The lawsuit is over IP theft, not anything related to payments.

This is about THJs massive success.

It has literally 10x the active pop of their big TLP launch, and literally every video on youtube about Fangbreaker was: "Fangbreaker or THJ: The choice is obvious THJ"

This is the "harm" that is being claimed was done.

Yes, but the payments are highly relevant in the case because it's very useful to be able to show they are profiting off your IP

yeah but I'm just saying that the reason for the lawsuit isnt because they had a donation system it was because THJ was huge.

That's the same reason P99 got hit with one too.

I am defending the honor of the EQ community.

I don’t care because I don’t play, but I wouldn’t be talking too much smack about Daybreak on the off chance their staff ever check here (most likely as a guest)

Doesn’t matter the company, if the wrong person feels insulted they might try to retaliate in some way. No reason to poke the bear, so to speak

But again, I dun care bc it doesn’t effect me

It's right in the introduction.

"The Heroes' Journey" ("THJ") that
brazenly copies Daybreak's copyrighted game content, circumvents Daybreak's
technological protection measures, dilutes Daybreak's famous EVERQUEST mark,
and generates revenue through a thinly-d isguised "donation" system. THJ requires
users to download and modify Daybreak's legitimate EverQuest client software, th

Apparently search dont work on PDFs with web browsers.

But where in that text is P99 doing anything different?

It was the Fangbreaker flop, with THJs massive success, that triggered this.

They lost money on Fangbreaker, because people were playing THJ.

There's loads of videos on youtube about it.

That's what is "irreparable harm" as claimed in the suit.

If this was over the donation system, it would be “disgorgement of profits.”

You want to blame people, and not greedy corperations that just buy IPs and lock them down and fuck them up... blame the youtubers too while you're at it.

Seems similar to what WoW did before copying the Estralium or whatever that private server was

Step 1: shut down the private server through cease and desist

Step 2: copy it and release their own (this one became their official classic WoW server)

So it seems like the next logical step is for Daybreak to copy THJ and release a custom server of their own exactly like it?

Ill bet you a million dollars everyone who works at daybreak has a character on THJ.

I'm sure even they are bummed about this.

they'd be more bummed from a class action lawsuit with everyone that owns stock in the holding company that owns the IP, and everyone at daybreak getting fired for being incompetent idiots.

a firm would take that case for free because they get 80% of the payout if it happens

i was arguing about this shit with that retard in RnF a couple weeks ago

the same logic applies to p99, you can argue that it's creating shareholder value by being a pipeline to the actual product but have fun explaining it in court filings vs digital ambulance chasers

If it's not a publicly traded company then the number of people who are going to own part of the holding company is likely very small and a majority are likely corporate insiders.

If it's not a publicly traded company

it is though, it's listed on the NASDAQ Stockholm for 13 Krona(?) a share
Enad Global 7 AB is a Swedish video game holding company based in Stockholm.

they've been public since since Enad Global bought Daybreak in 2020

the holding company has institutional investors, prolly pension funds in Stockholm and small cap ETFs

pretty sure i could buy this shit OTK if i wanted to, it's a real company in the real world where real laws matter lol, i don't understand why people can't wrap their head around this shit.
