Also nevermind the fact that the manual is a tool for people to look up things and sometimes are hopelessly outdated, with a lot of things actually that has changed actually not written down in it.
When I as a support team member comes over a place where the manual doesnt fully cover or needs to be changed, I change it. Would you prefer that we didnt?

Changing the manual to reflect game changes that are defacto and running under a current game affects no one other than to inform them of the change.
Changing the Rules and Regulations to suit a personal whim, and without consultation of the user(s) who have signed up and paid to play the game under those rules and regulations which are refered to in the EULA here >>

Is not only an abuse of there position it is also contrary to the sale of goods act.
If you purchase a product (be it physical or ethereal) you expect that product to function in accordance with the published information, you buy that product on that basis.
For example you go along to The Hatters and buy a Season Ticket for this Season and it states in there published sales information that it allows you to attend 20 Home League games and and 5 Home Cup Games. You bought that Season ticket on the expectation that you would get that for your money.
Along you go to the Match and when you get there, they tell you that your Ticket only allows you the right to buy a Ticket for the match and that will be an extra £20 please.
Obviously your annoyed, but decide to pay the £20 on the expectation that you can dispute it later.
Your write to them and explain the problem, they reply that "yes the season ticket was sold on that basis, but we decided to put up the prices as we bought a new player"
That would not only be unreasonable it would also be in breach of the sale of goods act, and constitute an unfair contract.
The same applies to a Planetarion Player who pays to play.
