I couldn't care less about a title, all 5 of my butts glowing at once, or a % on IRC, but I'll gladly apply for Jr. Dev if that means that my contributions stand a chance of being put out there for the public to benefit from.

Well said, RD.
This needs to be stickied, highlighted, and PMed to everyone on the project. To me, eqemu isn't about making my e-penis bigger, how many people play server X, or titles. Its about sharing the time you spend on a hobby so that others may enjoy your hard work, and build on top of it. I find it offensive some people make great additions to their project, but purposfully keep it to themselves so they have unique "come play me server, it has X Y AND Z lolz keke!!!11!!" sold as features.
What would have happened if Scorpious(sp!) had kept his AA changes to himself? TCS kept his DB to himself? The original devs kept the src to themself?
For the general population of admins, you are able to build something great only because people before you shared. Keep the circle going so everyone can benefit. Please.
