IMPORTANT!!!!
« on: May 02, 2004, 01:49:50 am »
Found out about this from a guy spamming the chat channel in a MMORPG I play.

Goto http://www.halasia.hotrpg.com.

I think you\'ll notice something familiar about the website, like the fact its graphics are RIPPED FROM PLANESHIFT\'S! If the layout is used with permission, then it\'s okay, but I have a decent suspicion that\'s this guy thought he\'d get away with it. I wasn\'t sure who to contact, so I\'ll post here instead.

Let\'s go slice his tires.

He\'s breaking copyrights, the graphics aren\'t free for use.
And his jokes aren\'t even funny.

I\'m downloading the client now...

A: Six. Five to argue on who\'s explanation is right, and Moogie to lock the thread.

The game is far from being a PS rip, that\'s for sure...

Try username \'guest\' pass \'guest\'.

It\'s only the site background that got ripped.

I\'m not saying this should be ignored, but it\'s not THAT bad.

Seriously though, he is pretty stupid to do that, his site doesn\'t even look good...

Looks good, i think ill just step over to them and leave PS ;)
A programmer from PS has already posted a complaint in their forum. So im curious to their response. Of course lots of banners pop up as well.

Dunno, can you give us a clue? :P Xordan has posted as wel i see. No response yet however.

Its kinda pathetic, the only ones on the forum seem to be the guy himself and some people of PS. And each time you open a topic some banner pops up.
No i DONT want to buy a computer, would i be on the internet if i didnt have a pc?
hm feel almost sorry for the dude.

Don\'t they say imitation is the highest form of flattery? ;)

It all seems very amateurish, has anyone actually tried the download? Surely someone who can\'t manage to organise a decent website has no hope of putting together any kind of game.

This will be the most publicity he\'s ever had :)

Indeed and probably doubled the number of users. But he is still looking for moderators, so mogura perhaps you want to have a go ;) There are a lot of applications however according to him so you might have to wait :P

He hasn\'t replied yet though, or he doesn\'t come on his forum that much or he think were spamming him trying to lure his community to PS.
And he is right, we are jealous of him :D
