I agree with you except for one thing. You wrote that:

That argument is a logical fallacy called "
Affirming the Consequent." Fallacious arguments are, by definition, invalid.
If zen didn't care the game would be gone. The game is still here, therefore zen must care.
It's entirely possible that zen doesn't care, has left the game on.
Zen should do whatever she needs or wants to do. What disappoints me about the game is that without active administration, it is no longer a game. A game has rules that must be followed and enforced. Without enforcement of rules, it is no longer a game. If is a free-for-all where those who break or ignore the rules most efficiently are able to gain advantage over those who continue to play by those rules.
So, I don't come to AL for the game anymore. I come for the online social interaction. AL is a forum where I hang out with my online friends, and go through the motions of playing.
But make no mistake. AL is not a game anymore. I hope it will be again.
