Don't release it to public DD. It's yours, keep it that way.
It's what makes your server / security unique from others.
Just a suggestion.

From my opinion no.
You worked a freaking lot on that backend, and even showed me something inside it. Shit it's so pro.
You should either sell it or keep it restricted to the very few people that actually knows how to handle it. ( I'm sadly not one of them though )
Well, it's really a tough decision whether to release it totally free or charge a small amount to keep part of the leechers away. I understand your reason though about wanting to release it so that you can get feedback on it and ideas for further development of it in the future.
I myself am not running ANY servers atm, even though I'd love to, but too many other things in my way currently, mostly the fact my really nice computer finally shit out and died on me and not gotten the funds back up to get another mobo yet. But I'd love to test it out myself at some point too as I'm sure besides just being handy, it'd also be a great learning experience also. And I'm pretty good at coming up with great ideas when I really put my mind to it.
Like some others have mentioned, I myself would also charge some for it, not even to make money really though (because of your main reason for releasing it) but more to keep the leechers away that don't really give 2 shits or a damn about giving there input on it or making suggestions. And I'm talking about a low cost, even maybe just $5- $10 if you actually chose to charge for it. But of course, to keep the leechers I mentioned above away and to keep people from sharing it/re-releasing it, you may consider, as others also mentioned, adding a required serial key to it. But make the program do a server check to make sure that no other Engines are currently running using that same serial key. I would almost implement that myself anyway, even if you DIDN'T end up charging any for it, as that may actually help you keep track of how many were in use.
But overall, I'd love to see this engine myself one day as at least I know that it'd be of an excellent quality seeing that it's coming from you. But even then, do definitely think it all over before deciding to release it or not. Because as I'm sure you know already, there would be as many benefits to doing so as there would be disadvantages.
You should pass it to me, so i can sell a crippled version of it to other pservers.

/end of discussion
/ close thread please.
Do whatever you want it with, personally i don't care.
Why post?
If it is feedback you want, you should give it for free.
Just my opinion.
Be suprised but alot of leechers have money.
Well for what its worth im not sure i understood half of what its surpossed to be able to do...
However just becouse the main discusion is relevant to my interests i'll give my 2 cents
You talked about wanting to release it also as a way to gain feed back as in ideas for stuff to add and things you might have overlooked could be fixed, and obviously a releasing it compleatly fee is the fastest way to get this.
However taking this place into consideration and the dislike for leaches then it would seem to annoy quite a few regulars here.
However i would personally suggest a release simply becouse could possibly help you get more and faster feed back.
The problem in a Pay to Use bases release is its few people that will use it then meaning less people to go over it and a lot of people will be satisfied to simply have it
and eventually interest from their side will fall to the point where its forgotten why its released in the first place (human nature is we forget things that loses interest)
On a side note i wonder weather it even works on out v14 based server
Couldn't help but lol.
exept for the long list of typos i made there (no excuse for that)
would you care to explain the fun?
I'm wondering whether this "project" is still alive. Has anyone any informations?
Deadly, release it , i want it :) , i`ll post my ideas ,suggestions and improvements for it.
thanks
Take a look at what he quoted in bold.
