Chirs, you're looking at it through a very simplistic lens. I am looking at it through MyTona's eye. Their goal is to make money, right? I pay money to them. Why? Because I enjoy the game! And that enjoyment is largely because I can TT and because I have many friends who TT.

If MyTona takes away TTing, they will remove a huge part of the game, making it suddenly become painfully slow. Why would I pay more money on a game I enjoy less? I won't.

That will then have a ripple effect. All the friends TTers share with will find their games become more slow. No more waking up to see what the "TT fairy" left them last night. No more special fun. Just the same monotony over and over again with very slow progress. Why would those players spend money on a game they find less fun? They won't.

For every minute any of us spend on the game, MyTona can send us their popups with offers. They're similar to commercials while watching TV. The more offers we see, the more likely we'll buy one. Why have commercials been around for... ever?! Because they work. But they only work if people see them. Anything MyTona does to extend our play time increases their chances of getting us to buy something. And anything MyTona does to decrease our play time decreases their chances of getting us to buy something. Multiply that downstream for all TTers and their friends.

MyTona would be biting themselves in the butt if they block TTing. If they can't get that then they deserve the consequences of their actions should they make that mistake.
