How the hell is this Copyright Infringement?

I understand why the staff member thought it was copyright but I don't think you can copyright an look. That's like saying you can't have a buzz cut because the military copyrighted it. This shouldn't have been a copyright infringement.

There is a set of upload rules. That is there criteria.

Respect copyrights and only upload graphics that you have made yourself or that you are authorized to use. Any concepts that are taken from television shows, video games or any other forms of media will not be accepted. Works that are inspired by such material are only accepted under some circumstances. It is therefore encouraged that you design original ideas for your graphics to avoid any issues that may arise.

Do you see why theres silly problems like this. This gives uploaders the power to have the final say even if they're wrong.

I had the same problem with the orange guy admin. I sent my body like 15 times because i knew i was allowed to upload it and he kept deleting it because he had personal issues with me. Then when i made fun of him for giving me 8 final warnings he deleted my status and had someone implement a rule that allows classic to take your uploading privileges.

I still dont see how zelda stuff is allowed when i know nintendo has the copy rights to it. Yet other video game items get denied.

I think it wouldn't hurt to re-examine the upload rules and make some better defined guidelines and then as part of that go and delete and ban certain types of customs that are currently allowed that wouldn't fit those guidelines.

Shields for example: I'm not saying its everyone,but a whole lot of the time I don't see people using anything remotely looking like a shield rather some sort of item to enhance their look. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that. I just don't think certain things should be allowed as shield codes. Like the countless shield codes that serve as some type of advertisement for players "mazes" or "code shops" why do they allow those but any time I try to message some one and have anything in my message close to .com I get a warning for No Advertising? They can have stuff trying to attract people to their house to scam them into farming for them but I cant tell a friend about a website? why????

Seriously? I think the answer is pretty obvious. This game is rated suitable for kids, however people online spamming pornography websites and other X rated stuff would sort of not work with the age rating real well.

I like how there are like 43 different kinds of LOZ shields and stuff in the game but the moment I try to upload a gif/pic as a shield from another game I get denied in no time for Copy right issues.

How is it I can have a fairy from LOZ Link to the past floating around all day but The moment I want to upload a gif'd Metroid from Super Metroid as a shield I get freakin denied? How is it stuff from one game is allowed when something from another is not?

That's pretty ironic; it's obvious Metroid would be less of a deal then Zelda.
Infact, I don't think that Graal should ever get sued.
Look at ****ing MineCraft. If they were sued for everything user created using copyrighted works, the game would be gone.

I dont see how that is copyright, but i think some members of staff just reject anything if it looks like some character they've ever seen. When i was on uploads i was once told off for accepting some heads and bodies, apparently they looked like something from some anime, just because of similar hair or face details. Stupid really.

I think the upload system could also do with space for the uploader to put extra comments. Currently when rejecting a head theres just 5 or 6 general statements to choose from so you cant actually tell the player whats wrong with it half the time.

Same with Era. When I was staff I would have appreciated to explain myself a bit more when rejecting an upload.

The 'reason' buttons on the uploader tool are pretty close together. Might have been an accident, js.
