Both of the ones with which I'm familiar are a lot of fun and take things in stride (such as semi-jokingly naming one neighborhood "Knockoff Alley").</p>
<p>I do know, however, that the World Of Hogwarts RP (based in Sunset Harbor) looks to be closing soon due to RL problems that the owner is having (including bereavement).</p>
<p>Also, pluggity plug, my business (Clover's Kitchen) makes HP-themed food! </p>Emperor Norton commented on 'Harry Potter Roleplay Sim in Second Life Coming Soon'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef014e8a798dea970d2011-08-08T15:43:54Z2011-08-08T15:43:54ZEmperor Norton"strictly canon to the books/movies.

It has been around since before I arrived in SL in 2006 and they have yet to be pursued for copyright issues. In fact there are numerous GOR areas around the grid.</p>Salvatore Otoro commented on 'Harry Potter Roleplay Sim in Second Life Coming Soon'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0154344a86fe970c2011-08-06T00:55:41Z2011-08-06T00:55:41ZSalvatore Otorohttp://www.secondliferoleplay.comThere is a Harry Potter role play currently in SL.

In addition, there is role play for Star Trek, Star Wars, Babylon 5, and Game of Thrones. As far as I know, none of these areas have had copyright issues with their role play. In face, all the role plays I mentioned, except for the Game of Thrones role play, have been around for years.</p>Laro commented on 'Harry Potter Roleplay Sim in Second Life Coming Soon'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef014e8a6a6475970d2011-08-06T00:47:45Z2011-08-06T00:47:45ZLaroYeah, was thinking the same: Your world, your imagination, someone else's copyright.

Your world, your imagination, someone else's copyright.<br />
With wide open eyes everyone just stares and a huge copyright infringement and shrugs. They really should rename that thing quickly. <br />
