I am glad Drak can't delete stuff like this on these forums like he deletes stuff on his forums every time someone says something he doesn't like. Every time he comes up with a whacked out idea and posts some crazy stuff on his forums he deletes it after he realizes what a whacked out idea it was. That's after he roasts you for pointing out it was a bad idea even if you do it politically and nice. Like the time the server had been down for a couple of months and he starts begging for money because he couldn't pay his bills out of the donations anymore. What was it you were charging the server per month for office rent? $600? That's on top of charging the server for your ISP bill and your hosting bill. I'd post a link to it but you deleted that thread. In that thread you challenged anyone to go and make a server and dev it and work a full time job. You said it couldn't be done, and that is how you justified making your living off server donations. I've been playing emu since before they figured out how to get agro to work. You're the only person I have ever seen go as far as you have with making an eqemu server their primary source of income. I could name off tons of people who fully developed their own servers with less help than what you have received while working a full time job, and some of them more than one job.

I realize my post can be seen as a bit trollish and definitely out of place being here instead of on the servers forums but some of this stuff needed to be said, and said in a place where Drak can not censor or delete it. People have donated their own money only for you to take your server down for months. And how many drastic changes have you made to your server? People didn't donate to have the rug pulled out from under them and to have their characters completely redefined and in some cases rendered completely useless. Especially when you further limited the IP. Not because of a bandwidth issue, but in a bid to control how people play your server. I tried to tell you how that was going to work out for you and you roasted me for it. Again I would post a link but you deleted the thread.

You asked on your forum, (again another thread that was deleted) why people were not playing on your server. It's not so much the content, some of your content is frikken genius. You're inconsistent, you moderate your forums more strongly than the Chinese government, you make drastic changes to content, you come off as extremely money hungry because you never miss an opportunity to encourage donations, and when you ask for feedback if you don't like a response you launch into the person about how wrong they are. Basically, what is wrong with your server is you. It's really sad too because you have some brilliant ideas and are very talented. If a server had you as lead dev but someone else who was making the decisions it would go far.
