    There is no way in the world they'd ever release the server software, because that would allow other people to profit off their work. Also, LOL at the thought of releasing the source code. Even if they did, it would likely take years for anyone not already familiar with the project to understand it.

    In most cases, private servers result in C&Ds or lawsuits.
