Someones posted my work as their own!!!

[OrkyDave]

Hiya,

I can\'t for the life of me figure out why, but some crazy arsed fool has posted 3 of my submissions in their gallery as their own!!!

I have reported it to the mods, but I am fairly certain there are other submissions in there that I have seen by other people so it may be worth having a look to see if any of your stuff is there. If so report it to a moderator too!

Looking at his username I think it may be someones idea of a joke, or another attempt by someone to try and make a point of discrediting the voting system, although I just cannot get my head around why!

The worst thing is all 3 are currently scoring higher than in my own gallery!!lol

Your comments are very calm and diplomatic anyway! lol

 

[Swordwind]

You\'d think they\'d have the brains to make sure the icons in the corners matched up to each other...

Vike has been super and taken care of it for me (and other users I suspect!)

He has also been kind enough to provide me with the fools e-mail address so I am off now to write an even calmer and more diplomatic message!lol

Do be sure to report back! I\'d love to hear what justification *cough*feeble excuse*cough* they come out with.

Yes do update us I need a bit of amusement to break up painting

 

[vincegamer]

Come on guys, don\'t you think it\'s funny that the person chose the screen name \"Pretender\" to post other people\'s work?

I\'m thinking April Fools joke.

 

[Beelzebrush]

What a pillock. I\'ve got to admit that it made me laugh though lol

I can see why that would be a bit galling lol

 

[rosac]

i would take that as a kind of compliment, after all, if your work if good enough to attempt to fake, then it must be brilliant work!:beer:

This was reported to me, independantly via PM, this morning and I tried to look all this but seems as if SuperVike has lived up to his name. (Well done Vikey)
You\'ll be pleased to hear that the (Insert Suitable Descriptive Phrase here)........... is no longer a part of this site.

 

[rosac]

well thats that sorted by the moderators(you guys deserve an award or something!) but i am curious, has this kind of thing happened before???

Oh Yeah!
We\'ve had several issues like this in the past, as well as blatent copyright theft of GW images from their own website & White Dwarf.

Sadly when we are approving images we can\'t always tell, (hey we\'re only Human) but if we have any suspicions we generally note the number and have a second look once it\'s in the galleries.
Anything blatent usually gets the boot straight away and the \"offender\" gets a visit from the \"Boys\".

somehow a bunch of us armed with tiny paintbrushes, magnifying glass headbands, assorted gamer talk shirts and incredibly tight mop boy outfits just doesnt seem to strike fear into your average bad guy. lollollol

On the contrary, I would find a visit from such a group to be quite unsettling.
