Yeah, I only touched on the 'why not' briefly but this is also an excellent point. And there is no such thing as a bipartisan server owner. Once you upload it they think they have some sort of power over you and your content.

I've had it happen a few times, now unless it's a good e-friends server or my own I'll only code in pieces and then save it to my computer which isn't really viable for larger projects.

just kidding, but I agree with Soala, I would never let someone else host my work because they will always request something in return.

You can't blame me because you lack trustworthy friends.

trustw..what?
Can't blame us either, trustworthy friends are somewhat REALLY rare.

And let me tell you again, even if I had someone kind of trustworthy, it would still feel weird to host it somewhere else. Having Ruins hosted on my very own account feels more secure, and I can manage everything I want, only me and Axel. Even if I'd get full rights, I cannot accept the idea of having someone with full rights who's probably not even an experienced developer/manager.

I just want to always be able to control everything. Got a problem? Deal with it, it's not going to change anytime soon.

If you don't give a **** then don't come in here with your comments in the first place.

Why are you still trolling this thread? postcount++? He was simply asking for someone to send him money via paypal. If nobody wants to then he wont get the cash and if they do they will.

(^ timeline assumes playerworld actually succeeds, majority of the time they don't)

But in all seriousness, servers fail because they're too hyped to get working on stuff without actually putting all the time that's needed into planning. Really, really good planning can shave a few years off dev time, and possibly save a good server. And I don't mean just a small .txt with little details, I mean fleshed out stuff. Sketched maps of the overworld(and perhaps even settings, along with REASONS for a town, personalities and histories of the NPCs), lots and lots of ideas, concrete plans that bring everything together, and a firm, firm idea of what you want.

If you're talking about classic servers... oh, I dunno honestly. Just something doesn't tick for me to bring me in. If I wanted to play an RPG, I'd go play one of the many better ones out there. Era is too laggy for me(I've played 3D games where lag wasn't that big of an issue for me, being on 56k). Hmm, and others just don't seem to offer much. Maybe some would be nice but they insist on ass-ugly tilesets that burn my retina's and push me away from the server. As for the 'classic-type' servers, they offer no direction. I like exploring, but I hate randomly running around doing mindless things hoping I find a quest, and then finding one only to see it's kill a bunch of baddies or push a million blocks. Then find there's nothing to do with the fullheart I gained because the server is dead.
