No, the problem is limited to the deceit and funding deceitful people.
If a server runs mods that alter the game - add bots, extra health,
premium accounts that's fine.
(well, it's up to valve, not me, as obviously mods are derived works but
they are happy about modding)
If a server runs mods that deceive me that their server isn't running
these plugins, isn't using bots or has more players on it than it does
then that's a bad thing tm.
At that point it's not really an issue to say "well if people want
premium what's wrong with it?" - what's wrong with it is the
dishonesty of the people running it. I wouldn't buy milk from gangsters,
not because there's anything wrong with buying or selling milk but
because there's a lot wrong with gangsters.
