Staredit Network

I had the privledge of deleting 15 stolen maps, and 2 members (who were the same person) and all their comments today.

The thing is, I noticed that it had been going on for a while. I was wondering why no one told me before.

I don't have the time to check every comment, but you being the people of Staredit Network who browse through our files, look at comments, look at files, can typically see offensive comments and stolen maps.

I encourage everyone to step up and PM me whenever they suspect a stolen map (I prefer they send me the orginal, unstolen too) or, whenever they see a offensive comment towards a file.

ACTIONS WILL BE TAKEN AGAINST THESE LOSERS!

I apologize to these map makers and whoever browses for the immature actions of these people. We're aware that some files were unfairly rated due to bias.

In Staredit Network v5, we're hoping to improve the ratings of maps and reporting of stolen maps/abusive comments.

The same person eh.
I'm guessing that was a permenant IP ban then.
How exactly will SEN v5 stop this kind of thing?

We'll make better admin tools to oversee more of the comments being made, and make it far easier for members to report abusive reviews and comments plus stolen maps through a quick and easy push of a button and filling out a small form.

Who was the person and what maps?

Btw, I love your avatar xD, where you get it?

I wont say the person.

And I can't say the person in my avatar. The search will result in some links (although not common) ahem, naked.

tsk tsk to those map stealers, melee or UMS?

UMS of course. There aren't as many melee stealers I know of (but there are some).

Lmao.

Heheheh! Some people are too lazy to create their own maps.. thats lame T_T

Wow....
Map stealers.
Haha, you change your avatar so often. I liked the fish head avatar too.

Whoever made a map unprotector is a stupid moron, now people are getting their maps stolen by that one moron .

Heimdal created SCUnprotect if I remember correctly. But it was Archn who took it and spread it. I'd blame the spreder, not the creator.

Heimdal made it to see if he could... but Archon just stole it and called it his. Heimdal had no intention of it being released.

Wait ... starcraft unprotect unprotect? Double the unprotection!

Doesn't 2 negatives equal a positive? So it's actually a protector!

Lol... Archn was a cool guy... and he was actually a good mapmaker. I think he created the first BanMark program too which is the gayest hack in the world

You can't really steal melee maps. Actually you could, but noone would ever notice because there's no way of showing the players in the game/pregame lobby that you even made it in the first place. That's Y i think melee map making isn't as popular; it's harder for people to recognize you for your melee maps

Okay please, lets not get into another protection debate. We already had one last week with the trigger viewer, and if I recall correctly, Trigger Viewer won the debate

Bottom line, you submit stolen maps that you stole yourself, you get banned. Forever. Period. Dark Lunitic tried to hide the fact he stole the maps by submitting them under a different IP and different username. It didn't stop me from finding out he was the same person stealing maps.

MillenniumArmy, you can steal melee maps. Just by replacing the name in Scenario Properties with yours. Its just not as popular because people don't commonly look at the name.

Cool, i'll keep a look out for MAP STEALERZ!!! Anyways, theres a topic about his stealy wayz in the Feedback forum.

Lets keep this stuff going.
*warhammer40000 is pumped up on crime bustin

Hey, lets make a program called- MAMS! MAMS! Mappers Against Map Stealing!
I'll shut up now.

Damn right! Its so good that it unprotects and steals it for you so you don't have to!

wait, it is aB unprotector unprotector. If 2 negatives make a positive, then the positive of the map being protected would make it back into being unprotected! OMG IM SO AWESOME!!

Positive (+) of a map being protected (+) doesn't equal negative...

+ and + == + (correct)
+ and + != - (wrong)

Here's a little integer lesson

Addition
+ and + = +
- and - = -
+ and - = (Depends on the sign of the larger number, vice versa)

Ex.

-42 + 25 = -17

Multiplication

+ and + = +
- and - = +
+ and - = - (vice versa)

Hope it wraps up

If you unprotect an unprotected map, you're not doing anything.

If you heal a healed person, you're not killing that person.
If you kill a killed person, you're not bringing the person to life.

And I think it was just a typo to begin with... -.-

err...no.

Am i not not stupid?
The actual answer woud be yes if you thought i was an idiot. But using your problem itd be no. Which its not. HA! Your math doesnt work everywhere....err...
