I've had art work stolen more than I have edits...... but the one time my edits were stolen was all my shop keeper npc avvys, and the guy wasnt giving me credit in his lil display of them, didnt ask for em to begin with, and was a dumb arse enough to.....one.....to post in a forum that doesnt allow people to off the bat to post there (extended feedback) and two.....have the gaul to claim that the official Ian shopkeeper sprite he drew..... stare

someone else spotted him for me and sent me a link, though they told him already to take em down cuz I wasnt recieveing credit and so forth. He didnt listen to her but I know how to set people straight. 3nodding My mistake was being nice at the end after I scared the crap outa him, because then he tried to ask to keep the edits anyway. stare

just be frank and flat and serious and make sure you are clear and short and its good to stick a frank lil threat on at the end of like mod powers and/or copyrights....or anything that gives the impression that you mean buisness. (I know I kinda fibbed about the copyrights, because I hold no copyrights to any avvy edits cuz they belong to gaia.......but w.e.....most people dont know a thing about copyrights......)

ah yes don't you just love it when after you ask them to take it down, THEN they say they will give credit.. I had someone do that in the past with some custom Sailor Moon sprites I made. I asked her three times to take them down and everytime she said "I'm sorry! If I put up credit can I PLEASE keep them?" then she starting saying that I told her she could claim them as her own.... WTF... >.> The girl who did it is on Gaia now... and I am keep an eye on her... ninja

i have just attended to this:

~Jade Dracos~
Hello Shocktv3,

I am just reporting to you that someone came to my shop posting a banner asking if anyone wanted to buy some ava edits.

I clearly saw the 4th hokage edit you did and shaolins Kakashi edit in amongst the others he had stolen and told him that he didn't do them. stressed

He then editted his post and said he made them. sweatdrop

User Image

That is the banner he showed us. I am sure you know the other editiors who did the others. So i will allow you to inform them, i don;t want to bother a whole bunch of people

His name is soren shishimitzo, and in his history he has been doing it elsewhere also. gonk

The page showing his fraud And that is the page of my shop showing what he did and such.

domokun I hope you get this. And sorry to bother you if you were busy, but i find it better to inform you.

~Jade Dracos~


quite a pathetic attempt if u ask me.. im so tired of dealing with this stuff sweatdrop
PostPosted: Sat Sep 18, 2004 1:33 pm


Wow, I'm still amazed at what some people will try...
He takes edits that are not at all consistent (art styles), and then he advertises it everywhere to spread this picture

Not to mention that he spelled Naruto wrong in his picture!
noroto.bmp
That's the part that ticks me off to most, to tell you the truth! stressed

Hehe, anyway, I hope he will see my PM and will cease his actions.
Now the waiting begins sweatdrop

I finally got a response from soren shishimitzo
But I've noticed that everytime I have to deal with these issues, the suspect always claims to have gotten those edits from 'a friend' or 'someone', and they never tell me that person's name. I have also noticed that most of these people speak Ian's native language too...Well at least he apologized and said he will inform his 'friend' about the severity of taking other people's artwork.

Yeah.... thats what happened to me stare .....they said to me that a "friend" told them to do it.

In my case I dont really care what their "friend" said, if this mystery person isnt the one ACTING. Those who steal should be punished(kinda simple), and it doesnt matter their "friend" telling them to do it. >_> I wont stand for a trail of blame to follow......dont be fooled....its a distract tactic as they try to flee >o<


yeah uhm *ahem*.........I'll just put the big stick away for later and go back to my soft words.....heh sweatdrop (I know I'm mean to theives..... its just something in me)

Hahaha... thanks Dante. That guy is such a greedy, thoughtless b*****d.

The only reason he set up that very vague RP (and I use the term RP loosely) is to ask people to buy things for him!

He can't even make a decent sentence, for chrissake! This is a sad day for roleplay.

Remind me never to leave this guild, ever. blaugh

Crap! This is making me paranoid... I guess I need to start signing my work.
PostPosted: Sun Sep 19, 2004 1:43 pm


Aha...I thought it was kind of fishy after reading the file names of the edits he posted:
  • giftfrommaurin.png
  • Meri-JLoGown.gif
  • killrsora.jpg
  • inyo2.jpg
This guy didn't even think about changing the names of the files that he steals. When I saw 'Meri-JLoGown' I was pretty sure it was referring to Meriko. And sure enough, I found it at Meriko's thread, along with the 'giftfrommaurin':
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=97502518#97502518
I will inform her of it now.
I believe I've seen that Sora somewhere also, but I am not quite sure where... sweatdrop

Son of a...he stole the gifts that people made for me!!

He's going around advertising stolen edits in other people's mini-shops and asking people if they want to start a team with him. I didn't think anyone could pack so much stupid into one post.
