[deleted post]Don't be too quick to label people. Personal insults are the refrain of the weak.

INSTALL is actually ok, except iTunes App Store already used this word previously, for apps that were already paid for or downloaded previously, but then deleted from the iPhone, which is why they may have gone for GET instead.

Good. Since these so called FREEmium games are destroying my favorite pastime because every bean counters out there think this is the way to go as the future of gaming. Whale (aka ppl who are too naive to see that this game is desinged to suck your money) milking frenzy galore.
