Squeal is a micro-transaction system, everyone gets 2 free spins a day then if you want anymore you have to buy them. It's a necessary evil to help move the game forward, even if people don't like it. As for pures being useless, they might have a slight use I'm not sure. But perhaps you've come back at a good time because tomorrow they are releasing the Evolution of Combat which is a massive revamp to the current combat system. Even though there's been a beta for it there will be lots of people who still aren't used to it, so you'll be in the same boat as lots of people :) Also, I suggest you join a clan if you want people to play with, it will help keep your interest in the game and make it more fun :wink:
