I was under the impression you couldn't change the code at all - in fact, I'm fairly certain you can't even get hold of the binaries, meaning you're totally reliant on their services for the continuation of your mud. If they shut down, your mud is dead. If they raise their prices, you have to pay more, or your mud is dead. If you have a disagreement with them and they ban you, your mud is dead. And so on.

There's also the issue of changes to the mud. If you're running a Smaug, ROM, LPmud, etc, and you want to implement a specific feature, you can do so (or get someone else to do it for you). But with mudmaker, the changes are outside of your control - the best you can do is try to convince them to add what you want.
