I really don't think that it would have a very large player base. I mean, I don't think any of the new generation of players/very end of BOTS players would want to play a game with no free coins, barely any coin items, half the levels play, less exp, less sets to use, less items to use...
Just being the devil's advocate here. I think that from a straight out business prospective, I don't think you would be appeasing very many people, and would end up wasting a ton of money on a server that barely gets any income. Nonetheless, it would be fun.
