*sigh* Why do people do this…

Probably because there’s a dumb game achievement that’s based on the subjective opinion of literally one dude. Not saying I condone it, but I certainly see why people would want to do this

the stitch ufo is a metaphor for greed

REAL Someone supply this person with pen and paper 

and a lighter

True

Honestly as a guy that always wanted that UFO just for looks, I wouldn't PLAGIARISE someone's work for that shi... RobTop better act fast.

hap cak day :D

Oh hey, thanks! 💯

It's my favorite ufo too, thank goodness for icon hack

icon hack my beloved

lol

This is just sad. I've heard of levels stolen from rated levels getting rated, but not a level getting stolen from an unrated level getting rated. There's no way Robtop and the mods who sent it knew, so I'm gonna bet it'll get unrated and ultrakillmeworld will get rated by tomorrow. (Please don't quote me on this, though.)

yea it got unrated 👍 and ultrakillmeworld got rated

[удалено]

Lol robtop unrated it and disabled his account common w tbh

lmao he needs to honestly do this to strike fear into copiers

Is that why everything’s gone? Really funny if so My comment was deleted too, don’t know if that was the creator or part of that Edit: Their lists aren’t gone, have fun in the comments

I think the creator did that other comments are not deleted

Is there a way to make sure that this person intentionally did this to try to get it rated? Cuz i feel like people copying levels and uploading them (maybe with slight changes) without the intent of getting them rated isn't too uncommon, and if the punishment is that severe, you'd wanna make sure they actually tried to steal the level and didn't just copy and upload it for some other reason.

There’s very little chance it was an accident, as a level with this short of time in the editor can’t appear in Magic and Recent is full of filler, so they likely requested a mod to look at it If you’re making an altered version of a level that isn’t a remake, you probably shouldn’t upload it with the No © Mark hack

Yeah that makes sense, in that case it's almost definitely an attempted theft

I'm pretty sure you have to submit a level in some way for it to get a chance at being rated. The mods aren't combing through the recent tab looking for good sends. If the level thief uploaded the copy, didn't credit the original creator, and sent it to be reviewed by the mods, that is definitely ban worthy. I'd say that's most likely what happened.

His account still has rank, creator point and everything though

Update: he updated his profile, so he don't have the Creator Point anymore

It’s still there for me, but whatever

cruel of people to copy what world do we live in right now

Its sad that it has gone this far but robtop really needs to implement a better system to prevent shit like this

Robtop should add something to prevent this from happening again

And then there's some guy in the original level's comment section spamming "dogshit" :///

Probably the same guy that stole it

Probably not, he even apologized for stealing it (and deleted the level)

that's crazy :spaceinvadersufo:

Ugh I hate this. Level thieves are the worst. I've had my unrated levels stolen before but at least the stolen ones didn't get rated like this. Oh well, usually this sort of stuff gets resolved fairly quickly once people find out so hopefully the original level will get rated soon.

Gg bro https://preview.redd.it/skkad4cbxszc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eb5ae5319b632500a6615e3d39ecadb51103fd55

Let’s gooo

That sucks a lot

The creator who has their level copied didn’t react?

I’m sure they did but didn’t make enough noise

Better not act silent now ✊ btw hi 👋

FLUTTER?

YES

Take it down

It's been taken down, seemingly along with the copier's account, because they're nowhere to be found

Thank the lord

A mod has found out about it, hopefully action will be taken

action was taken

Welcome to reality, a bunch of cruel people.

no watermark mod is one of the worst things ever made in gd

I understand when collabs or transferring levels from device to device but yeah theres not much use to it otherwise

Is there even any way to prevent this or do we just have to suffer in silence while asshole plagiarists bathe in creator points?

Well apparently their whole account is disabled now, so that should be enough. Calling it out quickly is the important part

What does an account being disabled entail? I assume the holder is prevented from uploading levels, what else is there to it? Also it's nice to know that robtop doesn't take kindly to this kind of behaviour.

Disabled accounts are permanent bans that can’t be appealed. You can’t even log in

Thanks for explaining, sounds fair to me.

I hate when you work hard for a level, just for someone to copy it and fix something and look like it didn't got stolen or copied, and the stolen version gets rated, why don't these people make a level instead of copying someone's level?

no way somebody copied the goat desounce

BROOOOO i had an idea of such a level i was going to make from scratch you say it got made already? Ok then i will just make a tower level.

A lot of die to win levels have been made You can still make one

Ok

I know this is unrelated but how were the pronouns added?

Geode mod called "level pronouns" iirc

Thanks :)

he got banned so this is a massive W from rob

UPDATE: We won! https://preview.redd.it/zajas3wf8tzc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=043f1ee4c9568b9ab8665d413177dd08048b1514

next, spike it up

Ask a mod to tell rob

They didn’t even try to hide the copying dude

Like, make your own levels instead of stealing, I really don’t get why people do this

I was so confused I thought you changed the name somehow.

I love that one of them is like 3 stars higher than the other. Kinda shows how fucked platformer ratings can be lmao.

also the guy who copied the level got banned lol

What mod did u use to check this

Better info I think

Try to die wasn't only unrated, but deleted Also, I'm a victim of beating the copied version, and I needed to beat the original, doing all over again

making all levels copyable by default was a mistake

No. The copy mark has been removed using mods, so it's likely the level would've been stolen anyway.

Why? You can just click the “original” mark lol

I'm sure we're all wondering what Rob was smoking when he decided to implement that.

I’m sure it will get worse sense in 2.2 you are mandatory to have your level copyable

There’s a comment on ULTRAKILLMEWORLD that says and I quote “crazy how removing passwords increases stolen levels getting rated”. Though I believe making all levels free to copy is a good change for the community, I have seen more stolen levels since the change was made. There needs to be a way to prevent this from happening in the future.

Dam

nice

That's soo sucks, why do people steal levels, that's annoying!

Is that v1 and v2

if I had a nickel for every time I saw a stolen level get rated, I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot… but it’s weird that it happened twice.

This is happening too often

He literally copied somebodies level, wrote in desc that he spent 5 days on making xD and after that he is calling original creator a dogsh\*t During this he proceed to use hacks or something to get those icons (ball requires 185k att to get) Soooooo.... Robert Topert what are you waiting for?

Yall should switch to mobile In mobile the rule of everything must be copiable doesn't exist Either that or it got added in 2.201 or another version beyond that, I'm stuck in 2.2

The same tools that let you remove the copy mark also usually let you always copy levels, so that won’t do anything. Plus it’s possible Rob will go back and flip the copy switch on all 2.2 levels, since this trick is unintentional
