As a builder on a MUD that's intended to be pay-to-play at some point... I wouldn't mind getting paid to build. It's not something I'd like to see the free MUD's getting into, and any builder hired when they're likely to get paid should be put on probation until their work is checked out before getting the $$$.
(You also have to cope with HOW do you pay them? - The internet is a world-wide thing)
If you're going to pay builders, then coders should get something too, and maybe something for those who run BIG rp events. Equality in all things. Or you'll have well paid and happy builders, and no coders.
