Catering to the time poor casual crowd, vs the expectation of attention for the all-you-can-eat gluttons...
Arnold = $15/month, plays 10 hours per week, keeps on playing
Benjy = $15/month, plays 50 hours per week, quits after 4 months
Arnold plods along, Benjy burns through all content in a few short months.
Arnold provides $180/year, Benjy pays just $60.
Arnold only puts 10 hours of load on the server per week, Benjy takes 50 hours of load. For every Benjy, the server could support 5 Arnolds (more like 3, given peak hour time collisions).
And yet ... Benjy is the one that whines "I pay $15/month, I play lots of hours, I deserve to be treated as the most favoured customer".
