Don't give me any of your virtue signaling you make about the p99 agreement, that only existed for less than half of this servers lifetime.

If THJ came to an agreement with DBG then you'd be like, "That's good and fair"

But they couldn't. So you're like this:

And you want ritual sacrifices to be made.
Dude...it's pretty clear what's needed to have Daybreak not come after you. The P99 agreement is basically the framework for what Daybreak will allow (look at their negotiations with Quarm, Quarm basically has the same framework about content, expansion, and not-monetizing as P99 does now and is still running).

The ENTIRE community is aware of this. Everyone knows what Daybreak's concerns are with respect to emulated servers. THJ made a CONCIOUS CHOICE to monetize their server and manipulate the IP in ways that go well beyond what everyone knows Daybreak is okay with.

THJ couldn't come to an agreement with Daybreak because the server and its practices were so far beyond what Daybreak is usually willing to allow. Quarm could come to an agreement because content-wise the changes to the IP were relatively minimal, Quarm agreed to remove those changes, and Quarm wasn't monetizing anything.

THJ was never going to be allowed to exist.

Oh so once again the "they are stealing too much, not stealing just enough" argument.

What a nonsensical reply. The owner of the IP has made clear what they are willing to allow third parties to do with their IP (i.e., they have made clear what they don't view as "stealing" at all). THJ blatantly chose to ignore that and got fucked for it.

They were idiots and I don't have sympathy for them when Daybreak has made completely clear what is and isn't okay for people to do with their IP.
