WAIT! C&D Already?! (Or was that a joke?)  
And the Mac version is getting an error already… Please be too late… Why am I so slow?

Glad to see someone got what I was saying. Thanks.
 
@TheLoneLampman  
I stopped arguing with Tex 20 comments ago, what are you yelling at me for.
 
By the way, I think you have that a bit backwards. What makes heated debates unpleasant is if people take it personally and start exchanging insults, snide remarks, and other such things, not the argument itself.

Anything that was worth saying has been said already and any anyone willing to wade through the past 220 comments can draw their own conclusions on the matter.

There’s nothing either of you are going to say that’s going to stop the other from repeating this whole thread over and over. So stop it, NOW.
 
I don’t want to see anything else out of either of you on the topic of copyright laws or morality of Hasbro or the morality of the C&D… and don’t whine or do other childish “But he started it!” bullshit.
 
It’s over, got it?
 
Now how about actually commenting about the new game or the image itself?

Duck - Quacks like a duck, takes bait like a fish

@TexasUberAlles  
What part of his argument regarding legal stuff is he wrong about? He’s saying that they have the legal right to shut down projects that use their ip, but that he doesn’t disagree that it’s right just because it’s legal.
 
The other part has to do with the claim that Hasbro must shut them down or risk losing their copyright, which he is correct in claiming is a false statement. That’s trademark, not copyright.
 
“trick the next M6 into thinking they can make another project like this and get away with it, when, well, it’s kindasorta obvious that they can’t”
 
Uh, you mean like the people who just released this game did? Or the artists behind 99.9% of the images on this site that technically violate copyright that are getting away with it?

Let’s just agree to disagree
 
So… just let the crazy person keep calling anyone he disagrees with “evil” and “shitty” and “immoral” and “Satan”, and let him keep baldly stating legally incorrect mumbo jumbo without refuting it, then? That doesn’t exactly sound like “agreeing to disagree”. The wishful thinking he’s passing off as legal knowledge here is dangerous, and it’s the sort of I-want-it-so-it-must-be-true nonsense that’s going to trick the next M6 into thinking they can make another project like this and get away with it, when, well, it’s kindasorta obvious that they can’t. It doesn’t set a very good moderation precedent to let someone pitch a hissy fit at being called on the legal misinformation they’re spreading until a Mod steps in and fires the STOP THAT cannon, then letting them keep doing it anyway. If we’re both getting told to STFU or GTFO, is it too much to ask that it actually get enforced on both of us? He’s still in here spouting the same legal delusions and calling anyone he disagrees with “evil”, he’s just not directing it solely at me any more. Bust us both out of the thread, for crying out loud.

Obviously.
 
But the reason I called it a “moral claim” because it’s generally understood that, even in our glorious and wonderful capitalist society, certain things cannot be bought or sold.

@Draco_2k  
OH.  
Well they did pay for it. I can assure you that they aren’t just drawing and animating out of the goodness of their heart. They got bills to pay to and playing ball with Hasbro McMoneybags will help them more than any moral claim.

@TyroneBiggums  
I dunno. What else do you call it?
 
If there’s one thing about intellectual property that makes sense, it’s the certain… something… that people who came up with the idea have to it.
 
Think what you will, but they came with this stuff. Hasbro’s CEOs didn’t.
