If just one of these ideas or things had gotten into the game, TheManaWorld would be in huge legal trouble from any party. On top of that, we let these people get away with trying to fool us and get us into legal trouble?! Sure, some might not know about copyright laws, but it's still ridiculous that we let people get away with this with out any form of suspension or ban.
