Plagiarism

hi,

i just wondering if there was a way to stop people from putting their name on somone else's creations.

i keep having this same problem. people put their names on my sims. they don't even change the sims clothes.

no modifications at all. there is this one girl who steal most of mine sims and the one's she doesn't like she will put trash in the comment section.

i did ask her to stop. but she just keeps doing it. and also put my work in her lybary.

  • Moved from the Battlefield 4 section to The Sims 4.

    Please do not title posts in all caps in the future.

  • It sucks, but I don't think there is anything we can do about that. 
    Problem is, there are a limited options in the Sims so someone one day will make the same Sim. 
    You can't copyright that. Know that you choose to put something in the library because you want to share it, and if people really like your work they will share it. I think it's a compliment for you that she is "stealing" your creations, because the must be very well made.
    And that way a lot more people will see what amazing stuff you make, even if it doesn't carry your name anymore. But, you shared it, for the world to see right? The world is seeing it that way.

    Remind yourself that you don't get paid to make stuff in the Sims, and that games are for fun. After all Maxis and EA own this game, not you.

    Thanks you for your reply, sorry it took me so long to respond to it, as for the caps, there is not much i can do as the capt button gets stuck from time, to time. So far no one seemed to mind until now. As for not owning what i create, i do feel what i make is mine regardless weather i own a company or not. This company. I am also a big believer in common curtsy, didn't mean to be offensive in any way, i was just wondering if there was a way to stop someone from putting nasty remarks over and over on a daily basics on the comment section, that was all. The problem has been resoled since. Someone was kind enough to inform me on a way to stop g that kind of harassment. Have a good day,..

    EDIT: Changed caps again. If you have problems with your button, I recommend this page: http://convertcase.net/
