No, not at all. We may need to make a change if LEGO approaches us, but they cannot do anything without contacting the site first, and unlike Curse, we will change if we have to.

Exactly. Please calm down folks. There are a bucket load of differences here from legouni.com.

1) The Curse site is a commercial interest. They sell page space to advertisers. They make money off of the LEGO Universe activity.
This site does not.
2) They used LU graphics from the LEGO site to make their page banner and background
This site does not.
3) Numerous news pages from LEGO were copied word for word on the legouni.com website without linking to their page.

Lego just wants to control the use of their information and graphics. If you look at the old legouni site it could very easily be misidentified as an official lego web site.

My advice is to continue the course here. This site has been around a very long time. It doesn't make money from the discussion of lego. It doesn't use lego in the url. It doesn't use lego trademarked graphics.

Without panic ASK them what advice they would offer to mlno.org in our quest to comply and be a good neighbor to lego. They do say in their terms that they will accept requests to use trademarked materials.

The key here is that mlno.org is ready willing and able to comply and that goes a long way.

True friends are like LEGO bricks; they may not be in the box together, they may not be alike, but they always fit together if you want them to.
