[HY] Stealing is a sign of small and insignificant genit*lia | A-TEAM

Today I've noticed that particular military unit A-TEAM is using a slightly modified version of my graphics. After a couple of comments/PMs without answer, telling him that is not alright to steal/use graphics from another MU without permission, Iranian MoFA Osex removed me from his friends list..so, I was compelled to send this heartwarming message to the A-TEAM:
Original work:
Just to be clear, I'm not calling you out for money..an official apology from your top brass would suffice.
🙂

Well, they do say imitation is the highest form of flattery, right?
I am flattered, but also greedy and vane..maybe even bored a bit.
We steal their money, they steal our graphics.Seems fair enough.
Sorry, 'we'? Last time I checked I didn't have multiple personalities and even if I did neither of those didn't steal anything.
How much does the graphic cost?
@jordic It's not about the money.
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag
This might would make some sense if synhro had any role at all in the exec.
Spoiler: He doesn't.
Putting that aside, those graphics look to have been taken from an eJapanese MU that synhro did work for, not some hypothetical "we".
So synhro was judged cause you stole their money TDK?? 😛 😁
By the way, nice graphics!
Thnx!
sve se bojim da si kupio fotošop )
Nego šta! Legalno skinut sa Kickas*-a.
Let me talk with them
Da sam dobio gold svaki put kad sam video neki plagiran Frontov avatar tokom svih ovih godina danas bih bio Platon lično.
Ako pod 'plagiran' smatraš - kružnog je oblika ima tekst ispod i neke ukrase okolo - onda se slažem.
Small Penis detected
I dont think the avatar is stolen from someone, we only found the ring suitable for our own avatar, but everything else is designed by ourself and is not take from anyone.
So please don`t act like a crying child and grown up 😉
Oh yes it is stolen..the only thing 'designed' is the changed lettering and your logo that's been slapped over.
OK my friend, as a member of A-Team i want to thank you. you just informed us of what happened.
but, now, i need to know what do u want. u want money? ofc we will be happy to pay you to do some graphic for us, if u are looking for anything else, sorry, we cant help u.
you see, one of our members did send us a nice looking ring with mark of our beloved persian panther on it and we just accepted it. so we can't be calling thieves or what ever you are trying to call us.
Hello mate,
My guess is that someone modified it and presented it (maybe even sold it) to you as his own work. That avatar was designed by me from scratch for a Japanese MU (I mean it's obvious, cuz it has a Jap Imperial flag in the last ring). The 'we wound it on the internet' argument doesn't hold much weight, for example, you could have taken the Black Academi avy changed it up a bit and said that you 'found it'. That's just dodging the issue and you know it.
But the thing, that annoys me the most, is what happened after. When I confronted the guy about using my GFX without permission, he flat out ignored me and removed me from friends..at that point it stopped being a misunderstanding and became a theft. There are so many cool people in Iran and some of them even offered to pay up you 'debt' (which I declined ofc)..so don't shame them further by generalizing the problem.
The funny thing is if I were asked nicely, I would have probably allowed the use of my gfx and even help modifyng it..but instead I was treated patronizingly. What I would like is not money, but an official apology article, for using my graphics without permission, after which I would gladly delete my article.
Cheers

I see the real US here , oh we found 3 mil cc so its ours , oh we found an avatar like ours so they are stealer , oh we understood that dont need russia any more so we need a new ally for our new goal .
StOp these bullshits , why you think everything in everywhere is yours ?
I think plato must add boycott law for US too , you need it too .
Just understand when you upload a pic on internet , everyone can use and modify it , as I know this ring never used in erepublik before , so why crying ?
This has nothing to do with eUS, so your obvious red herring argument is unsubstantiated.
You're dumb. There is a fence in eUSA that divides us pretty significantly. Synhro is on the opposite side of the fence that stole that money from Iran. It is no different than accusing Canada for the theft of 3 mil.
Sorry to say that but it looks like stolen and it is shame that in 1 MU there wasnt 1 person capable to design 1 avatar. Bottom end each MU has his own avatar because we want to look different in battlefield, if you have no problem been "agent Smith" i am fine with that 🙂
The A-Team should be humiliated by this and rightly so
ah... i can see so much jealousy. ppl are jealous about mu that hasnt start to work yet, it just reminds me a famous quote:
never hate people who are jealous of you, but respect their jealousy! they are people who think that you are better than them!
@rican and all other who are showing their weak part and jealousy 🙂
get real....... theft is theft. your words mean nothing.
To the guy who wrote this article and owner of gfx my words ment many things. Ask him.and if my words are right, you are saying nonsense
Well the theft is there, but I was made to believe that that the MU itself wasn't aware of it. Steps are being made towards rectifying the issue, hopefully to everyone's benefit.
my dear friend, synhro
i dont know if u cant understand me or not, maybe its different from your point of view, but to me and my friends, it wasnt "stealing"
you can call it stealing when the guy who is taking your art knows you as owner and if he knew it belongs to some1.
but, when he is not aware of the fact that this avatar is "art" to someone and the owner believes he has right over it, u cant call it stealing.
i think the right word for what happened is "mistake"
and my dear friend, please stop talking in public so we can figure a decent way out of this,. by talking in public and accusing our member ou are making it hard toward a win - win solution.
thank you again for your patience and understanding
We like it or not, in erepublik there is no obligation to follow copyright.
Look, I was in Black Academi since its beginning. I have seen several MUs which copied or were inspired our frame graphics.
Were we sad about it? Yes
Did we cry about it? No :/
Even erepublik must follow laws about copyright and by the owner request delete the illegal content. I doubt they have any interest to fight against it and hold any information if the artist is pressing charges. :3
they only care about money
