Played roblox today and found this https://www.roblox.com/games/347657685/ ... OCK-SLIMES

They made a lesser version of slime rancher on roblox... AND THEY DIDNT EVEN SAY "Monomi park owns slime rancher, I do not" or anything like that.
COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

[PrismSlime]

besides that, they coulda at least changed some terms. it's literally slime rancher, only it's made from plastic, cardboard, and ms paint. the saddest part is, it actually has some favorites and thumbs up. =/

[JasontheBasin]

yeah. I played it and it's actually decent. and it's heavily unfinished.
Only slimes available are pink and rock (and somehow puddle but there are no puddles in the map, yet there have been puddle plorts sold) and rocks somehow instakill the player. only foods are carrot and cuberry, and the ranch is terrifyingly unfinished. only zone is a very unfinished dry reef, BUT there are two other ranchers for two other people. The reef is different from the slime rancher reef, and there isn't really a moss blanket or anything other than this alternate dry reef and the ranches. Plort market is in a small area that connects to the reef and the 3 ranches.

What's especially copyright infringing about this is that the thing's creator is planning to make it paid. Maybe we should try to take it down.

[jereG]

And how are we going to do that exactly?

[RowletAlex]

Contact the creators and ask them to stop, get monomi park to send them a cease and desist, downvote it, and tell players that it's stolen from another game. I have seen this happen to many fan made Pokemon games (and recently an ark survival evolved mod) and while they weren't trying to get money from it, the cease and desist always worked.

[Kalkrona]

Also, you can already pay to get 2 times the amount of jetpack fuel, so he's already making money of off the property...

this boi know his stuff

[JasontheBasin]

hey guys I gotta question
imma report the game, is this a good paragraph?

"There is a game called slime rancher, made by monomi park. But the creator of this roblox slime rancher didn't say "Monomi Park owns Slime rancher, I don't" or anything like that. The person who made this roblox slime rancher (RSR for short) game allows you to pay robux to double your jetpack fuel, and they soon will be putting RSR in paid access, effectively meaning they're making money off of monomi park's game"

This game has been copied from a game made by the developers of Monomi Park named Slime Rancher. The creator of this copy has not taken permission from the company to create this and upload it on Roblox. Furthermore the creator of the copy also demands for money from players to add additional features in the game, which is illegal as this money does not go to the developers and the game has been illegally created and uploaded to Roblox. This title does not belong to the user who has uploaded the game and as so it should be removed from Roblox.

This is what I would say.

is it okay if I copy n paste what you'd say? looks much better than what i'd say

[DarkCreature97]

Ye go ahead idm

[JasontheBasin]

reported the game! lets hope dis works

[Java]

I've sent a very long warning to the co-owner of the group for the stolen game, as the creator has his messages off.
Keep in mind guys, roblox is useless at banning stolen property unless they think they'll get sued.

Hello, thank you for getting in contact with my co-developer. Your request for me to take down the game will be dismissed unless I am contacted by the creators of the game, not some low life impersonating monomi park. A side note, the fact that you think I'm making money off of the game is obserd. I only make 10% of the sales which makes me 15 'robux'. To monetize the game, I'd have to sell over 6,000 of the game passes, to this date I've 'sold' 3.

Thank you.

I'm afraid the name "Slime Rancher" is copyrighted, actually.
15 Robux is still money. I can steal a £1 coin from someone, and, though it may be insignificant, it is still stealing.
You are, however, right - unless a developer requests you take down the game, it can stay up.
HOWEVER, the name of the game is a copyright infringementand must either be changed or credited to its creator (I would recommend just crediting Monomi Park in the corner). I don't know if you drew it, in which case it's fine, but if the face on the slimes is taken from an official image that is also copyright infringement.

[SimplyBananas]

Hand draw what?

[DarkCreature97]

Hand draw what?

The clouds in the game....

The slimes ma boi, the slimes.

[ziulyx]

SimplyBananas, Can you at least mention that Monomi Park created the original and that this roblox game isn't exactly original. It'll show that you're not someone just trying to steal and profit off someone else's work.

[Tron]

Kill it with FIRE!!!!

[Azazel]

This is disconcerting, but the right thing to do is to bring it to Momomi Park's attention. It is their prerogative to decide how to deal with such fraudulent imitations.

[JasontheBasin]

Idea! lets report someone's post in this thread to get the devs attention?


isn't that how reporting works: you report someone and the devs look at it?

[PrismSlime]

well that only works if someone that made or is advertising the fake slime rancher posts. but pming nick should work well enough.

[Dragonslime]

Nick cant be pmed
He has it turned off
