+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> #And why people would pay for your service!?
+</I>&gt;<i> #It isn't a easy thing But then, because of the way this license

+</I>&gt;<i> up their own game that's exactly like mine, and charge people to use
+</I>&gt;<i> it just like I am doing... So if all of the above is correct... what

+</I>&gt;<i> all of the &quot;derivitive works&quot; that are packaged with it as a whole),
+</I>&gt;<i> and run the game service themselves... basically, taking me out of the
+</I>&gt;<i> loop entirely.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> #Well, the code is GPL, but the GFX, SFX, History, and so aren't GPL
+</I>&gt;<i> so you can't copy them. ( isn't this true? )
+</I>&gt;<i> #Someone don't steal but derive the work, if this happens you have two
+</I>&gt;<i> options:
+</I>&gt;<i> #a) Forgive your project and join then
+</I>&gt;<i> #b) Use their modifications ( that are GPL ) to make yours better. If
+</I>&gt;<i> I'm completely off here, I appologise. I'm extremely new to the whole
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;open source&quot; thing...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> # Well, Open Source is like Fire for the Primitive mens. Someone scary
+</I>&gt;<i> and others just get hot near it.
