Well, to clarify my standpoint on the topic, it is indeed a lot of fun. But the problem is monopolising with businesses like GreenRoads Cafe. The only way I'd support player-run businesses is if there were a large number of them and they were spread equally (multiple food, multiple weapon, multiple ammo, multiple cafe, etc) and the only thing to worry about is location, like how the old older "Player Bizes" worked (Hachi's flawed, but sound in idea, system), but less ammo/weapon specific. As Squirt said, the Cafe being the only one of it's kind, there's no competition for a business that heaps of people use. They're the only ones getting the money for that revenue source.
The problem is, no staff team has been determined enough (or are made up of opposing ideals on the topic) to make something big with business direction happen. So, while it stands how it is, I would never give my support for player-ran businesses.
