Ok so this has been a serious problem for too long. It's actually lead to me giving up on designing clothing.
For too long now, abusing the asset feature of ROBLOX, people have been able to steal clothing from other designers.
It's quite frankly irritating and stupid. ROBLOX Game Developers don't just have their games uncopylocked so people can steal them? What's so different about developers.
I am petitioning for ROBLOX to add a feature that hides the asset image of clothing for everyone but the owner. This allows people to paste the ID into games so can still place the product on morphs or people and such, but cannot actually steal it.
I personally have lost many sales due to the constant spam of my clothes being stolen. For example I lost 5K approximately with my ROBLOX University items being stolen. I lost over 20K sales with my Twitch themed items I released a year back.
Therefore it's time for a change. Removing the chance to steal items forces those who copy items, out of the industry. This also incentivises designers to be more authentic. Clothing designers deserve to be treat like game developers.
