I personally don't see what the GPL license has to do with any of this, he wasnt redistributing the code, modifying it, or copying it. He was selling information about this site, on fraudulent pretenses, and asking a ridiciulous sum for it on top of that.
Regardless of whether EQEMU is GPL or not, this is a completely seperate issue.
He was posting screenshots from this website, with no type of express permission, and as such, violated both Ebays advertising policy and Verant's ebay internet policy. THAT is in no way protected by the GPL. It's Internet fraud, plain and simple.
You keep dragging it up, but regardless of the licensing of the product, we're not talking about redistribution of the code here.
