Problem one, as far as live goes for this warehoused IP they are locked into company-defined goals, which includes making sure new expansions get consumed. Modding would interfere with that already modest market share strategy.

If they permitted modding on the tlp's, back to the problem one.

And now we know, if they let the emu community get anything farther than museum piece status, they might hit you real hard.

Sell access to mods give devs 10-30% and now you can fire your whole dev team.

There also seemed to be some misconceptions that the court was sympathetic to THJ due to the stipend and denial to keep the investigation private. This was made apparently wrong by the courts actions yesterday denying THJ's request for more time to prepare a defense. 8/12 is when we will hear just how fucked they are, it is in the interest of the entire EQEmu community that they are painlessly put down.

Bro, you know that THJ intends on taking this to court and hired a top tier IP lawyer right? Do you know what the ENTIRE premise of these retards defense is going to be?

"LOOK AT THAT EQEMU COMMUNITY IT HAS EXISTED FOR 15 YEARS AND DBG DID NOTHIGN TO PROTECT THEIR ASSETS FROM THEM"

That is going to be their defense. They did this as a cash grab at the expense of everything.

If what you are saying is true, I hope they retire happily and never make another game for loser gamers ever again.
