You have to remember that bandwidth is the number one cost in maintaining a server, which means that as a game gets more popular, its server maintenence costs get more expensive. This translates to more down time more often, unless they make the gamers pay more, so they can have more reliable, faster servers.
*edit: this means that server costs spike very quickly, which means that prices should fluctuate as well.
And I know 18 year olds who are like that kid. Kinda sad really, when you get angry over something that's supposed to be fun.
