I’ve noticed that while Forumwarz parodies a lot of tech things (Asimov operating system, iPrune), I don’t think I’ve actually seen any real major trademarks or sites featured in the game. This got me when I was going to suggest pwning SomethingAwful as a high level mission (yes, I went there). Is this deliberate?

I don’t see any reason why SA can’t be changed slightly, just like iPrune and the rest. Maybe NothingUnpleasant?

Ah. I must not be up to there yet.

Still though, are you going to only have parody brands all the way through?

I believe all these things are protected under parody laws, meaning he can get away with it.

We’ve parodied or mentioned a lot of public figures and websites, but we’ve avoided breaking any copyright laws.

A parody of SA or BYOB is definitely going to show up as a high-level forum in the future. Stay gooned! (SWIDT?)

Will it be some sort of crazy huge forum where you have to go through and pwn subforum after subforum, struggling against threads being posted more quickly than you can take them down?

Don't mind me. I am just throwing my bps in the trash.

You have to pay Flezz to pwn SomethingTerrible, and then pay MORE Flezz just to make your avatar show up.

I was going to suggest this as well, only with LOADS of outlandish payments(pay to have it as a bookmark, then pay to visit, then pay to enter a thread, then pay to post).
