I was going to post this in the other thread but didn't want to be shunned for being off-topic and such, and as someone mentioned, here's a new thread for this...
If what was posted in the other thread is indeed true, if Aardwolf IS accepting money and IS giving in-game rewards, where's the shunning, blackballing, flaming, etc every time Aardwolf is mentioned, that other 'license breakers' get?? Call it sour grapes or tattletaling or what-have-you, but if Medievia is going to get crap EVERY TIME it's mentioned, I would think that another game doing the same thing should be treated the same.
Where's KaVir asking for code audits? Where's the removal from certain sites because of this issue? Why isn't this game being treated the way they should be treated, as another 'bad part' of the MUD community?
Ok, that's that rant, here's another..
If, in fact, the DIKU people HAVE seen Aardwolf's code and has NOT cared the least bit about the license, it being a derivative, accepting money, etc., why the hell does this even all matter anymore?? According to KaVir, and the endless links he throws out, once a derivative, always a derivative. So, no matter how much they changed their code, it will always be DIKU, no matter what the authors say. If the DIKU author doesn't care, why the hell do the rest of you care? Why is this still an issue?
