Those games make money on whale players. People who spend thousands of dollars.

But if whales have no one to play with those whales end up leaving too.

I know I'm preaching to the choir, BlahajEnjoyer, but for anyone else reading this, this is why it's important to also not play these sorts of games in addition to not spending money on them, if stopping any of this is important to you.
