    OP
    Quoted from toyotaboy:

    Ok so it was only a matter of time before Stern starting seeing how much more money they could pluck from the pinball pie by offering custom toppers and sideblade art stickers to go along with their machines. Won't be long before they copy colordmd, or dutch pinball and start doing dot matrix dots on LCD's. Now Jersey jack has effectively stolen mezelmod's idea by putting an LCD inside the book on hobbit (yes I know oz had the LCD inside the crystal ball).
    Should pinball manufacturers be ashamed for stealing innovation rather than creating it?

    Don't forget modders who steal ideas from other modders....those are probably the worst.
