@antago in 2001 servers were not sold. Stefan allowed people to make servers but wouldn't put it on the start up menu without approval of testers/himself.
I released the server Shaded Legend with Tyriel (he used a different account name before SL was released) on 03/2001 on the start up menu and did not ever have to pay.

I really doubt you opened a server on 03/2001 considering we didn't launch Graal2k1 until mid February 2001, and to my knowledge there were certainly not other servers especially not two weeks after we released this version. Please, if you're going to give specific dates to everything—make sure you got your facts straight.
You had to own a gold account to release a server at the time as well, which was pretty much the only perk to owning a gold account if I recall correctly, and if I especially recall correctly, new servers were not allowed nor did they start start popping up until later 2001 (or early 2002) when the feature was made available. These details I am hazy on as I officially quit my position as Game Master in mid March or April.

Later in June of 2001 I became a "global" but official title was Accounts Administrator and then by late summer of '01 to '03 I was Game Master "with" unixmad but for NA (North America). Which didn't make sense because unixmad basically just spoke to me on ICQ to get updated on what was going on once a month and did not actually do any labor or assist at all. A couple times Stefan, unix, and me had to speak on the phone but at that time it was very expensive so we limited our phone conversations.

I'll assume this may be true. Your other dates on things are very off, however.
