bad people at master belt just because they played a lot.
As the the decrease in quality, i don't even know how to address such a ridiculous point.
"decreasing the quality" how may i ask?
The game is the same, if you ask me the quality of playing has on average increased (and with it the number of whiney ass whipes), siku has told me that many a time, and the game is still roughly the same, if it's the people that ruin the game for you then just dont play with them, or just leave seeing as your petty enough to let something like that bother you.
Furthermore to all of this, few people actually buy QI due to the amount of stigma attached to it.
If you're judging people when joining a clan on belt alone then you really haven't done your research at all and it shows a weak clan.
Seriously people, stop complaining, sit back down, and enjoy the game god damnit.
No offences intended in any of this, i simply think people complaining about stuff ruining the game like this need to put it into perspective and learn what constitutes as a "ruined" game.
