Alwin Alcott Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 again... get rid of the idea of copybots ... You have no proof at all it was botted, in contrary, a bot will leave as less traces as possible to keep undedected. And you can do nothing against it., Nearly everything can be copied, except scripts, and the rigged part of mesh. If you know how to use google you will find hundreds of links with info about real copybot. where do copybotted items show up? not that difficult to guess ... not only in SL there are several copies of SL online. Only the ones who have the same base can use sl items. But most won't allow use of it. Only when you hve the rights on a object it will be subject to action when you file a DMCA, if you only are sidely involved nothing will happen.

Where are copybotted items likely to turn up? In SL or one of its Clones. Seriously, the quality of the content in SL is so poor it would be virtually worthless any where else.

Could try doing something like Ebola Monkey Man. But first you got to know who the perps are.

Really, I think irihapeti summed things up quite well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela Galli Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I have had my whole 4 sim store copied and distributed full perm many times. On other grids people have opened multi-sim stores filled with my products. Houses have been given out by store owners as hunt gifts or sold on the MP in SL. The only reason I am still in business is that there remain enough good honest people in SL to keep me in business. God bless them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HughJegow Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 This thread is a conclusive demonstration that if something isn't worth doing, it's certainly not worth doing twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
