I'm not sure what your point is. No one - certainly not me - ever said the folks behind X1 aren't thieves. My point was that Andy Mahood doesn't know whether they're thieves or completely innocent. I just think he ought to have done a bit of research and found out exactly what they're accused of (contrary to what his article says no one ever accused them of stealing all the stuff that's in their expansion) and what they are actually guilty of. What he's done is post rumour and innuendo rather than hard facts. While it's nice to see the rumours in print so that everyone can see that there might be something that deserves looking into, I think it would have been nicer to get some hard facts in print, such as what was stolen and who X1 cheated. It's not like that info is unknown - I know at least two people (one who was - perhaps still is - a member of this community) whose work was lifted by X1 and who received not even a mention in the expansion's readme file.
