ok, so if you don't want to copyright any already copyrighted file, does it mean that you won't copyright your edited player.big, texture.big files????? than everyone would be able to download them and put them into packages with 2gk files...........

i don't understand now.............

xbaez...

I think there was probably some misunderstanding as to what you and Ariel were trying to copyright. I can understand you wanting to copyright your website, there's nothing wrong with that at all.

I also support you ASKING people to give credit where credit is due. I'll admit that I didn't give any credit to Ariel when I released my Canada Super-Patch last year with 2GK kits.. but I was new to the patchmaking scene and didn't have a good idea of who was responsible for what. If, like you say, credit was a little more widespread last year, it would've been easy for me to figure out all the do's and don'ts and include credit. You can be sure that I'll include credit in my new Canada Super-Patch.

I think you might've been taking a bit of heat for some comments you've made which might be better left 'in-house'. Seems like there's been some issues between yourself and others, but stuff like who stole which files/website revenues/etc.. is 'dirty laundry' which the forums probably aren't the best place to air out.

I'm not party to any of it, and I'm not taking sides at all, but your comments did come off as a bit of finger pointing at 'those who've done you wrong' and (to me anyway) felt akward. I work hard on the Canada Super-Patch for myself and for other Canadian fans (of any nationality!). Now that's probably pretty small by your's and Ariel's standards, but I still work hard and don't get paid a dime for my work. Why do I do it? 'cause I want to... like everyone else who makes patches. I like getting emails letting me know that other people appreciate my work, but I understand if they don't. Lord knows I've downloaded lots of patches and never sent an email to the patchmakers...

socceraccess.com is a great site, but if you put the same kind of energy into the positive promotion of the sites as you did with the "we're not releasing 2GK until we can make everyone give us credit" tactic. You might find the rest of the community a lot more receptive.

Finally, if you've got a letter from EA on your PC, why not post some or all of it here. I'm not calling you a liar, but I for one (and I'm sure many others) would like to see EA's reaction to patchmaking.

cheers.

Yes I agree

"but stuff like who stole which files/website revenues/etc.. is 'dirty laundry' which the forums probably aren't the best place to air out. "
Yes, I totally agree with you. I wanted to keep this private, but this guy, first left my network for adultering banners, and then, he insulted me publically, used the SG FOrums against me, and I REALLY hate that type of actions.

Now, this ""we're not releasing 2GK until we can make everyone give us credit" was not a tactic. Actually, Ariel and I decided not to release the 2GK kits, because these type of actions, made us realize that there was absolutely no respect for me or ariel, and when Ariel was about to leave the scene, I don't remember any of the big sites worry about it, but now that he's disapointed, I found a lot of people against us. Apart from that, we did not started those boards. Also, actually, this forum had a lot of support for ariel and the site, and quite honestly it made us realize that everybody will sell our stuff anyway, so we decide to ask matt holme for his support because SG has the most page views now a days, at least that would be enough for us.

"if you've got a letter from EA on your PC, why not post some or all of it here."
This is not my site. I will post a privacy statement on my site, telling that Fifa 2001 is Copyright of EA SPORTS. That the brands are not used under license, and that we edit part of the game with permission from them.

And you know I wouldn't post that if I wouldn't be certain.
