Sounds like olyou should take a refresher ethics course. And if not that, a business course because you're just going to drive your idea into the ground the way you're going. There's your feedback.

By the way, users will instantly close your game if you cause their cpu fans to spin up to 100%

Good luck with your doomed project :)

You do know what throttling and debouncing are right? Or do you need to take an actual computer science class?

Of course. I also know you're not going to earn any remotely significant amount of money from crypto currency mining if you do that.

You're looking to monetize. That makes it a business. If not we're back to square one, skip out on a Starbucks and just pay for your server costs yourself rather than fucking over your users :)

Maybe if you manage to create something worthwhile people will be willing to pay you some money. It's not like you need much of it for a single server. Consider it an opportunity to learn how to not piss away money/time.
