I will admit that there are times that I slacked off and stopped putting as much time into it because of constraints in my life and needing to pay my tution bill instead of spending gross amounts of time on something that was purely volunteer. I did it because programming was fun and it was nice to be able to help others out and get started learning to program. The status quo does need to be changed if the game is to continue to succeed and perhaps grow, but it's been known for quite some time that reform is needed. As far as making typos and spelling errors, I don't think that is really a display of incompetence, just of being human. Usually customer service should have "proper grammar and spelling", but when you're dealing with unpaid employees, fixing a small spelling error I don't think is that big of a deal.
Also, Icarus will most likely get finished. I have study hours 2 hours a night for my fraternity, meaning that David has 2 hours a night of free time to code

I agree wholeheartedly. I don't think it's fair to call everyone in the global community incompetent, unless you know each and everyone of them enough to make that judgement. Even so, that is your own opinion. Personally, I think there are many competent global personnels, although some we can do without. I'd like to see GraalOnline's old hiring practices brought back (meaning making use of the forums so that the entire community can choose who should be a global). Mistakes are a part of being human, and when you don't have incentives to correct them, there are bound to be a few here and there.
Anyways, I have seen Icarus and it seems to be a good server and it probably will get finished. Whether or not it will make the classic tab is another question. We already have a gun-theme server, so is there room for another? I guess we'll see when it is finished, but until then, good luck to you.
P.S. David I'm taking your 2 hours. Seriously.
