That's an over-simplified view of how things (should) work. You cannot simply hand access to a server, as to upload the result of his "[programming] like fuck," especially when he's already proven himself untrustworthy with his keylogging stunt. Yes, that proves that he's capable of such programming, but would you really want someone like that to have access to your server? Besides, there's no guarantee that S.p.y would be able to complete anything in a more timely manner than our GMs currently do, which I grant is slow. He'll hit the same speedbumps and he'll get the same grief.
I hope people soon realize that the GMs are doing us a favor by sticking around. If every GM that is considered incompetent on grounds of being "lazy" were to quit, there wouldn't be any left. With nobody left to wrangle and manage you cretins and with Zer so disturbingly disconnected from the community, I doubt there'd be a game left to play.
At all who complain about the lack of progress, arguing that since you pay for the game, you should see improvement, I laugh. You invested money in a third-party, little-known game created and maintained by a guy who runs his own server and employs the help of former players. This isn't Sega, people. You invested money in a game, but it's not an actual investment, not in a Wall Street sense. The game has not suffered unfair amounts of downtime, and in the last year-and-a-half, there have been no noticable declines in the quality of your gameplay. It has been maintained. You paid for the game in a certain state and you still have that state. You didn't invest in the game to see "improvement" and you shouldn't demand to see any in return. You're paying for the ability to equip your skullblades and master robes, to mail without tax, to use your bank slots, and to level in GeG in the tireless pursuit of kicking the digital-ass of someone who really shouldn't care. You received everything you were promised.

Judy, I like you, but I don't know why you turned your post into a diatribe against the game administration.
It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.
