If someone 'steals' your build, they're probably doing so because it looks good. Just be happy that they see it worthy of having their own copy.

I agree with this. You said that like to know that it was stolen, but what if you don't even know? What if people are enjoying you're build without your knowledge so you benefit in absolutely no way.? How do you feel about that? <- Dr. Phil :P

If there was someone out there who happened to have one of my builds, and I didn't even know, then really I guess, since I didn't know someone else had it, I wouldn't feel anything about it. :S
Although, I understand what you mean. I'd just be glad that people are getting to see my stuff and play on it, even if someone else is hosting it without permission, or claiming it as their own.
They could claim it as their own all they want. People are getting to use it and have fun with it, and that's all that matters.
Plus, if I was confronted on whether I had built something of my own, that someone had stolen and claimed as their own, I would say "Yes, I did build that". And if they didn't believe me, I wouldn't go out of my way to prove them. I'd just be happy with it. I can allways build more stuff. And usually, people have seen the stuff I've built.

If I am building a nice castle, sure I let other people save it. If I am making a giant TDM map with landscape, I use the custom pack. If I didn't, I would later find out spartanmario117 is using my build and filling up his server with tons of addons, spamming weapons all over the build, and his server becomes number one on the list. And don't tell me only good servers make the toplist, because right now l023R's city RPG and Rykuta's mario challenge are the top 2. The people that populate the every day server only care for the add-ons. Only 1/5 of the people in my server actually join because they know it will be cool.

The only thing you can prevent server-sided is saving of events.

Doesn't it send some sort of request to the server when a client tries to save events? I'm sure a script could just kick them as soon as that request is received.
