If you don’t use exact characters or story premise, you can’t be accused of theft because you chose to place them in a similar setting. I can’t remember who it was, but someone here said they took the concept of Vikings and applied it to Tsavo lions. I liked the idea that I borrowed the concept for a Tsavo OC I recently bought. It’s all in the matter of how you execute that idea. That’s why you don’t see shows getting sued by Warner Brothers for copying off of The Flintstones.
Agreed.
When you find yourself trying to explain something to someone who thinks fanon is canon and they are persistent it’s canon, just stop and walk away. They won’t be reasoned with and will argue that fanon is canon. It’s only gonna give you acid stomach trying to talk to them.
Thanks for the heads up warning!
I can certainly pick yours out of a crowd! That’s a good thing, esp if something gets stolen. We’ll know it’s yours and know to contact you immediately.
Mom’s are like that LOL
Aye, same here and Target is useless as well. It’s as if TLG merch is reaching a dry spell.
Me and another fellow person from a AMV studio I’m in confronted her about it. Her sister ended up attacking us over this saying we were wrong for calling her out, that we were rude bullies. I took screen shots of everything also, cause the girl deleted everything of the animation and the convo we had. So she made a video about how I am making her leave youtube bc I exposed her theft. She admited she was wrong but excuses herself by saying “oh it was only 9 seconds of it!” [PART 2]
I politely told her that I am not trying to make her leave, just that I wanted to show her she was doing something very wrong. Her account was full of people defending this girl as well, that I was just a hater and to ignore me. Her sister dramatically says shes gonna kill herself bc my friend told her that she was behaving immaturely over the girl being called out. And now this girl has quit youtube all bc I didn’t let her have her way and use stolen animation. [PART 3]
And now I’m just like: jesus was calling her out even worth all the shit that happened today rofl Have you ever dealt with dramatic people like this? Also apparently these girls are 11 so it probably explains why they had such a temper tantrum over having their art theft called out o_o
They’re 11, that’s your answer. It’s rare that I encounter 11 year olds that don’t think they’re God’s gift to the world that can do no wrong on youtube. Unfortunately, lack of brain function to recognize and do the right thing at that age is pretty much why they’re so quick to throw a fantrum when approached.
Hell, there are adults that throw super fantrums when exposed as thieves. Look at NaironDragon and iGraphix or iLynx or what ever their name is (I apologize as I forget), both are young adults, are old enough, yet when caught stealing from other artists, they lose their shit and threaten to quit. Then come back when enough blind sheep lick their ass.
You shouldn’t let them guilt trip you into thinking that you are a bully. Chances are they don’t know what bullying looks like and if you approached them politely and kindly, they’re just spouting words to make them feel better about what they did.
