Mauvebib Swallow My Pride	They didn't claim it's made by valve. It's a parody of Half Life, why is that not allowed? -- Defeat in Detail 2 - Standalone RTS Game Planetquake.com Moddb.com

Mauvebib Swallow My Pride	I am quite unhappy that this has been banned. So it's taking the mick out of Half Life, so what? It's fair game. It's kind of a half life version of DJQuake, and how can that possibly be a bad thing? The deification of the Half Life series on this site annoys me, especially when it leads to things like this. I'm assuming a HL fanboy moderator shut it down. Would this have been shut down if it was a parody of Unreal? I doubt it. -- Defeat in Detail 2 - Standalone RTS Game Planetquake.com Moddb.com

deathmedic3rd Metal Head	Half-Life 3 : Opposing Force lol.. i think only Valve have the right to use that as a name, and they'd get sued for using the games name. also who would make a mod of copyrighted game and actually get as far to realese it without been noticed buy lawyers of said company. -- running a hot rodded mac mini

bulliz Not so good: coder/mapper/modeler/concept artist	So now you guys say it was banned because of the name?Why didnt you ban Starcraft Xel'Naga vengeance etc? Many mods have pb with copyright and you only banned this?

ambershee Nimbusfish Rawks	I think the requirement is also to have an english website anyhow.

a_llama Teh moddb llama	Listen to jackson. He's an admin, he would know why it was banned. Moddb has nothing against humorous mods, but they must follow the site's other rules.
