Casual Mode Please

I love this game to death, but a few weeks ago I simply had to uninstall it and move on. With all of the post-intro PVP/PVE events run as ultra-competitive ratraces I simply couldn't justify the toll on my free time and my work and family life to continue playing competitively. I was faced with an ugly choice of three options. The first was continue playing competitively and watch my life unravel, which was untenable. The second was to play whenever I felt like it and just accept that I would constantly be in the bottom half of events and my roster would grow with glacial slowness. The third was quit and remove the problem.

I chose the third, but I do miss my MPQ fun from time to time, and I'm sure the MPQ devs miss having me as a paying customer.

I'd be very happy to purchase, for a one-time-fee or perhaps an annual subscription, access to the game and unlimited covers for all characters so that I could play in the sandbox with the cheaters. Or maybe be restricted to a fixed set of recycled PVE events. I'm not going buy ISO/HP and try to hang with the big boys, but I'd be happy to shell out $50 or whatever to have guaranteed ability to play the game at times convenient for me (and not for MPQ tournament schedules) and slowly develop my roster while stomping on AIs.
