The Billing Server is a server that is separate from ASSS that keeps track of player's passwords and handles chat channels.
One biller can be shared between many game servers. This makes chat channel and inter-zone private messaging a desirable feature of a biller. More importantly billers can contain a ban system that allow one ban to effect all zones (called a netban).
