tldr -> If the server sucks so bad and you are the savior you believe yourself to be then quit polluting the boards with negativity and talk to nilbog about helping to develop the game and join the team! You can still play as a dev ... depending on what you do.

Hi Amelinda,
Just wanted to say from my perspective as a developer, when I joined p1999 about a year ago, I was very excited, and I sent PMs asking how I could contribute. I never heard anything back. Don't know if this is a common experience, but I just assumed they weren't interested in having other coders join the team.
Of course it's certainly possible that Nilbog just didn't repond, or he forgot, or any other perfectly normal reason. It's also true that I could also have pressed on and pinged more.. but I didn't hear back so I just assumed there wasn't interest.
If there is real interest in getting more devs to join, I would suggest a "potential dev FAQ" posted somewhere, with a list to the source code, how to build, how to run unit tests, etc. There are many red players who are also developers like myself that I'm sure would love to help.
