Deathwing is on a distinguished road
If anyone lets what Aardwolf is doing - giving a tiny reward in return for help with server costs - stop them from releasing anything, then I think, frankly, that they shouldn't be in the "community" in the first place. They are not charging to play, they are not blatantly selling powerful items in-game, they are not forcing players to pay to keep powerful items- Only a simple gift that does not affect game balance and which could probably be earned faster without donating is given.

If you can truly say that Aardwolf's activities are on the same scale as those of Vryce, which were pretty much the last nail in the coffin for the Diku team's contributions, then maybe you have a case. But I don't think that can be said.

Maybe if the Diku team hadn't basically vanished from the face of the Earth, things would be different, I don't know. And yes, we could try to email them (again), but is it really our responsibility to force creators to defend their own license?

Maybe we should be debating that instead.
