Thanks for your responses all. Having thought about it some more I think my issue is the title of "Founder" that you're given.

For me, a founder of something is someone who was a part of its creation in a direct way; in the past this might have related to a town for example, but in a modern sense we could apply its meaning to those who start companies. I think my mistake was that I had stuck too closely to that definition when I thought of you guys and saw you being called Founders; it made me think of you as actual serious investors who stood to gain something of value outside of Warframe. When I noticed that you were just given in-game currency and exclusives I was a bit concerned, especially given how much money DE were asking for some of the Founder tiers.

My perspective now is that you contributed to Warframe's/DE's survival by purchasing an exclusive access pack, a Collectors Edition if you will. By my reasoning above you should not be called "Founders" because it goes against how I would define a founder; as I said above you had no hand in creating Warframe. I can more comfortably think of you guys as "Collectors" though.
