It is naive to think a boycott of any nature won't hurt them in some way, shape, or form. Ask Microsoft what people boycotting can do! They have had to retreat not once, but twice in the last few weeks after outrage over online DRM / sharing of games and headset compatibility. It hurts a company's bottom line and even if 10 people who were paying before stop, it's going to hurt them.

The list of issues does need to be addressed. The biggest is that they need to make the top 1% more than 150. It needs to be 500 at least with so many players now. The other thing is the difference between the scores of 150 and say where I ended at 705. There was about a 500k point difference between 700 and 1100. Between 150 and 705 there was more than a 25 Million point difference. That's insurmountable for anyone to overcome who may come in late or pick up the "tiers" or 30 dollar X5 cards a day or two later than others. They should stop selling them once a certain point in the event comes, because otherwise you have no chance and have wasted your money. Even with paying a decent amount of money early this time, I still stood no chance at the top 150 unless I had spent another 100 - 200 dollars in cubes AND had spent every waking moment playing the game and had zero social life. Insane.
