Confusion About Party Conventional Wisdom.

[chicagoY]

Just about everybody here has played longer at Party than I have so let me apologize in advance for any ignorance that I am about to parade. My stance on "Monster" isn't as negative as everybody else's, and yes that may be because I don't really understand the cost/benefit break down well but if I get a better understanding from looking stupid then that's a good enough reason to post.
A few points:
1. I've had the week off and have been poker junkying it up which is also due to my fear that the sites, one by one, will will start throwing us land of the free (that was a joke) types off soon.

With Party, I've logged a ton of hours since Monday and I find the monster games total wildness but still encouraging in light of all the talk of NL drying up. Monster guys are nuts! Its like a Gamblers Anonymous meeting on 100 tables.
Yes, I'm barely up, and its rough having all those callers with AA. Yeah, the beats have been a horror show yet, as we all know, it's a long term game and I'll take the long view about the beatings and raise calls with unsuited junk. I do know that this view comes more naturally to most of you than it does to me as alot of 2p2ers never seem to tilt.
2. An inequitable increase in rake along with none of us not getting any monster jackpot loot hurts and does suck, but doesn't the better action somewhat mitigate? Rake online is always less that B&M and these games remind me of robbing drunks at 5 am at the Excalibur. It'll pay off sooner or later.
3. I've never had warm feelings toward Party anyway so I guess nothing would shock or offend me like it did others. Maybe my confusion here is also a result of low expectations. One expects a scammer to scam so, while annoying, it has been a humorous vacation from nitland.

I agree that the regular, non-monster games are definitely worse, and I admit that all of you know better than I do about Party so any explanation is appreciated. I know some of the math guys could clarify why its not worth staying there with a simple equation so thanks in advance.
