Roster Vault STEALING

[baseballcardudebanned]

OK, so back in may, i posted a roster called "No Good Players" which had all players replaced by generic, 0 overall players, then, as i was browsing the Vault yesterday, i found a roster "made" by p-kemp, with no title, but the description of "all level 0 players." I downloaded it to see what he did, and to my surprise, he had taken my roster! I do not think it was a coincidence that he used the same names as I did (ex: SP Grady Park, RP Joe Ilsley, SS Joe Jeter). Anyway, can a mod please help me with this, he isnt giving me credit and he is claiming it is his.

THANKS
Oliver

You mean to say that somebody re-uploaded your roster file and is taking credit for creating it, and you're asking a moderator from Operation Sports to handle this situation?

SCEA isn't for another few more blocks. You might have to read up on their EULA and see what he might have violated before doing so, though.

This is one of those things that come with the territory... If you upload something to a public database, there's a good chance that someone else will take it, re-upload it, and claim it as their own...

What bugs me the most is not having a preview option for the player vault, wading through ~1000 Bryce Harpers only to find out they're all the same is so annoying lol

Uploaded rosters are not proprietary -- it's common courtesy to give credit to others for rosters they have created but if someone takes what I upload and claims it as their own, so be it. I'm not going to whine about it. It's in the public -- folks can do what they want. Most of us here at OS try to give credit where credit is due but don't go overboard on this "roster rights" stuff.

I understand where you're coming from. I'm only asking what you think Operation Sports can do about it.

I assume that moderators are on here, and I was hoping that they could contact him and ask him to give credit to me.
