    Again, you are over simplifying what the kid did. He didn't just cheat, he created a video showing others how to get the cheat, install and use it. He was given the chance to take down the video, but he wouldn't. Epic can't just sit by and allow people to promote something that ruins the game...

    Someone who claims to be a copyright attorney recommends that this kid and his parents hire an attorney. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5lMFjME9qI&feature=youtu.be

    And, if a competitor tries to sabotage a game or promote others cheating in that game in order to cause monetary damages, then they would probably be the target of a law suit as well.

    My point is... that by helping to create an environment where cheating is rampant in a game (by creating videos teaching people how to cheat at the game), he could be causing financial harm to the company. And, I wouldn't fault them for trying to protect their product. I had considered trying...

    I think people are glossing over and trivializing what this kid did. He is showing people how to violate the ToS for the game and how to go about cheating in the game. This can lead to real, monetary damages for the company. This lawsuit isn't about preventing people from posting videos of...

    They gave him the opportunity to take down his video. He responded by filing a counter claim The music/entertainment industry sued lots of minors. Did you complain about that?

    Is Evil Hat Republishing TSR's Star Frontiers?

    If they update the Star Frontiers rules, I would definitely back that on kickstarter. I still have all of my original Star Frontiers hard copies. I have been thinking about breaking out the modules to convert to Starfinder. But, if they updated the Star Frontiers rules, that would be even...

    Well, I said that I hope that the lawsuits against the creators of the cheating software were successful. As for the user of the software who created a video showing how to use the cheating software, I am a bit torn. The game is "free to play," but there are also paid versions of the game. By...

    I know little about the harassment of Christine Sprankle. I don't play or follow MtG. But, it is sad that she can't just do her thing without dealing with harassment.

    Did you read the article that you linked to? It says that they are also suing the people that they believed created the cheating software.

    Hopefully the lawsuit against the authors is successful. Cheaters suck and this does ruin a game and a community.

    Gemstone Dice from Adam Hackett - 3 days remaining!

    I have backed a previous kickstarter for gemstone dice from Adam, and the dice were fantastic. I picked up 3 poly sets and an extra pair of d10 and they were all nice. I am in on this KS too: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/579878362/engraved-gemstone-dice-hematite-lapis-lazuli-and-m

    Lost Hall of Tyr (5e) Norse Myth based adventure!

    I am relatively new to, but am quite interested in Norse mythology. I have only seen a handful of adventures that are based on Norse mythology. But, when I see them, I try to back them. Here is another...

    Harassment At PaizoCon 2017

    Actually, some people will quit purchasing their products and quit supporting their kickstarters... so, bringing attention to it without pressing charges isn't a lost cause.
