On the topic of free to play, I feel that by this point the game should go FTP. Badspot has moved on, but the community hasn't. I feel that if the player count does arise from the FTP platform, it would be up to the community to adopt a microtransaction standard. Games like Minecraft and Gmod have countless of servers that do charge for extra items or privileges. Badspot doesn't really profit much on this game anymore, but those who create custom content from their severs do. For somebody who wants to host a server and wish to make a few extra bucks to either keep the game alive or for other economic uses, the can add content that is only unique to their server and unavailable anywhere else, forcing players the only option to experience the content for themselves.
