I play Evony and I am very competitive. I have also never spent any money on the game, nor do I receive any free items based on my position. I have put the screws to plenty of players who have spent money on the game. This game is certainly free forever if you wish it to be.
That said, we are a business and the servers are not free to run, nor could we afford to work on the game for free or continue to support it for free. We really love the "Free Forever" model because everyone can participate at the level they wish to. If you want to be a hardcore power player and help support the game at the same time, you can. If you want to relax and never pay a dime, but just build a kingdom slowly or pick an occasional fight with your neighbors, you can do that too. How you play is completely up to you!
You are spending $30 for 300 Evony Cents. The Bonus Package is free, because it doesn't cost anything.
As I mentioned before: if you went to Best Buy and bought a Xbox 360 and then the next week you came back and it was on sale, would you yell at the manager and be outraged? Of course not. How is this any different?
