Re: In my (somewhat questionable) opinion...

Personally I think this is a bad idea. I can see the plusses (only people who genuinely like Graal will play it, thus eliminating a large amount of the unproductive population) but I honestly can't see how this will help anything.
For example, as I'm signed on right now, there are 20 people on Graal p2p servers. There are 287 people on non-p2ps at the same time. Those servers will soon become cost-y, as outlined in Stefan's grand scheme. However, those people are NOT on those servers for the content (although that's kinda an added bonus). They're NOT on there out of loyalty to a certain PW either. Wanna know why they're on there?
Because it's free.
We will lose a sizable chunk of skilled Graal players who disapprove of this idea. Call them freeloaders, or people who don't contribute, or whatever the heck you like, but hundreds, perhaps even thousands of people who keep the free playerworlds up, yet don't want to pay, will quit. And if all the free playerworlds lose this many people, pretty soon, there will be just 20 people on there too.
... Then again, that's just my opinion. And if I'm entitled to mine, you're entitled to yours. Feel free to argue with it at great length.
