Whoa whoa whoa!  Hold it a sec.  This is their RIGHT.  They DESERVER
recognition and dough.  It would be GREAT if they got picked up or at least
noticed by a developer.

The EULA wasn't "money-hungry" -- they gotta do that stuff to protect
themselves.  Essentially, they just want to know where Qoole is going to be
used commercially, so they don't get taken advantage of.  Can you blame
'em?

Gonna go use Worldcraft?  Good idea.  You disagree with the EULA of a
kick-ass program, so you turn into a raving masochist.
