Worlds.com still exists because it's a money laundering scheme.

No, it isn't. But of course, money is involved here.

It's still active today because they're still receiving traffic and the net income is higher than the cost of maintaining the servers.

As I said, it's a bit more complex!
It's all about the money... Or the possibility of making A LOT of money.

Bump!
I'll give you a clue, and I'll let you try until I wake up tomorrow.
Think about it... The game is old, its servers are still active, and the reason behind that is because there's a potential possibility of winning A LOT OF MONEY in case there's something specific that could happen. Worlds.com is similar to, for example, Second Life.

Normally I'd wait more, but since there are unlimited opportunities for y'all I'll withdraw the question.
Of course, there are some benefits with this game still being active, but the most important reason is the patent! Worlds Inc. registered patents related to virtual worlds and 3D environments online. If the game is still active, it's still a proof of concept for those patents, so they can demand bigger companies if they have the opportunity. Crazy, right?
Another matchball for Master!
