It hasn't changed anything yet; I think Rogean chimed in on an earlier thread similar to this one and said that it has no effect on p99.

This doesn't affect us. We don't make any money or charge our players, and venture capitalists only care about money. They wouldn't benefit.

I've always called bullshit on Rogean's defense concerning the legalities of Project 1999. It has nothing to do with whether this server makes money - it's about whether it detracts business away from the live paid version of the game. Hundreds of Warcraft servers were shut down every year, and they were not making any money by hosting them. Blizzard is still relying on subscription memberships, and free servers obviously take that away.

The reality is that Smedley and SOE don't see Project 1999 as a threat to their business model, and therefore don't waste their time pursuing legal action.

Now if Rogean can show us a signed letter by Smedley's accountants saying otherwise, then I'll happily retract my statement.
