I don't think the Gm commands are a problem as long as the owner checks the logs every day.
What you just wrote here doesn't really make you leave a private server, cuz you probably wouldn't start playing at all :D.
My reason for leaving a server: dumb gms/incompetent admin.. alot of server owners today can barely set up monstersetbase.. can't event manage to change quest drop rates or stuff like that.. and the problem is that they can't even admit it.. if you offer to help or something they just laugh in your face and say they already know and promise to make certain changes.. wich never happen.
As for server wipes, i actually like them. I've always played low-rate servers.. max 30x.. and server wipes are always fun because of the competition.. fighting for best monster spots, first castle siege, first resets.. stuff like that.. but ofc.. server wipes after 6 months or more, and planned.. not random.
I don't really enjoy donations either, not that i wouldn't pay, cuz I would if I really enjoyed the server, but it's no fun being op either. I think a good server could raise money from donations by offering almost nothing.. people should just think they support the server and keep it online as long as possible.. but that's up to the community, and mu community is not one of the brightest.
