When a dev owned server picsk a GM who flaged their account to GM status? The dev... When they new GM becomes a total asshole whos fault is it? The devs for poor screening...
First of all, "50 lb box on your head and breaks your neck who do you sue? Walmart..." involves DAMAGES. No such damages were thrust upon you. Having your account removed, banned, your character taken - these are the rights of the person who controls the PC, with some rights delegated to GMs. You are still here, still connecting to the server, etc. etc. Last I checked, Image wasn't required to even give you access to his server, nor write the code that runs it, nor babysit his GMs. If you donated, bust his chops, yell at the GM, whatever. You might have some clout with him. Image and the other devs owe you nothing.

If you want a server where you can do whatever you want, when you want, with whomever you want, you can HAVE IT! That's the beauty of the emulator. Run it at home, and avoid the GMs. Drawde has a wonderful database. The software is pretty sweet. It's free if you want to take it. What I'm saying is that the EMULATOR is what you'd be donating towards, not the individual servers. If you want to challenge the fact that donating is a good thing still, I'd like to hear your excuse.

"because you dont like it when people state their veiws" seems like a flame to me. It is a direct attack at my personal character, based on something I didn't even do; I refrained from doing it. I took that kind of stuff out because it sounded defensive and childish. I was hoping you'd listen to the facts.
