Children, it is time to grow up.
Take responsibility for the shittiness in your life and stop slagging it off on others as though somehow you have no control over your own destiny.
Also, fuck off, etc.
Oh trust me they arent the only ones. I used to want to like you but you are just such a condescending asshole 100% of the time.

I really don't think the cloning is what would predicate the suit. As was pointed out on page 1:
Gone Fission wrote:Tortious interference with contract relations is, as you would expect, a tort. Mental distress can be included in damages. Contracts arising out of the interference can be enjoined to prevent the tortfeasor from benefitting.
The real issue is the "tortious interference" (emailing distributors). I'm not a lawyer, and I'm not sure that said email would be a slam-dunk bit of evidence for a winning suit, but it's enough (I think) to get as far as a trial. At that point, the alleged tortfeasor (the one who committed the tortious act) has likely wasted a fair bit of money if he/she has retained an attorney. Or they could go cowboy and opt for a
pro se defense (self-representation). This is often a good way to go for a suit you suspect is overtly frivolous or one that has damage claims of a low value.
If any of you are interested in becoming armchair amateur attorneys (like me), check out your state court's page on Pro Se law. New Jersey has a great page for this, including a very informative handbook on civil suit procedure (written for people who aren't attorneys):

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Srs stop being suck a fucking JERK. Nobody cares how much you make. NOBODY. Well maybe JHS but NOBODY. Yeah you got ripped off and they were dicks about it, but i kindof think they may have honestly been diplomatic and apologetic about it in the beginning, as we all know how fucking good you are at winning people over...but then again i hate christians regardless so ill chose to believe you, HOWEVER, i honestly hope this has some negative outcome for you. Be it personally, financially, whatever. Since i joined the devi forum in the beginning youve done nothing but treat those around you like pieces of shit, i really hope you learn some fucking humility. Youve turned out to be a worthless, uninspired, ugly person. Inside and out. I have no sympathy for your situation at all. Please stay the fuck off our forum.
