Re: Looking for examples of different types of remixing

I'm curious why this project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Williamis3/2188567

doesn't show that it was based on my project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/BoltBait/2176968

It is only a couple of blocks different.

Re: Looking for examples of different types of remixing

Here is a direct rip of one of my projects:

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Maddog123456789/2358346

Nothing changed except that it does not say that it is based on my project.

Now he's on the front page and people think he wrote it!

That's just rude.

EDIT:

Here are more direct copies that are not properly attributed:

There is a type of remixing that is worse than cloning:  Ripping

Ripping is where a scratcher downloads a game, removes the original authors name, replaces it with their own, and uploads.  No other changes made.

I've had this done to my games before.

I might call that "cloning as trolling" :-) I imagine people do this type of cloning  to either gain recognition at the expense of someone else's work or to annoy the original creator.  Do  you think there might be other motivations? Do you have some examples?

Here's an example:

How do you remix them?
