It is that Matze/Serpendiem took MapleStory.exe, modified it, and redistributed it as OdinMS.exe.Hmmm interesting, how are they gonna prove which person modified and redistributed it? For all we know it was some Chinese hacker who did that... Afaik, Odin never hosted those files on their server, nor linked to them...
P.S. This would also mean that Nexon gave up on making the the pserver code itself look illegal... since it was truly home coded and they finally found that out 2 years later...

Besides that, you can't steal a concept of Maplestory, since most concept of Maplestory is stolen by Nexon from other sources that had their own copyrights... even fairy tales are copyrighted... :+)
