That makes NO sence at all. GO makes over $100 a year for each rented playerworld. If you make them all pass a test before even going private, then you're limited to maybe 5 or 6 playerworlds who will rent, instead of the 100+ now
Think about that... even if they only have 100 rented playerworlds, that's over $10,000 a year of income, and I am sure graal has more rented playerworlds than that.

Besides, to get past the private phase, each playerworld currently has to pass a quality inspection... I would agree that they could maybe make it harder for a PW to go hosted... but kicking all the paying playerworlds offline would just mean lost income. Since they have the server space already, they might as well use it.

Also, having a lot of private worlds has increased the number of developers... sure, a lot of the old famous ones have left, but a lot of people have gained basic developing knowlege by working on private playerworlds, where-as in the old system they might not have ever had a chance to learn.

You actually MAKE levels? I thought you just milk levels you made 2 years ago to make people think that you're good, then get hired for possitions and do nothing untill you're fired

My bad, I must have been mistaken
