Original project by me: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/future-of-warfare-av-14-wasp-attack-vtol/

Stolen project: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/halo-helicopter-with-arrows/

Would a moderator or site administrator please explain as to why they think theft is ok. Note the submission date on the projects. My project says "11/19/11" and his says "11/22/11". I am utterly outraged at the fact that the mods refuse to remove the stolen project. All he did was change the material and add dispensers. I received no prior comment or message asking for permission, therefore none was given. I flagged it dozens of times, and still nothing.


EDIT* Thank you for removing it.

Why don't you just flag the creation, Maybe as stolen/unoriginal work?

I would guess, because it is different. Sure it is very similar to your creation, but the "nock off" is made of different material, and slightly different framework.

The material doesn't matter here. It's the design that he stole.
