Devs =/= game makers.
If you just want good games to play, then the community is what needs to make them.
Jacob does fine on the dev end of things. Too many devs tend to cause mayhem and disaster, like tGL, and according to what you yourself just said, Blockland, which is well-known, rather popular, and pay-to-play, only has 2 developers, no more.
Now, maybe once we get a large enough userbase, Jacob could do something like MisterFiber and Scott Killen did with the Minecraft mod ExtraBiomes XL, and put the working code up someplace like GitHub, and anyone who wants to make a change can submit one. I know he tried making it open source a while back, but we only had about 4 or 5 members who knew Java, and so it just didn't really work.
