Attention {sfx}! Your mods are being stolen!

Hi,

   

   There's a guy in the Polish MoHAA community called Piter. He's been releasing various mods for quite a while and their subjects being identical as your mods' raised my suspicions. I looked into 'his' anti camper mod and compared it with Elgans - he just changed the cvar names and claims it's his! He also 'made' a SP-maps-in-MP mod, which I couldn't get, but I bet it's again a ripoff of yours.

   

   Then, he announced on a few Polish forums he 'made' a map called Omaha Assault. He's just unbelievable - he claims to have done your map, which hasn't even been released yet!

   

   What he does is untolerable. It's sad we've got such people in the community... I think we should shame that bitch. If you want to claim your work, go to http://www.moh.gamesnet.pl/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=1433&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=">this thread and click ODPOWIEDZ button to write a reply. Write in English, they'll understand or I'll translate for them.

   

   He's also ripped off jv_maps Snow contest without crediting him, gonna drop him a note about that, too.

how about a translation for also what language is this

   

   Hej,

   

   Patrzac na mody, ktore pan Piter rzekomo tworzy i porownojac je z tymi napisanymi przez {sfx} (http://www.mods-r-us.net/) nie moge oprzec sie wrazeniu, ze sa do siebie wrecz podejrzanie podobne. Mod antykamperski, mapy single-player w MP - oni to wszystko juz dawno napisali. Sprawdzilem ten caly Anty Camper mod - jedyna rzecz, ktora Piter zrobil, byla zmiana nazw cvarow!!! Evil or Very Mad A gdyby nie Elgan, nic by nie zrobil! A w readme nie ma ANI SLOWA o oryginalnym autorze! W "Piter-SP-map" nie wnikalem, ale jestem pewien, ze zrobil dokladnie to samo.

   

   Omaha Assault - mapa, ktora Piter sie tak bardzo chwalil - tez jest tworzona przez nich. Nasz tanczacy zolnierzyk, o ile pamietam, pisal, ze to on jest autorem, podczas gdy on nawet nie mial prawa tej mapy sciagnac, bo Cobra i Phil, jej prawdziwi autorzy, jeszcze jej nie wypuscili, a screenshoty, ktore wam pokazywal, mozna zobaczyc na http://www.mods-r-us.net/forums.php?m=posts&q=317&n=unread#unread.">http://www.mods-r-us.net/forums.php?m=posts&q=317&n=unread#unread.

   Zrobil was wszystkich w jajo!

   

   Mod swiateczny - nic by z tego nie bylo, gdyby nie mod Snow Contest jv_mapa. Znowu nigdzie ANI SLOWA o oryginalnym autorze! Bezczelne zerzniecie!

   

   Krotko mowiac, Piter, wstydz sie - wykorzystales to, ze team {sfx} nie jest u nas znany. Wziales cudza robote i sie pod nia podpisales, nie wspominajac o oryginalnych autorach, bez ktorych gowno bys zdzialal. Evil or Very Mad {sfx} zostana powiadomieni o tym, co wyprawiasz.

jeez, :((

   

   Elgan that post that contains are names is by rookie one, piter as not mentioned them.

Ok i have spoken with piter and hes saying he as only edited it to polish language and it does give credit to the maker, which he said Phil. So i have told him its Elgans work/mod and to change that fact asap.

   

   So i downloaded the mod again and it still says:

   

   

   Mod by *<|BRO|>*Piter

   

   Witam w anty camper Mod !

   //anti camper script by Piter

   //www.moh.gamesnet.pl

   //gadu gadu 3801033

   

   So i have now informed him to remove the mod from his site until it contains:

   www.mods-r-us.net

   

   Changed to polish by *<|BRO|>*Piter

   Now about jv_map's snow contest mod.I did download that one also to see if he was credited for the mod and in the readme file jv_map is credited for this mod

   

   Where's the readme? It's just a zip containing a .pk3, nothing more.

   

   And that post of mine at moh.gamesnet.pl is exactly the same as I wrote here but in Polish.

   

   And he lies he mentioned Phil. There's nothing at all, or if there is now, he did it after I made the fuss. I'm gonna upload the files somewhere so you can download them and see for yourself.

   

   <EDIT>

   Phil - I translated Piter's post as requested.

   

   'His' anticamper mod as I found it when I started the fuss:
