GenerikB is a whole different story. I don't fully recall his story, but he led some scam or another that caused a lot of issues and he was using the Mindcrack name, so Guude wanted to force a contract that would prevent willy-nilly use of the name Mindcrack so that scams like GeneikB did wouldn't happen again. And of course, nobody likes contracts, so things started to fall apart.
my understanding is that the copyright of mindcrack was because scammers were making fake mindcrack servers to steal from ppl and mojang got involved. then the contracts came around bc generikb and rob were doing illegal stuff. ive yet to figure out exactly what it was but guude says he found it problematic enough to bring members under contract to protect the group as a whole. generik and rob left bc of the contracts, etho left bc he didnt want his name to potentially leaked by legal docs, and PSJ left bc he wasnt into that kind of content anymore anyway

I don't remember anything about random scammers using fake mindcrack servers, but as I said, GenerikB was definitely doing some illegal stuff that required the contract.
I don't believe anything Rob did was illegal. Just very much frowned upon.
GenerikB and BdoubleO took money from several different servers. The biggest is WynnCraft (which was ran by Grian). They then made videos promoting the server without disclosing it was a paid promotion. Generik also used the Mindcrack name when playing on these servers saying that Mindcrack approves of it. Guude talks about a developer getting scammed of $400 because he thought it was an official Mindcrack server. Guude had to prevent them from fucking up the Mindcrack brand and had to make contracts.
Hey new guy, sorry we all missed you
that has some stuff

Goot morning Mr. bot
Good era, I think a fair number of people here sorta fell off liking Unforgotten Realms live around the midpoint of S2 as well
between it being a little overscripted and the whole meta plotline being kinda meh
That was part of what Rob was struggling with at the time, how to cut up those S2 and S3 streams into clips or shorter recap movies
Replying to galah1 #galah1 This mindcrack Guude rant is throwing me
I still (loosely) feel bad for Guude because I think he's blamed a little too much for Mindcrack failing
Replying to galah1 #galah1 I didn't realise the consensus was rob was bad for a while now
from the mindcrack era or in general?
Most people here knew he was an asshole for a while, him being a dick to Justin behind the scenes of urealms live was the first major crack a lot of people saw, which came out after he destroyed his career at the end of URL S3
also welcome to the server
Rob became generally unstable in the 2018/2019 timeframe
but specific to Mindcrack, Rob treated the group differently than most other mindcrackers did
which I think was why everyone had such strong opinions behind the scenes
