Rake increase... my thoughts
The most productive thing you can do is not think about it. Stick you head in the sand. Nothing you can do will change anything and the ill will/waste of energy IMO is counterproductive to playing good poker.

This has significant consequences for many player's bottom lines and possibly the future health of the games. It's not so insignificant as to be ignored.

While the chance is slim, it's not none.

Re: Rake increase... my thoughts
Complaints could at least make them reconsider doing it again anytime soon _if there's enough of them_

They may also fail to understand the effect this could have on their games. The increased rake will cause losing players to lose their money faster. There will also be less winning players which means less players moving up in limits which means less players at the higher limits which means less rake. Mason talks briefly about this in PE II.
