Using sets without credit?
 

I'm not sure if this is the right section to post so please move it if it's wrong:)

So I found someone who uses a set I made without credit.
What should I do?
I pm-ed the person and said he/she could use it but he/she should please give me credit.
What should I do if he/she doesn't reply or won't do it?

Report to a mod is all I guess you can do or publicly name and shame them

The person apologized and said it was just a mistake and he/she grabbed it and forget to mention me~

Thanks for your help!

Glad to hear everything went well! You dealt with it the right way. I've had to deal with this problem a few times.

Plus, your work is gorgeous so I can see why people would want to use it~

^You too?

Ahh thanks sakura!!! Hearing something like that from a person who is awesome at graphics is like a really big compliment!!!

She said she would give me credit but she still didn't change her signature~

^That might be the case, but sooo many people do credit on AHS and even I knew how to do it although I never did before~
I mean you see it all around here.
I think I'll wait a bit and look what happens~ I'm not sure...

LOL you shared the person's name.How classay.

everybody makes mistakes, everybody has those days... :shrug

I don't fault her.

Yes...but she could have at least immediately credited her. Which she hasn't. I'd do the exact same as Labello, she worked hard on her sets. Least the person could do is put labello in the sig. :P

well, sometimes even after i update my sig, it doesn't truly update itself til i post on the forum. and sometimes my older posts still have my old sig...

just take it to a mod and let them deal with it.

i understand it's frustrating to have someone take your work, but she apologized and said she would fix it. "publicly shaming" (i lol'd) someone is childish.

thank goodness it is settled! what a horrifying situation.

Revealing someone's username is so tacky.

Well... LOL she never really publically shamed her...the name given was [~~~~~]...and I've never seen that username it sounds just like a pseudonym to me.

[~~~~~]

[~~~~~]

ohh, you do not deserve that :love emoticon :no :gnash

I stand corrected LOL. :D

Well, to be honest I don't really think that it's a major thing. I mean it's not like Labello including her user is gonna direct a torch-squad to her house. XD
I think she deserves the emoticon. :D It's a nice set. :D

:yes it really is a nice set. she totally deserves that emoticon. it's just cruel to say otherwise.

it is a nice set :yes

Yeah sometimes people don't really know... I mean unless you have a shop and the rule is that you've gotta be credited, otherwise when you post stuff on the show off your latest works or ayu works thread... people might just take them (cos they're so gorgeous!)... but yeah, at least everything's all right now. :)

I'm sorry!!! It was a mistake! I didn't want to share her name! really!!!! But sometimes I'm just stupid and do thinks like that. I just cutted it on the wrong place.
I am absolutly sorry!!!

And I never wanted to say the name. As you can see on the posts above I never said the name but always he/she or just she.

@Lee_410: I understand why you said that but actually I did not want to be like that. It was my mistake.


I am really sorry.

Labello, you don't have to apologise to anyone. You've done nothing wrong.

Thank you.
But I am feeling bad about that! That's why I apologized.

Everything's been settled now, so this thread is being closed. The longer it's open the more bashing and misunderstanding can come from it. Labello, if you have any other problems please PM any staff member or use the report icon, and we will take care of it ASAP. :)

^Okay. I''ll do that next time.
I'm really sorry for what happend.

Accidents happen :yes It's ok. Everyone's alright now
