I don't think you understand what I am trying to get across.
This isn't about previous cases where this is illegal, because I agree. P1999 is possibly illegal.
What you need to understand, is this doesn't change anything. You want the players to 'look at the log in their own eye before point out the splinter in others' that's cool and all, but why should they? *We are ALL* committing the crime of "playing illegally". That's a given. That's the only way this server could exist, is the fact that...well, it exists and we play on it.
What players are griping about, is inequalities / rule breaking WITHIN the sandbox.
You want us to find sources or previous cases of law where an EMU like p1999 has won the case. That might not exist. That doesn't prove you right to question our "hypocrisy" because we are NOT being hypocrites! If there was a rule in P1999 that said "you are not allowed to play here" then yes, yes we are all indeed hypocrites. But there is no such rule. Again, you need to read my post about

So Sony might as well be an entity like the Emperor of Everquest (including P1999) while this is only ONE of the many towns. If Sony decides to squash our town, then we all lose. Then so be it. But during that time where we are all a part of this community, we will do whatever we can to make it a place that we can all enjoy. If this includes pointless witchhunts or asking for harder punishments for the cheaters, then it's within our right to do so. We aren't forcing anyone to do it, merely asking.

What we do in p1999 is our actions. We are abiding by p1999 'laws' and we are only looking at p1999 'laws'. None of us are talking about Sony's 'laws'.
What you need to understand is you aren't playing devil's advocate, you are just creating a diversion.
