What makes PKH so special to you?

We've had so much negativity in this section recently, so why not have some positivity?
To me it's the community.
We've got our inside jokes and our fun together. Other servers may have that too, but here on PKH people also seem to make lifelong friends that even go beyond being RSPS/OSRS buddies. Also because PKH has been running for so long, some people have literally grown up and matured with the game.
But there's also another community aspect that isn't talked about a lot anymore. Our (old?) slogan: The community driven Runescape Private Server.
Even though we sometimes like to act as if it's not true, we really do have more community involvement in most decisions than other RSPSes.
On another server, owners/developers just add whatever the hell they want (or can copy-paste and slightly alter from source leaks). Here we vote on content, even if it means PKH isn't churning out new content like other servers, we still ultimately get what we want.
The same goes for the staff team. They're pretty much "elected" individuals and are still members of the community. Some servers put their staff on a pedestal and let them get away with anything. On some servers the staff is just whoever brings IRL cash in. On others, it's based on whether or not you're best buds with the owner or staff manager. But not on PKH.
Here, every member of the community can have their say and their opinion about anything, even if it gets met with criticism. As long as it's not a flamefest it's allowed to exist and gets taken into account. I think this really does show the integrity this server has. The content doesn't even really matter to me as long as the integrity is there. It's the community with all the nice people, rivalry and degens that makes PKH so special.
We're like a dysfunctional family - dysfunctional, but still fam.
Anyways, that's what I think. What about you guys?
