basescu Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) If you haven't seen the previous thread about the matter then take heed: MERP (Middle Earth Roleplaying Project), one of the biggest and certainly one of the most ambitious Skyrim mods out there has recently received a Cease and Desist letter from Warner Brothers Entertainment requesting the mod team to stop all development on the mod because they see the mod as potential competition against their own games. You might say "What can man do against such reckless hate?" well I say "Ride out and meet them!" The mod team is backed by a lawyer who works for an organisation that provides legal assistance to Fanfiction named "Organisation for Transformative Works" and they think the mod team has a fair chance at winning! They also need YOUR help, that's right YOUR help! You can aid the cause by going here and signing the petition http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/save-merp-from-corporate-greed.html , spread the word on twitter, like these Facebook pages http://www.facebook.com/ToSaveMerp and http://www.facebook.com/MiddleEarthRoleplaying and finally like the comments posted by MERP fans on popular Lord of the Rings Youtube clips. The team will also be hosting a promotional video with the intention of further spreading the word! Until then, light the beacons, spread the word ,sign the petition and most of all don't lose hope because there's some good in this world and it's worth fighting for!
