I haven't personally played The Realm Online, but I know someone who had. What a scummy move from Norseman Games.

In it you should loose the copyright after 2 years, 5 for very important stuff like Kernels and 10 for special made Software (for MRI Maschines or Factory software)

And it should be required to maintain it for that time at least, as long as there is still a few users.

Just make it so if you stop providing regular updates/servers/maintenance, etc. you lose the copyright
