I don't know. It seems a bit like the "elite" thing which is a bit pompous IMO and doesn't mesh well with the premise of this place. It is not a bad idea, but if you leave out the little guys you will possibly alienate yourself and once everybody inside the ring has everything shared what is there left to do?
I could understand how some people would get tired of getting hammered, but IMO it is just part of the risk of running a server. What I don't get though is when I was running my server 100% public, I never had people hammering. Instead, I had a guy hacking me. LOL
Also, there have been times when I have tried connecting to some popular servers around here to find they were down. It is easy to say, "I'm in" but I honestly feel that many people can't truly run a server 24/7 or don't know what is involved. I would do so myself, but my kids play on this machine as well. I do home schooling for myself on this machine, game, etc. I can't have my server up 24/7 even though I have a fast 1500/500 kbps line now.
