Well, my software was stolen from me by Ivan who wrote his own name prominently over ours. On top of that, many features from my MUD, NiMUD, have found their way into countless other MUDs without any credit given. Furthermore, my source code - the source code that shows the historic connections between The Isles, OLC, and more of its contemporaries, have been systematically removed thereby creating a situation where it appears that others wrote OLC unless you dig into the web archive or waltz around on Usenet archives. This is obscuring the truth and is done by people like KaVir.

And it is the responsibility of a party to enforce their own copyright protections, not that of the government or anyone else. If it goes unenforced, oh well, it ain't the first time.

Though it may appear KaVir has fans and supporters here (ie: an illusion is created thereof), talking to people on MUDs themselves has revealed to me a dislike and distrust for Kavir and his bullying.
