Im sure there also people who would like to run more private servers for numerous reasons from just thier friends to under developement; where they dont have to announce to everyone theyve got a server just to be able to log in from more than just locally.
Since weve got a sprint of developement, some needs to be put into cutting the cord to the biggest weakness of Emu, the login server.

thanks for considering your players while making decisions (well I play on PEQ so maybe not yours but more CD's, and I have no idea who you are, sorry) but basically what I was saying, is replace the current central login server with a better central login server instead of us having to install separate shit for each server, I know some people probably play on more than one server, personally, I just play on PEQ and my own shitty server to test / when PEQ is down, I do agree the LS right now is pretty shitty at times, so it does need to be fixed, but I don't think having us all install more shit would be the best solution.
EDIT: also I'm not too sure what you're talking about with zones being flakey when the LS is down, they seem to be just as bad as normally when it's up, I think its more we dread it happening when we know the LS is down so we worry about it more. And we do have MiniLogin if people want to run more private servers, although that system could be improved to make it easier to add people, but there are scripts / php pages to do that
