Head Thieves
 

I'm really pissed at all these people posting your custom made head on their website without permission and watching other players steal it and claim it as their own. Iclassic staff really have to do something about this problem. (Maybe build a system to prevent uploading the same head or make a option to make your head private).

for era too. boohoo

Put your name on the death animation. Otherwise, not a lot you can do.

just live with it

Nothing can be done unfortunately. Each head would have to be proven to be made by the original creator and checked to see if it was already uploaded. It's just a bunch of extra time and effort that's not needed. There's no way we're going back to the waiting a few months for a custom system. You just have to hope the players will learn to respect your work some day and stop thievery. I used to steal customs when the system came out, but I refunded every single one of them and only upload stuff I make/hugely edit now. I regret what I did before because I know how horrible it feels to have your work stolen and I should have known better.

Era pc are thieves. Then made MY head and MY body free for everybody on the server. They should be ashamed. It's a total disrespect to Xertic and I. If anybody knows era pc manager email (Tim_Rock) please tell me it on a visitor message :)

Graaldepot is a good website for me when I am going to find a good head for my graal character on Graal PC. But I do understand that you don't want hundreds of other players using the same head as you.

If you put your body or head in the Graal folder, you should be ready to get it stolen, both on the servers and here on iGraal. If you want to have it private at, at least Graal PC, you can personalize it when uploading, it gives you a harder code to remember, but yeah, it's worth it.

Nothing can be really done. When you upload our head you need to know that other people can steal it. But this is a big problem and something does need to be done, it's ok for me since I don't really upload heads but I'm sure many people find it extremely annoying.

It's unfortunate, but there's nothing that a staff member could realistically do to prevent this.

BUT RUFUS!!! HE STOLE MY HEAD!!!!

Code a file recognation system which filters through similar already exisiting heads, from then they could upload or deny based on how copied it is.
Yes i know it would be hard to code but is somthing?

Its their fault... Watch some of the blogs where they would just show off heads instead of giving the head. Some just showcase and say you can use it with permission. So if you have a problem with that... Fix it.

Actually if you've uploaded the head, it belongs to Graal and not you, so it is just as much in the "thief"'s right to upload the head as it is to upload a regular head. Discouraged, but uploaders are too lazy to care.

Yeah I know, but it's really not ethical to upload someone else's work and claim it as their own or recolor it.

Well it seems in todays world, fewer and fewer are concerned about ethics.
