OFFICIAL PETITION - Arteq - 09-18-2011
Dear admins of itsmods!
I think you all remember mw2.net.ru stealing our mods without credits & links to our site. Last month I have seen more than 10 web-sites with contest, stolen from us. I sent a message to admin of mw2.net.ru and luckily he didnt ban me. He replied.
Quote:Now listen to me nerd:
First, the legislation in Russia accounted for a fact: "All that is laid out in the Internet, all available to the public and is not someone else's property." (I wrote it myself, just do not remember the article number, but if you're so interested, he will find). So good luck with the court
Second, even if you have something there on the court and once you there is something out, you will not find us, and even if they can find, we are under 18 - sorry, but parents will be hard to prove that this is the stuff we took off from. site and translated it.
Oh, and lastly, once you get mad and probably so have you got there already frothing at the mouth running, I can point to your mods "By G-Man", but no more, for your subsequent messages will be ignored or even banned.
Oh yeah, almost forgot, good luck with court!
So what I ask you about - to minimize such incidents I ask you to
- Ban everyone except active members with 5+ posts and who visit itsmods.com at least 1 time per 2 weeks
- Close registration OR allow registration only by invitation from any member
- Make mods passworded or somehow else, idk
- Make all threads visible only to registered users
This is my petition. Cause I dont like that people are stealing something and laugh after this. We allowed them to steal our mods. Okay, everyone makes mistakes. But let us not to re-mistake. I ask you to make our web-site more private for privacy of mods.
Hope you will understand me in right way.
G-Man.

You didn't any valid legal license to your mod releases so technically everyone may copy it without giving any credits since you did not specifically state that it wasn't allowed.
I added licenses to the ItsModsloader and getting stuff DMCA'd took <12 hours and other companies never asked questions (YouTube/Google; MegaUpload; uploaded.to; mediafire; etc)
However making it so you need 5 posts (instead of just registering) is an option.
RE: OFFICIAL PETITION - ddaavvee - 09-18-2011
they failed with stealing mine, because i give myself credits and the only thing i released was an .FF file, so all my scripts/codes, etc. are hardcoded and cannot be changed :3
(but i prefer the .ff ripper on this site to be deleted)
RE: OFFICIAL PETITION - Nukem - 09-18-2011
edit: wow, two posts in less than a minute before me :<
5. In every mod (ingame), include credits that are clearly visible of the makers and/or ItsMods (what daave said basicly)

FF's aren't encrypted. It's just packed and therefore it looks like it is binary. But you just need an unzip program and you get the raw data out.

i dont ask you to get em to court
i just ask to make itsmods more private to avoid stealers in future.
