the_logos will become famous soon enough
All I'll say in this thread is this:
1. Money can affect gameplay in any MUD. There are few to no MUDs in which it can be said that money cannot affect gameplay. That the money is being paid to an admin or another player is pretty irrelevant. Gameplay is affected either way, and that seemed to be the core of your concern.

2. There are a billion features or lack of features that might be interesting to players. The ability to pay to compensate for a insufficient free time is one of them. So is having or not having Geomancers. I totally understand that you personally might prefer to see one of those as a searchable field vs. another one, but that's just a personal opinion, with all due respect. I've seen a lot of claims by those who like to attack us that lots of players would like to see a listing that designates games where payments might allow one to skip tedium, but they're also never able to demonstrate that it's anyone but a handful of people who do care.

In any case, thanks for your post and your reasonable attitude.
