The only things that matter are, matter of factly, what people roleplay. No matter if it is canonized or not.
The majority of players stay and stick for months and years. Nobody can convince me that people do their best to put efforts into their roleplay while trying their best to not do anything profitable ingame - simply because capitals and CAUs and special equipment exist.
Perhaps because the assumption was that it was canon? That their actions had some level of meaning, and that the devs were paying attention to events that were occurring, and only recently reality has come knocking at the door thanks to new management? I am not ignoring the flaws in the old system, rather focusing on criticism of the newer system because the more imminent issue is this document before us. Yes, people metagame, people powergame, and it's completely antithetical to an RP environment, but to have the environment's own stewards more or less come down on the community with the idea that no, they, who do more writing and put in more effort to provide characterization than the developers themselves do, are not canon unless they shill out money to be merely considered? Does that not strike you as degradation? Harmful?
