In the beginning, Magicbane's creators pretended to be Chechnyan fans with no connections to the Shdaowbane Emualtor project. However, when their server was opened to the public, it was discovered that there were [https://i.imgur.com/MSNTRvv.png| undeniable, unique similarities] to the same server operated by Shadowbane Emulator. This, and the timely departure of Papah made it clear that source code used by Magicbane was an unauthorized copy Shadowbane Emulator's, taken by Papah without permission. Despite these facts, the creators took credit for '''all''' of the development work done by their former colleagues. Magicbane developers furthered this false narrative by creating intentional "bugs" in the source code which were swiftly "fixed" to attempt to hide their theft and to inspire confidence in their ability to quickly and easily resolve community bug reports. | In the beginning, Magicbane's creators pretended to be Chechnyan fans with no connections to the Shdaowbane Emualtor project.
