I think we need to straighten out the ways the tiers around here work...

There is the core development for the project, and core services. Login server, forums, eqemu development, etc, that Hogie,image, LE,Big, Quagmire, and I work on, that have nothing to do with the servers themselves. We have no control over what people do with the software, how they manage them, and what content they put in them. If you have a problem with a GM on a server, I'm sorry to say that you have no recourse as you're not paying a dime for the service. The fact is that there are plenty of immature, young, and inexperienced people that play on the servers, and we have no way of controling that, nor is it our right too. Even if it is on FH, which may be hosted on Hogies network, but that he has 0 intervention in. It is not HOGIES server, he just provides the services for it to run.

As far as not donating to the project, no one is required to donate, but to make the statement that 'I wont donate because someone on a server was mean to me' , when in fact that has nothing to do with the project itself is a bit on the blindside.

It really does sound like random reasoning for why you won't donate, if you don't want to donate , thats fine, but dont come up with reasons for not helping support the development of the emulator because you don't like someone's attitude thats not even involved in the development.

If you don't want to help support the continued life of eqemu, thats fine, but dont expect us to support you either.. So when your email address and ip's get banned accidently, don't expect any help from us. (Just kidding, I'd never do that, but some of the more immature people you were referring too might...LOL...)
