Is it possible to get a hold of the server source code so one may have the opportunity to try and create a unique and fully functional world? There's lot's of things going wrong with my world and I can't really understand it since I know nothing of how it's build and how the structure is. Currently I have the problem that all the towns have lost their names and I can't access them do change nor delete them. Also, I wish to check if it's possible to arrange my own structure on the server, for how to handle skills, buildings and so on, or will it collide with how the client is built?

I've signed you up for the coder's group now, so read through that stuff and you'll get an idea of the approach to take if you wanna get involved with coding the game.

Getting access to the source code is, by necessity because of the nature of the game and the game dev process here overall, not something that happens easily. Only a few ppl have it, and i know all of them personally.

The sourcecode for the game is a valuable asset, and could open up possibilities for many horrendous exploits if it became widely distributed, so we have to be very careful about giving access to it. Open-source is a great thing in general and can work for certain types of game, but it would not work for this one.

I understand how limiting not having sourcecode can be for developing your world & gameplay ideas, but for now you will have to perservere within the limited systems that are available, and in the meantime - hanging about regularly, learning about the worlds, the game & the people in it, and perhaps proving your worth with a little arcade game or something might lead to something more interesting..

Hmm, I'll see if I can get around and make an arcade game or similar then.
