You should not make a RO server if:

-You want to feel appreciated
-You can't handle "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation
-You don't realize that you can never win: it's always your fault
-You can't stand being labeled corrupt when a player shares any disagreement with you
-You can't tolerate that 95% of all GM applicants are incompetent
-You are only making a clone/similar copy of another existing server

-After reading this thread you wonder what the point of making a server is then.

Old game is old.

Nah, people need to keep making s*** servers. Everything's a learning experience; wheter the staff of a particular server mature and grow up, or their players begin to see the mistakes people keep repeating, and possibly make their own, sucessful server with the knowledge they've gained. Diamonds in the rough, I suppose; the density of crap actually makes what good servers there are shine even more brightly.
For the love of god, people, stop posting topics about recruiting staff on this forum, or indeed any forum. If you really feel the need to publicize the fact you're incapable of running your own server, and as such, must rely on someone you know nothing about as a crutch, be prepared to deal with the consequences, as people who go deliberately looking for GM positions are most likely as dumb as the inept server owner in question, if not moreso.

People offering paid services may or may not be screwing you over, depending on the product. Web designers? There's quite a good few out there; many take time to do their work, and charge quite a bit as a result. Just be sure you're not getting someone elses' website, rebranded for quick cash. If you hire someone to do things such as install customs for you, give up running a server. You're wasting time and letting someone take advantage of your stupidity.

Do not make a server unless you got tons of patience

That's more of a guide to the Internet than RO pservers

-If you can't handle the people who say your server is corrupted when it usually isn't
-If you can't defend for your server from predators known as the outlawed players
-If you can't take on threats from players who want to close the server down for their own mistakes/dislikes
-If you can't hire people who will actually help the server instead of destroying it

Great advice from top to bottom, here!
From Alexander the grammarian; To refrain from fault-finding, and not in a reproachful way to chide those who uttered any barbarous or solecistic or strange-sounding expression; but dexterously to introduce the very expression which ought to have been used, and in the way of answer or giving confirmation, or joining in an inquiry about the thing itself, not about the word, or by some other fit suggestion.

Don't make an RO server if you haven't played a RO private server(especially RMS Test Server)
