It has recently been publicized that the original creator of the Skyblock map, an innovation that forever changed the game of Minecraft and massively contributed to its success, is fighting an ongoing legal battle with Microsoft over the rights to the name Skyblock and is simply requesting that studios who sell skyblock-related maps on the marketplace do not falsely claim to be the "Original Skyblock". This simple, reasonable request has been met with enormous legal backlash from Microsoft, who are using their almost endless resources to beat down the little guy and continue making literally millions of dollars off of skyblock content on the marketplace. This disgusting greed is completely inconsistent with Minecraft's values and sets a precedent for other creators that they do not own their content, thereby significantly damaging the community as a whole. Minecraft would not exist without its loyal community and to see Microsoft steamrolling this amazing game in order to squeeze every last drop of cash out of it is really sad for me to see. Please support Noobcrew's incredibly reasonable request and do not ruin the greatest game on the planet!
