I'm backish, i think at least
Should someone try to call him out? It's a big forum...plus, we have the proof we need to make him look like a complete idiot.
Ither way you should post a request on the site.

K, I just sent an admin this PM:
On the Pokecreator, there is a sprite directly stolen from the fangame-in-progress Pokemon Topaz (http://www.pokemontopaz.net/forums/index.php) Nothing has been edited about Chloreon, so I'm just going to assume that it was just directly lifted from us without any other permission given.
The spriter is Novoni, a fairly famous spriter for Topaz and the Text RPG Orange Islands. She NEVER gives permission for anyone to use her sprites, so on behalf of Topaz and Orange Islands (where Chloreon will eventually be used once the Topaz region opens up there, as the two sites are both affiliates), I must ask you to remove it and possibly infract the user, if you can. Novoni does NOT tolerate sprite thieves.
It can be found at http://www.pokestadium.com/pokecreator/163 for this site, and http://www.pokemontopaz.net/sprites/, for the Topaz Pokedex's URL. It is number 128. Also, the topic that drew my attention to this plagerism can be found here > http://www.pokemontopaz.net/forums/s...2064#post12064.
If you wish to speak with Novoni instead, just let me know. Thank you!
Tell novoni i nead to use some sprites for party pokemon animations

No need for that, MK, you can just be bold and do the icons.
Also, looks like this is resolved:
Oh, and another thing, MK...as much as Bacon God is indeed a troll, there's no reason to flame him within your signature.Hello, I received your private message.
Yeah, it's obvious that it's stolen from Topaz. No further evidence is
required, I've removed that creation now.
I'm aware that a lot of people steal things, most notably from Arkeis,
taking screenshots of Youtube sprite videos (most horrible quality
"sprites") and sometimes from Topaz too. It's hard to control them;
it's the Internet, and then you combine it with a lot of 8-year-old
kids.
I didn't infract that user though, as I haven't explicitly stated that
using someone else's work gets you warned or banned. People submit
recolored versions of official Pokemon sprites (other people's work),
and they submit pictures and drawings made of others of things like
Chuck Norris, Mario, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson etc. Either way that
user isn't active anymore so I don't think we'll see him stealing
anything else from Topaz.
Thanks for bringing this up
sorry

Sorry for the off-topicness of this question, but why/when was Bacon God banned (I haven't been able to be too active here for a few weeks, so I've missed some stuff)?
Back to the main topic:
I hate when morons like that one guy steal sprites; not only is it not his work, but it's living proof he has no artistic skills.
Helpful tip of the day:
Want to become a great PI? Always remember to zip up your pants.
Well, it wasn't too long ago, and it was because of a comment along the lines of "you all suck" when we had done nothing to provoke him. =|
I'm glad that the site admin dealt with it cleanly.
wrong place, buuut http://www.pokestadium.com/pokecreator/72
Already sent something in on that, BTG.
mefan3 entered a contest and used Topaz sprites.
He also made a couple others, but they aren't entered in any contests so it's not as serious.
I PM'd the contest holder, so nobody else needs to do that. I'm not sure if we allow those sorts of things, but the contest entry should not be allowed because in the original contest video it says, and I quote:No copying anybody else's idea or stealing their sprite.
I got a message back from the contest holder, Dolphinz514. He says, and I quote:I'm not sure if this will change anything, but I just wanted people to know this.thank you. i honestly had no clue that there was a website for fake pokemon, and i just found that there was a few weeks ago. Since i had not known about it until after i posted my contest, i will allow it this time, but i will not next time. this way it's fair. (in my opinion anyways)
I don't think Dolphinz quite understands. We are not a website for fake Pokemon, we have been given permission by the creators of those sprites to use them in any way related to Topaz. If it explicitly said "no stealing their sprite" I think it's fair that mefan3 be removed with simple Tsunall etc. recolours.
Perhaps you should talk to him about it if you have a Youtube channel. Do you have a Youtube channel?
I do, though I don't remember the password.
I guess I'll talk to him when I get the chance.
Just left a message on Dolphinz's YouTube channel.
Ehh i took it off, but i still had two sprites where i slightly used topaz but my youtube videos don't get mre than 5 views anyway XD
Apparently some fan-game that's stolen sprites from Topaz, arkeis, and Cave of the Dragonflies. Just thought I'd bring it up. Not sure if this was actually going to turn into a fan game, or if the person's given up, or how much progress there is, but I just thought I would bring it up.
I'm not super worried. CotD is already aware, and it's not like there is much going on. The guy (klinecars3) seems to be putting this folder together, but I can't find any development past that. He has a Youtube channel and accompanying website, and nothing about any of this is posted anywhere.
He's, like, ten.
Hello, my original name on this site was BaconGod. It has been years since I checked on this site but I want to let you know in a very calm matter that it was not me that did it. I am sorry that your creation was stolen and I apologize for what I said years ago but again it was not me.
