This is an oxymoron yes?
I agree completely.
The forums are where the dedicated reside. But we're also a drop in the bucket of the actual player base. Nothing we say or do matters.
This forum will die long before the game does.
I guess this all depends on your definition of "a lot". My guess is, at most, they lose three percent. Peanuts.
Personally, I don't think R* will reset anything, but they have every right to do so with no repercussions. Except the constant whining of it's players. Which we seem to do no matter what. Always something to bitch about right?
I'm also not disagreeing with you at all @Euphoric77. If I were you there's no way I would (re)grind for that long just to be back where you are right now. Too many games coming out to do that. But people will.
Hardly a blip for R*.
