I would be afraid of people hosting a clone shard and calling it IN without living up to the IN name... even the leaked shards that were using leaked original-IN sphere scripts/accounts from a few years ago at least were attempting to copy the feel of IN, not just the code.

I assume you're referring to Reflex's shards. That's a perfect example. He managed to get his hands on some old code, but doesn't know what the heck he's doing with it, gives stuff away, and only really uses his shard to troll us and steal players from IN when we're running a legit shard. Then he just takes it down when he's bored of it and those players vanish.
