no, they could make a npc server that ran with the server that they have telnet access to, thus if it goes down they can boot it up on their own.

All i can say is nothing will be done that is a major security risk to the game..the telnet access is something they wouldn't allow...I mean if the global admins cannot do it, i don't think server-side staff shall be able to either...it's all the risk and all these fears and problems that given access can bring if people decide to abuse their right to have that access..it's best kept as is yet it sucks because only 2 people known can fix the problems, yet they are the 2 hardest people to reach at times.

As for the renting of the server...good idea, but I am not sure how'd that work, because if you stop paying, do you lose your server? then people will jump in and pay for it and take it from you? Everything leads to wonderous questions....

Guess we'll see what the future holds..
