    Someone should let all those people know they got scammed. And use their comments as evidence. This is so obviously more than just stealing a name.

    also a "Minecraft" is a ship that was used in WW2 to collect sea mines.

    it can also be used as a generic term for any game that includes mining and crafting

    Why doesn't Noobcrew make his own Skyblock mod, and make it much better than all the already existing versions out there? Like multiple maps and variations and stuff?

    Unfortunately in the US, corporations are treated better than its own citizens. You can get away with anything if you have money, even down to the smallest crime or dispute. In this case Microsoft's heavy influence and likely monetary gains from Minecraft marketplace is the reason why they won't let Mojang take any action as they see many businesses (fake ones) making money and if Crew wins then it hurts Microsoft (but it doesnt but then Microsoft will do anything to nickel and dime you to death).

    Crew's case isn't alone, there's countless other people who want their work to be recongnized and protected.

    Noobcrew Did you by any chance put this under public domain or fair use. Because if its under public domain then that means NOBODY can claim ownership of it meaning that under public domain you can get rid of all these greedy people since they're claiming it as their own which is illegal under public domain, though under public domain you can't claim copyright over it, however you might be able to be one of those rare cases where they do let you have copyright, but that one will be a very tough battle and one that only you can fight

    As far as I know, he already has a version on the marketplace it's just that people would rather install an add-on with 40000 downloads over one with close to a 1000. They basically stole is product but beat him to market which in the business world results in the og creator losing out.

    Didn't see this until I came back to the community a while ago (+ MisterEpic's recent video). I will not allow my goat Noobcrew to be tarnished by some ripoffs (ok I'll allow hpxl for now...)
