Why waste money when it was just a nuisance??
wackoae 25th Jul 2008
Seriously, why do you want them to spend money when the infringement was just a nuisance that was making no money??

They had to wait until they were making money before they could sue.

I understand that everybody thinks that waiting 2 years is a long time (it is not ... if they waited 10 years, then maybe). But sometimes the legal work alone can take that long to be effective.

Instead of bitching about their lawsuit, what about looking at the fact of the case.

- The game is an exact copy of Scrabble. They even brag about it in the website.
- Even their name is a ripoff of the original.
- They were warned multiple times. This is not the 1st article about it you know.
- They are making tons of money with the game (ad revenue and game licensing). Although it is software, it is the same illegal concept as if they were making a clone of the board game and selling them a Wal-Mart.
