Hello, I'm also an ACR member, and I have a few things to say:
1. Yes, we ripped off AC. If you didn't like that, you should not have had your code be open source in the first place. We are now abiding by the Cube license so there is nothing to say in that regard. Look at Libreoffice and Openoffice, Libreoffice "ripped off" Openoffice but Openoffice and Libreoffice have good relations with each other, they even share code every now and then. That's how open source works. Also, you can't say that you made every single line of code since you ripped off the Cube engine in the first place. So you're also ripping off Mona Lisa. And Mona Lisa is so good they keep it under constant surveillance with a sheet of bulletproof glass in the Louvre. So there.
2. It doesn't take a genius to realize why AC members hate ACR so much. The thread subject is like "lok at mah tacticool blahblah!!!" and it quickly degenerates into "fuk u fuk uuuuu y u hate acr so much u just hating u just hating >:(". I don't think anybody would respond nicely to being cussed at....
3. Its easy to complain that ACR "rips" off content, but we simply do not have enough modelers, mappers, and content creators. Also the content creators still don't know much about copyright... so its a learning process and I really can't just say do this do that because I'm not creating the content. But we are progressing quickly in the right direction, and guywarblu is creating a ton of non-ripped models, although he still has trouble with the textures. Its nice to just say "immediately become 100% original with complete original models, textures, sound, and maps" but Rome wasn't built in a day.
4. We didn't hack you. Sorry, but we just don't care that much. It would be nice to share information though since hacking attempts have been made against ACR pretty soon after AC was hacked I think.
