In the original post you quoted, my analogy was that both are easily fixed (restore credits, agree to comply with Synozeer's voting rules), incur no cost to Medievia, and I imagine would:
1) Get people talking about Medievia in a positive light.
2) Remove ammunition from their detractors.
3) Fortify their legal position (re: credits) by reducing copyright infringement concerns.
(Their stance would remain that they are a DIKU derivative by the letter of the law, but that the license is unfair, unenforcable, or whatever. This is what they're saying now anyway.)
I don't understand why a PR director would oppose either of those steps from just a cost/benefit analysis, let alone the fact that proper crediting of creators is consistent with professional ethics in any field.
