I was the same boat you were 3 hrs ago when i learned about it,

Basically, most of the people around here play say 10 tables at a time at a 100+10 type enviroment.

That +10 that normally(if you are unaware of rakeback) goes directly to the house, in this instance it would be 100$ (10x10) now if you ahve 25% rakeback you get 25% of that back, IE 25$, doesnt seem like much. But from what i gather there are people out there who 8 table+ and play like 90 tournaments a day(or something crazy) as you see now the math of it all adds up and eventually really hurts.

guys who played a lot of SH earned 2k-5k a month in rakeback. fullring like 2-4k. sngs maybe even more, depends on level and amount per day. all of whom this was like 25% of their earn, roughly...and now its gone.

My God, everyone is overreacting to this so much. It's basically not a big deal at all.

you weren't around for the first 3 hours of panic. It looked pretty bad then, and even now the whole existing party account thing might be iffy.
