I cannot see any reason why open-sourcing would benefit the site at all.

I’m sure if you actually had the knowledge to make an INCIT app for the Iphone ET would help you out and supply some code. But that’s not open source and a very specific case.

All I see happening is people re-hosting the game on external sites making crappy parodies of a parody.

Some people could do cool stuff with some of the source. He knows who they are and if ET wanted he could contract them in with a non-disclosure agreement to do specific work. Maybe creeppipe on the iphone, invariel on the dom page sort of thing.

How would ET actually know who to seek out to do these things. I think if ForumWarz was Open Source in a sort of way like GenerichHaxor just suggested it work out where all those things would get done in a faster and more efficient manner than just having ET going on an endless search to find people to do stuff for him.
