I joined Party & Empire years ago, probably before rakeback existed or I knew it existed. Then I kept reading here about people boasting about how much rakeback they're getting and I thought this can't be good for the game and it can't last. David Ross was making pretty good money and he gets money on top of that? Why? It'll ruin the game quicker if you ask me.

Ruin for who?
You seem to forget that rakeback not only goes to huge winners, it also goes to marginal losers (who end up breaking even or winning slightly because of rakeback). Furthermore it means a smaller amount of money goes from the poker room to non playing affiliates and instead a larger amount goes to actual players.
Now if you wanted to argue that Party should cancel all affiliate payments and use the money they save to lower the rake for everyone, I would agree it help. But that hardly is going to happen.
