Basically, some fuckers thought they were better than me. They pissed me off, so now I'm going through the legal shit to get them fucked up.
My basis is this. Verizon, I can almost guarantee--does not allow people to run servers from their machines. Almost NO ISP, allows this. A Server is something that draws a lot of inbound traffic--exactly what this game is.
Besides that, they want to keep the name 'Nubblies' for the game. This is illegal, because 'Nubblies' is a trademark. A trademark DOES NOT have to be registered to exist (follow the second link). What it sums up to--is that there is an computer using a trademark, illegally, to host an illegal emulation of a game, and is also against the terms of service of their ISP.
My hopes are that he will have his connection completely removed. Of course, I will only proceed if he doesn't comply with the terms. The terms being, he says 'yes, i'm your bitch, i will remove the name'
Not a good move Cheeba.
