The older players still spend money every time new content comes out. I bought the damn cafe but why shouldn't I also get a in game cash building like yourself. A company's goal is to not only bring in new customers and their money but to also keep their old customers coming back and spending money. So your theory on them only caring about new customers is seriously flawed.
The money you have already given EA is spent by them. Doesn't matter how much you may have "invested" in the game... you're a dried up customer if you're not someone who has yet to buy all the premium items. The only new revenue they get is when you waste 300 doughnuts on a whale, they're not getting the money when you're new and need to have everything.
But new players... it's all possible revenue. New players are starting from zero and the main source of new cash coming in.
Quite frankly, you're wrong, and seriously wrong. Do you think you're gonna get people buying lots of donuts if they just started a game? I personally didnt spend a dime on this game till I was six months deep into it. The premium players who are already paying are going to be willing to buy again if the right item comes along. For a new player, they're still feeling it out. No person on this planet downloads a free-to-play game with the intention of spending hundreds of dollars on donuts like the players who have played for two years would. Because they have played for two years, they feel like its money well spent. If you're still new, with a small town, overwhelmed by all of the stuff and the sheer cost it takes to buy EVERYTHING, it scares more people away then draws in.
