Maybe they think that the lack of players at retail servers are because of private ones... What a mistake.
I agree. For me it's a really desperate move from their behalf. If they wanted people to come back to their server they could have done it with million other ways instead of try to "kill" open source projects.
Who ever leave a private server it's because of several things but for sure not to move on the official servers

Perhaps it's a long term strategy, let the emulator users bleed out. From what I've seen in general, single-server serverpacks end up being an unmaintainable pile of shit. Without some kind of an over-project, it will be like RS, for example. Classes (single files) with 7-15 MB of source code and other last-stage degenerate stuff all over.

The point is that this ones will stay around not how good they are .
Ok guys, I know it has been many pages, but the situation is clear. Any organisation that provides any form of hosting services must respond to DMCA requests. So don't name these organisations, it's completely pointless.
It has been made clear by the team that no temporary solution is acceptable here.
