we can probably resolve this guys. We don't need any unnecessary beef between both our communities. I hope in the future we can work this out in an orderly fashion. I can say as an OG skial member that we should work something out. Because it was skial who inspired me to become the staff member i am today.

I don't think your community owner wants to resolve this. He got a warning to stop when someone noted that 100% of the maps on that server came from us.
Instead of admitting guilt, he denied it, claimed the maps were from his "mapper" and forged the dates on the thread, and got the thread deleted from archive.org, probably so he can correct the mistakes in his forging.
Today they have finished ripping all our maps and set up a THIRD zombie escape server, in the same location as ours.

Considering the extensive steps the leader of that community is taking to fake the origins of the maps which fall under protection of the copyright laws as skial paid for and owns them. (DMCA)
Only thing he can and should do if its bottigers wish is remove and trash the maps and make a public statement that he ripped them from skial and is very sorry for it. (this is only my view not skial/bottiger).

Well I know this is off topic. It’s just like on my 600 lb life he denies eating any unhealthy food and claims it’s water weight. Moral: don’t deny, lie, argu, tell the truth, get off your butt and something preductive, don’t 600 hours straight coping other people’s work.
The owner of the other community said that he got the maps from a mapper "as far as I know". I don't understand how that alone is not a huge red flag to people in his community or anyone on looking. You're basically admitting that you either do not know how you got the map where they originally came from order using that as an excuse to lie because you stole them. Little things in language are always the most overlooked, especially when you're lying sack of shit.
As the original author of those maps I am very disappointed in the other community and how they're unfairly taking credit for stuff they didn't make.

They have been sent. 2/3 hosts have replied so far. Just added a new anti-decompile trick to our arsenal as well.

There's no real clause as to him copying something word for word off of a profile, it just makes him look like he has no original ideas for himself, its shameful that they'd have to stoop to copying literally everything off of your profile because they are too lazy to do the work for themselves, looks clownish to be honest

Yeah I don't really care about my profile description being copied by itself, but he also copied my ZE announcement with the same sentence structure with just a few words replaced.
