copiers

Ok,on scratch,Recently I've seen [removed by Moderator - please don't accuse people in the forums] copying my project and not giving credit.I spent 3 hours on it (mabe 6)and I've kept asking him to give credit and he just deletes my comment and says he made the entire project by himself.so if you see [removed by Moderator]'s project THE SCHOOL ESCAPE please do not say something like (AWSOME!)because he did not make it.I might have exepted it if he gave credit like I asked him.but he did not listen.I've seen the same with swifty 2 and 08jackt.Is somebody copying your projects and not giving credit? answer here!

Re: copiers

You did the right thing by asking politely for credit to be given.  Since it was not, your next step should be to flag the project so that the Scratch Team can take a look at the situation and take the necessary actions.  Please don't accuse people by name in the forums though...that tends to lead to a lot of hostility.

Re: copiers

Same here. I made a game called Stepped Out and it got featured and became really famous. It got nearly 2000 views. Somebody copied it and claimed they made it completely. There's got 10 views and one positive comment. So, believe me, they don't succeed.

Re: copiers

ok,I think scratch is dealing with it.I overreacted a bit.I'll probably delete my update soon unless he continues,anyway,I hope he learned his lesson but I do hope he is not banned.
