PSA: Server Roleplay Heaven is stealing patches and addons from other servers.

I will just start off with these messages from the server owner to set the mood:

I was a patch creator for Roleplay Heaven (RPH) back in the day. I created patches like where you can select all the NPC skins in the character creation screen.

I was suddenly banned one day after suggesting having two developers, as development was very slow and nothing happening for months.

I went to my fallback, the server I once called names, Paragon RP. They welcomed me with open arms. I gave them every patch I created for Roleplay Heaven, and even helped them create new ones.

Speed forward to Paragon updating to Legion. RPH finally updates too, after months, and their patches have a slightly uncanny resemblance.

Most of these are just to prevent crashing when using NPC hairstyles in the barbershop. But that last hair was custom made by me, unless they had the same idea. They completely stole everything and removed the servers name.

This isn't the only thing they stole. I had an addon named RPH Helper. After being banned I completely rewrote it for Paragon. They went on Pragon and downloaded my addon, renamed it all to RPH Helper, removed my name, and posted on the forum and said they "Updated" it.

After 11 months banning me, Roleplay Heaven still uses my content, and content of other people they have banned, and I want everyone to be weary, especially after the owner is going on places like Modcraft, and model-changing asking for help, promising money, which I'm sure they wont get in return.

Classic RP server situation. Also, patch stealing is very common among WoW modding servers, there is nothing surprising in that. Just stop caring about them. Those who steal stuff never make things work well in the end.

Work theft is one of the biggest reasons I moved on and away from Wow model editing and server development. I still pop my head in every few months to just see what people are up to... usually nothing new or impressive. Many projects lack professional work, content is often poorly made or with profit in mind .... You know, that thing that kills private severs cause you're suppose to make servers for the love of the game, instead of making a living off of copyrighted content. Its what made me sick about this whole modding and server community, not Model-changing.net specifically cause this site has some of the most honest people, but the general private server scene. Just a bunch of fucking unintelligent shits who couldn't code a full scale game without a blueprint RPG like Wow to piggy-back off of to make money to shove their faces with food and materialistic things they didn't even work their ass off to make the money to pay for it. Plus most of these douche-bags are foreign retards that can barely speak English because they are from Norway or Slovakia so arguments with these inbreeds are rarely legible, you get the gist. You want a prime example, Reznik... some say he died in a car accident, I really hope so. May sound cold, but one less piece of shit in this world to steal work of good people making content for people to enjoy because.... THEY LOVE THE GAME! Fuck any server that takes money, even for items that don't make an impact on the gameplay.

While I agree that stealing work of others and claiming it as your own is despicable at the best, you might consider calming your tits mate. Just a little bit. Reznik is from Czech (I am as well), my fiancee is from Slovakai. If you are here to insult our countries and to wish someone death, you should watch your keyboard more closely and think twice about things you type. Because they make you look like you are no better than people you want to spit on.

I am now completely retired from modding. I am still reading PMs and reacting to them, however, I am not keeping up to date with what is going on in the community and my ability to help you is becoming very limited - I no longer remember some things, I don't have tools installed anymore, and I don't know what is up to date nowadays.

Another fun fact, my patches were never stolen as far as I know. And I work on RP servers (but only on local ones). So... wth are you people doing everywhere else Oo.

That is as far as you know. :) I have seen so many cases of patch stealing in Russian RP community. Including your works btw. I think that was called Erutia or something like that.

If you speak about Altharia, I gave it to one guy who asked for it when project where that map was used ended. If someone has stolen it from him... well, its not even stealing from me anymore. That map has also changed a lot since then. It was also the very first map I've made, which makes it pretty ugly in comparision to my newer stuff :D. Well, now it has Legion models and stuff like that on it as far as I know, but terrain haven't changed much.

No, I mean some newer map.

Chase, don't bring your angst over being banned into a laughable attempt at a false accusation. You know full well why you were actually removed from the RPH community. It was pathetic enough that you became Paragon's lapdog thereafter, but this is just a sad low, especially for a guy I used to think was preddy cool.

"Both servers that have historically expanded skins and hairs have done it again in Legion, and because paragon was Legion first, obviously RPH must be stealing! Look, they're similar, like they always were, but this time it's important because paragon moved first!"

Please.

Let's not forget why you stayed banned from RPH in the first place, Chase. You acted like a child in response. A classical situation of fighting fire with fire, or in your case, fighting fire with spamming gay porn on the RPH forums, isn't that right?

Does anyone see a reason why this topic should be here (especially still opened) anyway?

No one is trying to shut this down. If you can see, this thread stays while, as Amaroth said, it probably should not. Want to know why it does, though? It amazes me to see how some people decided to join the board just to answer this topic :)

Exactly. Chase is just trying to go to whoever will listen to him in order for him to have the opportunity to complain about his sad life.

I've been here (it's how I found Fallen-RP), but it seems the account I made when the site first launched has vanished (or there was an issue with registering, I forget).

 

Also, Noggit chat.

I was talking about other people actually. I remember your nickname, so I did not even notice you made a new account. :)

The only thing I have problem with is flame of people about personal differences and things we know nothing about, things, which are between them and are not really related to modding scene. Well, it is, in a fashion, but you get my point anyway. It is ONLY between you guys and it isn't really related to modding community as whole. While it was interresting to find out how bad situation is in large communities (it kinda made me start liking mine small one again), if you want to start flaming between each other here, use your PM, gentlemen.

Now, feel free to want to kill me for my opinion :D.
