I wouldn't call it guilty - more like using every avenue at your disposal.

Queue Extender and Resource Boost could take up a little less than half that, toss in a few Instant Spies here and there or Medics and Prestige, and $300 doesn't last too long. Many of us have full time jobs that pay well and this game is one of our few vices. I've got a doctor, an architect, a mason, a few builders, a few tech consultants and some sales guys in my guilds, so we do have money to spend when we want.
Even in 1k worlds with gold spenders, this game is still more balanced that comparable games I've played in the past. If you feel 1k worlds are too biased towards gold spenders, move to 5k worlds where you have a better chance. As for the GWs, I'm sure there's enough gold and skill to go around, to at least have a decent battle. This isn't like today's schools. Not everyone is going to get a trophy. Sorta like real life.

I actually respect a good portion of those players. All I am saying is Gold takes the overall strategy away. A monkey with a 10K bankroll will outplay you any day, period. Bicker and defend your strategy all you want. You have a serious leg up because you have heavy bankrolls. Even your description of your strategy says so. A guy that drops 250-500 on day one in a 1K world needs no strategy. Just pay to win. As for the jiberish about whatever your rambling about, I don't know I'm not involved in that. Haven't actually been attacked yet in the GW but I'm not really paying much attention as it was pretty clear from the start who was going to do what.
