To The eBay Homo:

I know you visit these boards. Do not do an action like this again.

Give credit to the people who made it - IN YOUR AUCTION - so they know who made the emulator that you are illegally selling access too.

Wait, that would defeat the purpose..

Just die. K, Thx..

[Yodason]

its not illegal.

[Lurker_005]

perhaps not, but it is REALLY LOW and just morally[sp?] wrong. Somewhere along the lines of sending out millions of spam mails using other peoples servers.


And come to think of it it is probabbly someone that was baned. If they aren't, I would ban them if I could.

[Ariak]

He linked the copyrighted images from the webpage onto his auction without giving the copyright owner credit.

Illegal, no??

[somedude]

I dont think any of the devs payed 2 grand to copyright the images, but it is essentially a form of stealing because they belong to this site...

[Ariak]

1) You don't 'copyright' an image.. If you wanted to, that would be a trademark :)
2) It doesn't cost $2,000..



Anything on their page *is* copyrighted, as long as it says "Copyright (Date)" or "(c) date"

[Ariak]

"All material copyright of it's respective artists. Unauthorized redistribution is forbidden.
All other materials

[Ariak]

I believe you just got /pwned, sir.

Drive Through ^_^.

/e stands up for EQEMU :)

[Yodason]

it depends on if he LINKED to the image. or if he rehosted the image. One is questionable legal, one is definatley not.

[Ariak]

He did NOT give credit to the linked image. He did not give credit to a hosted image. He blantantly stole the image THEY have copyrighted.

Let me put it this way.

I run a porn site (I DO NOT!!)

I host a BUNCH of pictures from another site. I do NOT give credit to the owner. I do not ask the owner to reproduce his images.

That = ILLEGAL.

[chocobo]

whats the site name ar? :p hehe kidding but serious we should track this mofo down:mad:

[Ariak]

ROFLMAO. It was an example!

I am going to be hounded for this, now..

[Ariak]

[Shawn319]

He illegally used my likeness to make proffit. THAT = illegal :)

[chocobo]

[somedude]

alright well I write books and such... I asked soem company about copy righting them and they said it costed 2 grand ariak.. and I made assumption (not good to do) that it was the same for images ok..

[chocobo]

who cares about ebay ara posted illegal pics in that website without my permission ill see yoou in court:p

[Lyenu X`Arie]

Actually, if someone is making a person pay for a free service without the permission of the company then that is illegal. And if I see it on ebay/paypal/etc. I will make sure to email the owners of those sites and get that account banned of their system. This type of action for a FREE service is wrong, and if we find out who it is, I'm sure you won't be back here, or on EQEmu anytime soon, kk? =)

[somedude]

Lyenu, this subject is now pointless, auction was taken down, lock this thread please, thank you
