You don't think they get money for running p99? They get donations. Albeit, I'm sure it's slowed quite a bit in the last year or two and that's why I feel like that's why there is almost zero sightings of the big wigs anymore since they're in the end stages of what they set out to do and all they can do is cycle servers in classic and have what, only 2 or 3 current servers per their agreement with daybreak? I know they made a killing when they turned on ads during the whole celebgate thing went down. But their interest in this project is just non-existent anymore or they would have put forth SOME kind of effort in the last couple of years to maintain interest but it's clear they give basically fck-all about anything anymore except for maybe milking what's left with the least amount of effort given. But they definitely made money. I dunno why they chose to just allow things to die a slow painful death with all the effort that was put into this thing in the beginning, unless it was just their agreement with daybreak that kept their hands tied, but like I said, it feels like they made theirs and are just milking what's left and letting it die a slow painful death 🤷🤷

They get donations to help offset some of the cost and expense of keeping the servers running. They're not legally allowed to make money off the IP.
