As for the Hasbro arguement... they would have bought a second or a third or even a tenth liscence. Thier corporate lawyers have a better understanding both the spirity and the letter of the agreement and for a multimillion dollar company, spending an extra $60 bucks or so for another liscence isnt even something to think about.

For that matter... Hasbro likely wouldn't want an administrator creating unlimited forums and changing the themes around and such, nor would I.
