  "account": "According to Rebelzize, a former volunteer is threatening legal action against the Elder Scrolls Skyblivion mod project. The volunteer alleges that their contributions were removed from the game. Skyblivion is a popular project with the potential for significant resume value, as seen with Fallout London developers who became their own indie studio. The project has run for a long time without major scandal. While there is little a fan of the project can do, Rebelzize notes that the volunteer has secured paid legal help if the lawsuit fails. The specifics of what the volunteer worked on and whether it contributed to the project's delay are unclear.",
