The article's thrust is WHETHER or not the builder will get sued by CBS or Viacom. Neither party has actually made any effort to sue the builder. It is, in essence, a rather pointless piece of journalism. I could have posted a similar article on the web asking whether or not Prince Charles might have dinner with me tonight. That is a far cry from an article that states that the crowned prince actually had dinner with me. A little to early to get feathers ruffled over the hyperlinked article. Perhaps a deep breath is in order. The “article” about the Enterprise-D star trek “lawsuit” in the hyperlink is really sort of a non-news item.

I wonder how many of these sims that have stolen IP rights to use names like star trek, star wars, gor and other names stolen from movies or books, will get the true legal owners of these names and themes to come after the Lindens. If this was to happen, either SL would finally collapse or another round of content being deleted. Better grab a copy of one of the copybot viewers and make an alt. So that you can back up all of those star trek uniforms and star wars armor on your hard drive while you can. If you bought it, it is yours. Don't let some pin head dork with coke bottle glasses at LL steal it from you Right all of these little pin heads on their witch hunts in SL looking for copy botted items fail to see the big picture.

This is over a ship that looks like the Enterprise that was built and displayed on you-tube. Nothing was said about it beind sold. I wonder how long until CBS sets their sights on SL and goes after Linden Labs for all of the trekie sims? http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/blogs/thr-esq/will-cbs-sue-over-awesome-26059 Hmm here is another VW that is a multiplayer sandbox that is getting in legal trouble for copying Star trek.

They know they will be sued by a lot of people if they cut them off all at once. Especially those who have a lot of sims. So alienate, make them leave, keep their money with no refund. There at least refunded players their last month of purchases. Less users when things go south, the better. They know what they're doing is unprofitable and are likely losing money on operations alone. that or they're just stupid.

I hope SL manages to keep going, but am not hopeful. They keep making decisions that antagonise their existing user base, in order to attract some mythical new users who never appear.

The scenery is fantastic, though if you don't speak Korean, interaction is odd at times. @II Singh: Doomed is going PG?
