I agree with you that the server is great and we owe a ton of respect and thanks to the devs. Even so I find the "don't like it, move on" school of thought to be pretty weak.
While the server is obviously their's the concept cannot work without a community. I think our role as players in the community means we have an obligation to submit feedback on how the server is run and the rules that govern it. The moment we agree to everything the GMs say without feedback is when it's no longer a community. Don't confuse this with complete rebellion and disrespect against the GMs; there is of course a happy medium.
While I feel the devs have done an incredible job here and ultimately have the final say, it's frustrating to see some of the results of the recent cheating problems. It seems to me the community as a whole agrees the punishment on the cheaters should have been harsher. Personally, I'm upset a list of the cheaters wasn't published. I feel they owe us that much.
