Gaia is a FREE website to use. Less than half of the zOMG! players buy into the whole Gaia-Cash-for-zOMG-upgrades thing. Even then, nobody in this forum is entitled to anything. So it's not like you're in the right by making this "grab your torches, men!" post. It's their site, their business, their decision.
This parallels whining about every new Facebook update. You've seen how annoying that is.

Masquerade! Paper faces on parade. Masquerade!
It may be "their site, their business, their decision", but if it ultimately pisses off thousands of people of their userbase enough for them to withhold their money and even leave completely, it will hurt Gaia worse. It is up to THEIR COSTUMERS to VOICE THEIR OPINIONS if it means a chance at changing a very broken system Gaia has come to know and do over the course of the past few years. You need to visit SF more to see all of the bullshit they pull and how many people are actually willing to voice their opinions on something that irritates a majority of the userbase, whether they actually want to listen or not. If everyone in history just sat there and had your mentality society would be extremely worse off than it is now.
Hide your face so the world will never find you.
Gaia was functioning quite well before zOMG! came into the picture. The profit margin gained was hardly significant enough for them to pursue development. They're probably not losing customers all together, they're just losing three bucks per person from zOMG while they make six bucks somewhere else on the site.
