Why are private servers on MMOs illegal?

Because a lot of them are "cracked" to allow free gameplay without paying.

APB has been a fantastic journey, but unfortunately that journey has come to a premature end. Today we are sad to announce that despite everyone's best efforts to keep the service running; APB is coming to a close. It's been a pleasure working on APB and with all its players. Together we were building an absolutely amazing game, and for that, we thank you. You guys are awesome!

From all of the Realtime World staff we thank you for your continued support.

The servers are still up, so join the party and say goodbye!

APB was a scam to get money, nothing else.

It was a scam, totally.
Definitely not a project that a large group of people spent years developing only to create something subpar, but like any good developer promising updates and fixes, but eventually causing them to go bankrupt.

RTW was an excellent developer, they made Crackdown. They just had the misfortune of investing their money into something that failed dramatically is all.
