No it is like the lame argument on piracy because it does not affect sales or subbing to any of the large extent that people proclaim.

People who play the free private servers would most likely not touch the legit servers even if there was no private server.

Same with people who pirate a game would most likely not buy it even if there was no way to pirate it.

Private game servers may not have been around since the 1980s like piracy but it has been around for quite some time and it doesn't seem to affect the mmo companies anyway.

Most of those lame companies try to count those piracies or private servers as loss of profit which is idiotic.
