I got this guy named Kupo who I recently gave version m of Crescent Dyne RPG, its about 55% completed 256x256 fully custom terrain. Done tile-by-tile and has every blend I have ever found contained on it.
He recently sent me a message which says "Payback's a biznatch" with a link to an online download of my map... I am afraid that he will post it on SEN and people will download my map. It is not protected and it is 100's of hours of work put into it.
I would greatly appreicate it if I had your support in closing any thread/download point which he opens to release my unfinished map.
Sorry to bother you and... I hope you can either send this message to someone else that can help me further, or I really don't know...
I hope I don't have to deal with this alone.
Heh, if you do nothing, thx anyway fo your time in reading this message.
WoodenFire is scared of this future.

In long run we cannot stop him spreading map on battle.net but we can stop it happening here at staredit.net by supsending or banning his account or ip ban. Really this something like map stealing expection spreading a map that isnt his and is unfinished. Wooden has stop trusting people now i think and only trust people he knows wont spread file. This is a sad thing to happen.

Omg, this again? -_-
I suppose the only thing you can do is delete posts with the link in it. You can't really suspend him, can you? He didn't break any rules...

Technically, it's not map stealing because he isn't going to slap his name on it, as far as I know. Even though I think it's WoodenFire's fault that he trusted someone with his map, I do think we should remove any links, attachments and posts with the map, and that's it.
That's why I barely trust anyone with my unprotected maps. I've only given unprotected maps to like 5 people, not to some random user you just met today named Kupo.

Remove links. He gets the normal punishment one would for posting an illegal map. Otherwise, the tension between him and Woodenfire is a personal conflict, where we should not have to take part in.

"illegal map"?
There's no such thing. I can't trust either side in the story.
Also, how can you stop all the links? That would require reading everything!
Even so, once he spreads it, I don't see how it could be stopped.

If you find or get a report pointing you to a link, remove it. I'm not asking you to police anything.

Well just adding more of the story, not making it right.
Woodenfire has taken kupo under his wing as an apprentice or something, teaching him terraining tricks and whatnot. (I have no idea what exactly that means, but thats how wooden puts it.) Apparently Woodenfire has been stealing stuff from kupo and calling him names and making fun of him. (Which is a lot of what woodenfire does, he builds upon other peoples ideas and has an ego problem.) This is his retaliation.
