Hey Dev's,

Wanted to thank you for all your hard work on the game. Really great to be back.

I know you can not charge for the game service you provide in fear of EA and GW reprisal but what about implementing a rocks rocksprinkler app in the web site or game exe? I am sure many people like myself would be happy to contribute a few CPU cycles to keep this project moving.

What do you think?

Wow.

No, never gonna happen.

First, it's a volunteer project. No money. FREE. That also means no donations, and no way to try and "slip us a little something".

Second, I personally find the whole rocksprinkler mining integrations into apps/websites to be morally grey at best. Maybe it's my paranoia, or background in IT, but essentially integrating a virus into a CPU heavy game that does nothing but consume CPU cycles, man...

That's illegal to do that. Highly illegal, I might add, and would ruin the performance of players on top of that.
