  I hope turtle open sources

Have private servers shared their work at all? I have a feeling that everyone is redoing everyone's work and keep it private out of rivalry.

I was involved in another mmo's private server scene- what happened there was the source code for servers would get released after a server is taken down (whether by DMCA, or just pure infighting), then people build on top of that, then repeat. I would say a vast majority of the source code is not released to the public.

Payment to devs could be considered profit, but profit for the actual people, not the project as a whole and its owners. Also, remember, it's still work, even if it's work on a game. There are reasons not to call pay you get from work "profit"
