He's going to be facing legal problems regardless and I would be scared to have been involved in the project since you could also be held legally responsible for assisting him in copyright infringement.

No, I know. What I meant was this: People who donate to RSPS or other online games never donate in the hopes of prolonging the servers lifespan for longer. It's always to get something in return. Donor points, items, etc. That's why I'm saying they might as well call it a payment, because a donation is a gift that you don't get something in return for.. but, like I said, nobody would have donated if we didn't grant them access to pre-alpha.

@Jagx: I suppose I could be. Then again, all of the website code I wrote was 100% my own creation, so I wasn't stealing anything or infringing on any copyrights. Guess we'll have to wait and see, but I'm really not that worried. If we do receive a DMCA from Jagex or any kind of legal threat, I personally wouldn't want to stick around if they chose to ignore the threat or take-down notice and continue hosting. We don't know what Jagex will or will not do, we just have to wait and see. All of this gray area indeterminate B.S. is starting to get on my nerves, really. :rolleyes:

The money is going towards the cost of the server, that is the only reason why they began taking donations in the first place. Still don't know when the site will be up, I can't even get on our hosts site. I would send them an e-mail but I doubt they would get it. It's about 10 am on a saturday where they live so either they will have it up soon or they don't work weekends and we're screwed :|

What country are you from?

Also can you comment on how the server is going to handle the load of 50,000+ people trying to go into the alpha test when you guys cant even resist a small localized DDoS attack.

Thanks for any insight.

Yeah, thanks for the honesty you're the only mod that has the balls to talk to anyone..
