Developing should be free for servers that are staff-only

We are a safety net at best..

and chances are that no one would help, even if we contacted them. at least if a global, who has some social significance to graal, asks someone to help out, they might think about it. and again, you only choose to be a safety net, at best. you could be doing a lot more to push some new content into graal, but instead you let it sit and marinate until the **** can't smell any worse
