Concerning Remixes

I am not certain if this is a common problem or not, but just this morning, when  I went to check on the views to my games, I found two people had remixed my "Monkey Ninja" game. Now I realize some people have two accounts on this website. However, when I looked at these two, they had done nothing to make it look like anything extra was done to the game! The game was exactly the same. And to top that off, they used the same posting I used when describing the game. The game was also downloaded and "remixed" by guys from China who, according to their own posts, are New Scratchers. And the game was remixed by the two within ten minutes of each other. Am I getting paranoid or is this a issue everyone here can relate to? I am not wishing to cause problems, but this is a great concern to me.

Re: Concerning Remixes

Flag it. Make sure it is exactly the same before you do though. That happened to me twice before, and all you've gotta do is report it, and it'll get taken down in a matter of days  smile

Re: Concerning Remixes

Under the amount of views, love its, etc., there'll be a "Flag as inappropriate?" button. Click it, type in that they copied you, click submit and you're done! Make sure you give a link to the original project that they copied too  wink

Re: Concerning Remixes

This is a very common and not that serious problem. I would reccomend that you flag the projects, just as long as they didn't give credit and didn't change anything.
