OH my god
We've done it folks, we've found the pinnacle of hypocrisy

it's over


Bin for the love of god stop posting in this thread, we're going to continue to discuss build stealing whether you like it or not, at this point you're just being a richard to everyone and hurting your own image.

it's loving stupid, it isn't stupid to point out you're being stupid
Yeah but they are being called out based on what you think is a stupid discussion. Them and the rest of the thread obv think it is a topic worth discussing so why be an ass about it?

them and the rest? two loving people? everyone else left dude did you not get the memo

Hide your name + ID in more spots than one. Hide it in walls of buildings as well.
My city that I used to host was stolen once (that I know of) and I was banned for coming to the server with it.

Yeh usually when I join servers with build stealers its always the simple hi....

Then they kick, but they don't ban, probably to avoid being drama'd.

My point still stands.

What are you even saying?

Eh, I'm talking to the person I quoted.

I think Adin completely misread everything I said. I said notepad. Not console.

Yup. That happened.
Well, to a slightly smaller degree, I still don't think a build stealer would put forth that kind of effort to remove credits, or know to go through notepad. That said notepad would be a lot easier than console.

ip uhh i think you're going a little too far into murphy's law here

what adin's saying makes sense. someone who intends to steal and take credit for a build is more than likely to be someone that is constructively inept and looking to be recognised as a good builder, without the effort that's involved with actually improving their work.
more often than not this tends to be young children and otherwise people who likely do not have the knowledge and patience required to sift through a text file of an entire build (which is likely to be very complex).

someone who has the patience and know-how to remove certain bricks from a build using notepad, let alone console likely doesn't have a direct need to steal credit for the build. on the off chance that someone like this does steal credit, it's extremely probable they have an ulterior motive related to the original creator(s) of the build, which is comparatively extremely rare.
that being said, there is a possibility for there to be a person that is able to build well (optional) and edit .bls files in notepad with the intention of stealing the credit for it. this is not impossible, but it's exceedingly rare, and the idea to (not) act primarily based on this being possible should be taken with a grain of salt.

That was like reading poetry, but better


All I wanted was a few simple confessions. Instead I got 56 replies of arguments with other people.

lol wtf happened here?
people debated how to effectively protect their work

You made a tiny drama about someone stealing your build. Whatever possessed you to believe ANYONE was going to post with the intent of admitting to stealing someone else's work, that's not gonna happen. What happened instead, was people debating how to protect your build. The only argument that occurred was when Bin got involved. Outside of that, it was friendly banter over build protection, nothing more or less.

Kish once again getting pissy other people's opinions, what else is new?
i'm not getting pissy nor were there any opinions to be "pissy" about
you are being sloppy in an attempt to advise people on protecting their work, and that is just too stupid to not point out
