Here's the idea...
You can report a place for being stolen from another user using the "Report Abuse" button.
There's another option saying perhaps "Stolen content." which then allows you to send ROBLOX a link of the original content, and then of the subsequent copied content.
Then a staff member or robot (depending on their sophistication, maybe a robot for textures etc, as they can easily scan both images for likeness, and having a person check out the likeness of a game.) can check how similar the items are.
Then it either denies they are copies (not an exact likeness but maybe inspired or something like that.) or accepts they are a copy and continues the process.
It will then message (Using notifications maybe.) both the original creator and the copier.
The original creator can choose to take certain actions. Removing the content completely, or having a generated "Credit" message under the image, like "This content was originally uploaded by _______", or no action at all to be taken, say if the person wants the content to be open source free.
The copier will be notified of the change and whose the original creator, this'll allow them to actually acknowledge the original creator if their intent was to do so.
This will help protect people from stolen content and actually fuel creativity instead of copying somebody else's stuff to become popular.
Here's some reasons why...
This has been a personal issue for me due to being a clothing designer, as I created this clothing for my personal use, and a later version for a Targaryen group which is in my inventory:
https:##############################################s########################################################But, if we all look at this:
https://www.roblox.com/catalog/browse.aspx?CatalogContext=1&Subcategory=12&Keyword=Targaryen&LegendExpanded=true&Category=3
https://www.roblox.com/catalog/browse.aspx?CatalogContext=1&Subcategory=14&Keyword=Targaryen&LegendExpanded=true&Category=3
We can clearly see, its been completely copied a ludicrous amount of times.
That, as a designer with a business aim, means I am not getting money from this, meaning I am inevitably losing business.
Which is why I am suggesting this entire thing. I don't want anyone else who creates something to be short-changed because of an unimaginative person decides "hur hurr I want that ill steal it for my own uses".

Support, it will stop all of the Contamination copy's on ROBLOX & the other games
BUT, what about games like Guest Defense where the creator made it open source for the public?
The forums are for all, not 1 group |

But copying is half good...
Dumb creators of shirts making them like "65 R$" and naming them "ORIGINAL".
Copies have cheapest prices.

I agree.
If someone puts in the effort of making something. They have the right to charge what they want for there Hard work.
Buying copy is like buying knockoff DVDs. It doesn't give the original creator a reason to make more. If he not going to profit from his time spent on making it. |

@Polenn
The major issue with the copying was not that it was overpriced, it was just so widespread everyone got the high res image and just uploaded it itself.
People copy and make their copy overpriced, and people still buy it. |
|

Well, copying is better for buyers
Cause we can find our fav clothing better |

SUPPORT! Someone reuploaded my GFX onto their game without my consent and ROBLOX has yet to do anything about it. (It's a copyrighted work too, but ROBLOX has no reporting feature specifically for copyright infringements.) |

Luna use copylock

@Scepti
There's no copylock on dev-ian-tart. I posted the link in the forums and he must have screenshotted it and uploaded it. It was quite stupid of him as well, as my watermark is still on it.. |
|
|
If it's on that then why are you posting it on roblox?

Because... he uploaded it onto his game and there's no report feature or copyrighted/stolen work, which is what this thread was posted about...
I even emailed ROBLOX and the only thing they said was to report him. Which I have. So... it proves that they have no specific reporting system for copying. |

There is a report feature.

I had an idea on this subject where you could lock models as your own. Long story short, I don't want to repeat myself and I'm too lazy to find my thread. I'll post it later (maybe).
