Your understanding of the case is fundamentally flawed, not some minor detail. Not-for-profit vs Nonprofit is a minor irrelevant detail. It's not a lack of self-awarness. It's that these things aren't the same.

Nope. This is GG even if THJ is for profit. DBG currently can't go against what SOE/DBG explicitly did in the past. Imagine Person A has a bike. Person A decides to allow others to use the wheels of said bike. Person B and C take and use those wheels. Later on Person A sells the bike to Person...

One Is relevant to the case. The other is a red herring. The distinction between Not-for-profit and Non-profit is largely a tax thing and not relevant to a copyright claim or an irreparable harm claim. The fact you don't understand this just furthers the point i was making.

Yes, taxes and who they serve is the diff. This is just pedantry. Non-profits are tax exempt. Not for profits usual aren't. Giving benefits for donations still doesn't make you for profit. That's the point. Daybreak alleges users aren't allowed to display copyrighted material without going...

What determines if something is non-profit isn't about how much money is made, but how the money is spent. There are thousands of non-profit charities that pay employees or give rewards for donations. You say it's not a complicated case but you're talking about Daybreak mismanagement of their...

You make money on EQ through RMT and your mad that THJ is basically an anti-RMT server. That's crazy because even DBG doesn't allege that second part. Explain the Daybreak lawsuit to us. Because i don't think most people here understand what Daybreak is claiming. Also guessing you didn't...

Selo and Vaniki where half baked trash servers, could've maybe worked if the Dev team wasn't lazy. Phinny and Mischief were only cool because of the playerbase, the dev team had to be dragged into do them. The only Dev that even half tried and gave us AoCs/the random loot buckets now works for...

I'm bored today so let me break this down why this ruling is bullshit. A "Default" Judgement is one when the defendants don't show up to court, when people don't show up to defend themselves the courts often just accept any claim by the plaintiff as true, even when it's explicitly false. Alyson...

It's crazy the mental gymnastics you guys are going through to convince yourself a bunch of 2 digit IQ diversity hires are playing 4d Chess.

Do you know what a Default Judgement is? Can you find Alyson Reeves and prove this person exists?

Again, unfortunately for Daybreak cucks that's not how the law works.

Fear Propaganda.

It's really not that much to form an LLC. When it comes to fan fiction/servers ect copyright law is really far more on their side than people are lead to believe. It's really hard for the copyright holder to get anything meaningful out of them other than a shutdown of the server.

The AI really only looks at the DBG complaint since THJ hasn't submitted their defense yet, so the AI doesn't consider potential counter arguments. For example in regards to Daybreaks irreparable harm claim, if you ask about the defense offering up a counterclaim that says daybreaks losing subs...

Daybreak is basically guaranteed to lose money because of this lawsuit. THJ has an LLC that they will simply go Chapter 7 on if they lose, they simply haven't taken in enough that DBG will get enough $$ for it to be worth it. The general sentiment seems to be fuck daybreak regardless of if they...

DBG and THJ agreed to give THJ an extension on time to respond, this allows THJ to stay online longer and goes against all the actions DBG has previously taken, makes it looks like DBG now wants to cut a deal.

Yeah i don't think those are the "Macros" he normally uses.

Do you think DBG is aware they linked to a creator that has videos on how to download and use MQ or how he's "quitting" or boycotting EQ for the 9th time.

Highly. Your honor this YT comment says he beat up 3 Navy Seals at the same time!

It doesn't fucking matter if they did unless Daybreak can establish THJ doesn't have a license to do what they're doing. The EULA is too ambiguous to establish that. Players have asked DBG games to let them know what makes mods in EQ okay and what doesn't for decades, DBG refuses to answer...

I actually didn't know that. But you're missing the point. Daybreak does know this. Daybreak intentionally lied in the lawsuit and said they couldn't get Screenshots in game of Vox/Naggy ect. But at the same time they submitted a SS of Vox, Naggy and CT with the changed models. Then they paid an...

Nah Daybreak seems fucked they seem to think THJ is going to mount a Fair Use defense. The problem is THJ is only a copyright violation if the EULA is enforceable in the way Daybreak thinks it is. It's not. Daybreak claims modifying game files to connect to private servers is a violation of the...

You're using a Mod of a Mod. This is THJ Vox

Daybreak actually originally submitted this as Vox in the Lawsuit. For those that don't know this is THJs version of Vox. So Daybreak is lying intentionally when they say they had to scrape Youtube videos to get Screenshots of Vox. They 100% have employees playing on THJ and are cappable of...

No it's a joint agreement. Between the two parties. It's literally THJ going see Daybreak we aren't a for profit company making millions of your IP. For those that haven't playing THJ this 100% a false statement. You get 1 free weekly respec and make enough plat to respec in like 10 mins. I'm...

Yes, Ubisoft currently has one launched against them for The Crew in a similar case regarding their ambiguous and allegedly misleading EULA.

In the context it sure is. Almost all the work THJ put into the game is transformative. New Combat systems, New Raid encounters, New instance systems, New item systems, New travel. All of this done to Transform the game into a much more single player friendly experience. Granted i still think...

Nah, Keep reading. Daybreak can challenge that. That would never fly.

It's in the court ordered joint agreement that allows THJ to stay online during the court case.

That's a full retarded take because all the donations they're receiving and not using for legal defense/servers are going into an escrow account that they will NEVER get to fucking touch if that were the case.

Not arguing that what THJ is doing is Fair Use. But it's certainly a defense THJ could try and how much work THJ put into transforming the work is 1 of criteria for Fair Use. https://www.copyright.gov/fair-use/

The EQ IP.

If THJ argues fair use it will absolutely matter how much work they put into it.

You're constantly taking a position on copyright law that only a corporate cocksucking lawyer would take. You act is if any use of copyright material is a violation, you act as if everything within the game is copyrighted, you act as if any claim made by Daybreak is true without evidence. Then...

Sir the gay Lions are free.

The more fucked up thing is they convinced people piracy/copyright violations = theft.

So THJ is liable for EQEMU now? Daybreak has officially licensed p99 which requires you to use EQEMU. I would love to see some proof of this, because in the complaint Daybreak linked to some Githubs. Some of those don't exist and the ones that do aren't linked to the defendants in the case.

I never said it was fair use. Implied License is a form of permitted use.

Ask the Yerm he is the one that brought it up. But it is something DBG falsely claimed in the court docs. They didn't release EQ. They released a derivative product, that uses EQ IP. This is actually the part your argument falls apart if they end up being non-profit. DBG has given explicit...

EQEMU created the code. That's where it came from. It's entirely legal for them to do so. It's existed for 20+ years. It's entirely legal to make EMUs so long as you don't reverse engineer the code or use it to play pirated games. Strangely THJ instructs players to download legal copies of EQ...
