  1. Fast forward again to August 7th, the day it all started. I got a DM from a user called Warrior Kat. At first I thought it was the usual Steam Scam that I would have trolled, however it was not that. Kat said, quote "I am a support team member as you can see of the Voidsrath server and I came across your and Blackout's illegal port of the Packman mod made by Fisk who made it for Cody. Since you both have not gotten permission from the developer and it is a ARR mod, your port is illegal and I saw you used the license of the illegal upload, this is not allowed either. Please cease development on the mod as that is respectful to Fisk and Cody". I was confused, and a little scared (After all, I never really dealt with something like this, and I'm also quite young (not as young as a 13 yr old lol)). I told them that I was sorry for any trouble, but I wanted to ask questions to know more about the situation. I asked how it was illegal, since I did make all the assets myself, and also asked that *if* I were to take it down, I could possibly ask the mod devs for permission to put it back up. I was told by Kat that it was illegal because "I did not have permission from the original creators, and that the original license is ARR", and, "I could ask Cody for you if you want and you could use the original assets, but you should remove Blackout from the project. Most likely though they will update it their selves since they're working on CC5 (CrazyCraft for 1.16.5) and just updated Recipe Scramble to 1.20.1". I asked them why I had to remove Blackout, and their reply (Which they removed in the original message now) was "Blackout was a dev for Chaos Awakens, which was a copy of AdventureKraft. I get he helped you and thats nice of him, but we don't want to associate with someone who just copies other mods.", which personally annoyed me a little. Anyways, I had contacted a friend of mine, who owns a modded Minecraft network called that he was running since 2010. I also contacted one of my IRL friends, and a mod creator called Funky Monk. I told them all the entire situation, and showed them everything. The network owner told me "you cant copyright pacman, CapCom holds the copyright to that", and,"he cant do shit as long as you coded it yourself". My IRL friend had told me "also he cant do shit cuz everything is a sopy of each other", "it isnt copyrighted", and, "he cant do jack shit". (He was wrong about the second message, but that is besides the point). Funky Monk, when I told him about it, asked me if I've ever played with The Killer Pacman, which I did. He'd also asked other stuff, like how does my mod compare to his, did I use my own assets, and after a while of chatting, he said that "You didn't steal anything. You made everything yourself. He is just being a douchebag.". He had suggested that I told FiskFille about the entire thing, to which I did. Fisk responded, asking what mod I ported. After knowing what mod it was, he said he sees no problem in it, however I had to talk with Cody. This is what I first DMed you about, if I could get in contact with Cody in some way. Anyways, I saw Kat forking the GitHub repository, and when I asked him he said "I forked the mod, so the evidence of your illegal actions was always there encase you deleted it. If you truly believe that nothing can be done about your actions due to you making it then you are very mistaken.", which I never intended on doing. After telling him I wont delete or take down anything he said he will "just ban you and report you to curseforge."(By "ban" me he meant he'll ban me from the Voidswrath discord) And so I banned him from my discord server. Now we are here.
