Java is indeed one of the faster growing languages. It can definitely be called bad or crap or what ever, it is equal to any other language. It's growing so much that in the last 6 years it's had a 30% speed increase due to the updates within the language. RuneScape may take a team to develop it, but the private servers don't and hell they are doing very well. We may use the models that RuneScape develop but the server side is programmed by us completely.
