WonderGamer Wrote:I'm the only one acting badly?!?. You mean the forth post in this thread didn't count (I actually avoided saying anything until it was already out there, I saw this thread literally seconds after it was posted)?
Yes, you are, and that's correct, it doesn't. It was made before the creator stated that the assets had been used with permission. Your comments, on the other hand, first ignored the creator's statement to that effect, and then, when they stated it again to you directly, you stated your disbelief of that, and your determination to kick up a fuss about it anyway. Which you then went ahead and did, absolutely unapologetically. Even now, after a location has been shown where the assets are available to acquire with permission, you are *still* kicking up about it, and making it your personal mission to shout about. You said yourself that either way it was between the creator and the original art owner, but you continually demonstrated that that comment wasn't made in good faith at all, and that you are not, in fact, prepared to let it rest there, or apologise for your accusations.
As much as I tried to let it go & ignore this thread.
Of course you did... You tried so hard to let it go that you went and took it upon yourself not only to accuse the creator of art fraud, but then bluntly said you didn't believe them when they assured that the assets were used with permission, and THEN, when they provided a link that showed where the assets can be fairly acquired, you ignored that in favour of continuing to imply art theft, along with a heavy helping of backhanded defamation of your own. And THEN, when multiple people had suggested that you let it go, and the fairly acquired resources had been shown, you opted to ignore all of that, stick to your own guns and dig up contact details for the original art owners to try to ask them directly about it (Incidentally, for all of the 'it took some time to find' comment you made... a contact point can be found on the core site that Marble linked, it took me all of thirty seconds to find).
When you are ready to show a grain of integrity and being someone worth an iota of respect; you owe Marble an apology. If you can't do that, then you remain little more than a child kicking sand in a sandpit.
I don't expect that you'll do so - I hope, but I don't expect it, or that you'll let this go either; a child in a sandpit is what you've been about this matter, and while I hope you prove me wrong, I expect, instead, you'll just argue back again.
Now, if you tried to do this before, as you said you did, then I might suggest that you watch this next thing I do closely; if you were being honest before, then it seems it's something you're not very good at, so you might improve by watching others. THIS is how you leave something alone and let it go.
