<U><b>RANT:</U> <i>Noob v2</i></b>

It would seem that <b>Topf</b> Area's is back with a vengence. From what i can see all he has removed <b>GearGOD</b>'s Font, but he's still claiming the textured path (+all the other shit) as his own. Also it seems that a mods gone through and removed all the posts regarding topf's obvious misuse of others examples…. what were the mods thinking? Sure give him another chance, hey he's just a poor noob…. lets leave only the good comments. I really cant see how any of these comments were breaking the rules, none of them were IMO overly inflammatory. I dont really blame the mods, it must be hard dealing with noobs.

Now , no fucking surprise, he's been caught out again, this time by <b>Indecomm4000</b>. <A HREF='http://forums.gamemaker.nl/index.php?showtopic=244877&st=50'> <b>Link</b></A>. When will this guy learn that simply assimilating others examples/idea's into a crappier whole isnt achieving anything….. geez he's also trying to rip my z-axis shadow casting algorithms…. haha i guess this is why i made my L3S code so unreadable.

<U><b>GM</b></U>

To put it bluntly, im a lazy bastard. I've done near nothing on my game since i last blogged, except take these pics:

You may notice the really crappy jpeg conversion and the absence of the HUD, i've decided that HUD was shitzen and just got in the way of the action. Basically at the moment im just looking forward to modifying L3S for kill Catalyst…. plus developing a few minor systems.

Peace Out.

PS: Damn a mods removed my warn. XD

A very noticeable one as well. Half the report system is about him it seems. I'm powerless there, but definitely let me know if anything pops up in the Q+As ^_~

I guess its up to <b>yourself</b> or one of the global moderators to decide what to do…. The fact that he can hardly speak english makes me wonder if he understands anything we say anyway….

KC shot it down, and provided a completely different reason for it, so it's not going to come back again.

I think regardless of whether or not what he did is illegal (and it certainly was with my sprites in his creation), pretty much everyone can agree that it's immoral and the sheer number of complaints should be reason enough to do something about such things.

I think she worded it that way to cover all author's who's work was stolen/borrowed whatever. In some cases, he was clearly breaking the terms of use stated for the resource/example, while in other cases he was probably just being a rude asshole.

Anyways, after accustations, he basically denied it in the topic. Wouldn't surprise me if he still denies it now. In other words, we can only *hope* that he's learned his lesson, but I think we'll watch just in case.

Judging by this PM i just recieved from him, i doubt he's learnt much. Basically it says what he posted in the Expert Forum & a little bit more evidence which backfires on him since its damn near exactly the same as my code:<A HREF='http://www.freewebtown.com/ltsproductions/topf.htm'><b>LINK</b></a>

But its good to see that the mods do still understand , moral/ethical laws.
