Wow. That's low. Like, current US government low. I'm truly shocked, I've purchased a lot of product from MD, never expected them to outright completely steal a community design.

AoxmodeusSeems unlikely MD just goes around looking for designs/items to steal - more likely, or what we now know was the case, Duragod got permission off of ilouis to manufacture his design and then approached MD with the idea to run what was a clearly successful product to a more broader audience.
Not saying that's acceptable when he's stated he was not credited, not to mention his "invention" being entirely misinterpreted and mislabeled, but I think Massdrop intently "stealing" is a bit of a reach.

VigrithAs more information has made itself available, it does appear that it wasn't a complete steal and copy, but there is no doubt this has been poorly handled by Massdrop, and until the original creator gets credit, it's still very bad form.
