< Here >.Apparently, someone filed a patent in '96 that describes how multiple users could interact in a dynamic 3-D space. & apparently that's enough to file a lawsuit. The thing that kills this should be that if you're filing suit about someone violating your design of MMOGs, shouldn't you go after the most obvious target first?
