4 Years of being stagnant

Yes. Expect great benefits consistently from a game you paid for 4 years ago. Great thinking.

I expect to get what I paid for.

Graal's whole business model is based around players building their content. Where have you been?

And then I think to myself, you're using the whole "I am a customer, I purchased this game, I should be able to play without developing" but then you go and demand that other players (much like yourself) should be designing content for you to work on. Is that hypocrisy or irony? I forget.

It's neither. Different people have different interests in games. Some people will want to play Graal to actually enjoy the work of others, some will want to 'play' Graal to make content for others to enjoy.

Xaphan has every right to want to only enjoy Graal as a player, not as a developer. If other people want to volunteer and develop a server that represents Graal, there is some responsibility. No, they're not getting paid, but they did volunteer. Just like if you were to volunteer at a soup kitchen, people still wouldn't tolerate you spitting in their soup and pissing in their drinks. It's not the same responsibility as a job, but right now MS doesn't want to give up his spot so he's only stopping someone more capable from stepping up and improving things. Xaphan, as a player, has every right to complain when things aren't fun. If someone wants to claim to be a developer, they should be prepared to have others criticize them, whether it's volunteer or not. Especially if they're preventing others from doing better.

My point, in a nutshell: Xaphan wants to just play. MS/Thor wants to development. As a player, Xaphan has the right to criticize the staff's work, even if they're not getting paid. Why? Because it comes with the territory and any developer, paid or not, knows that. Especially when there is money involved.
