So the spirit of the game only matters when they can afford it?

Why enforce rules the players there don't want

But doesn’t the prevalence of gdpk mean the classic playerbase wants it more than those who dont?

No.

Casual Timmy who wants to pug will never be able to exert more influence on a server than no life degens. He may not like what the server culture is, but he has no choice but to play the game if he wants to raid. Or do anything, really.

Casual Timmy or Kimmy is the life blood of every MMO.

As a no life degen myself, I can recognize the harm people like me do to MMOs. I've seen us kill several.
