Now that Ranks and stats will be included, I think that the server's should have to get a license from the dev team, I was one of the people really put off by PR when they did it, but in the long run doing it that way REALLY ensures the servers are run by quality people and the game is played the right way.

I don't want to see a server set up for stats padding like in 2142 so people can rank up faster.

And if a server admin wants to do server-side modding they can set a password on their server.

This would allow the devs much more control over their game and make sure it's played the correct way.

(Also wouldn't have to deal with the Wolf Server always showing 20 players or so )

I know some people are going to be put off by this but really, it doesn't affect the players at all, it really only affects server admins since they are the only ones who have to make a choice or go through any extra work to get FS working.
