:0 they stole your design but didn't give you credit! Shame! Actually... Maybe they kept it a secret and your getting yours soon!:)

[CrimsonTider]

Have you not been given recognition? What about the other twk "elite" weapons.. are they similar to cintest entry submissions?

Not cool....

Not at all.

I made a post in the PL 2.0.0 patch notes thread where the original picture was posted for the new weapons, but it was either overlooked or ignored.

Nothing about this is acceptable. Never a reason to NOT give credit where credit is due.

[McBain]

Just to play devil's advocate here, I don't think it's too much of a reach that two people could come up with the idea of a "swordfish sword" independently. I highly doubt they stole your idea, but with that said, you should get some sort of credit since they're so close and your idea predates the new weapon, even if it's a coincidence.

[Lavalamp]

Yeah I don't see why sts would do this. They are good with giving credit maybe they just haven't got to it or maybe they accidently skipped over. Since u got no recognition I'd like to say congrats :) ur awesome design was implemented :D

[razerfingers]

Um, email support? But you never copywrited and made it public for them.. therefore its free to use imo. But still not good they didnt credit you

They should have at least given you like 20 mil or something.

[Jugernugetx]

oh a sword fish. we would have never guessed theyd use a fish for sword.... look on those rack things in humania. there is that same blue fish without the blade.

Considering the contest was held WAY before Humania came out and these were not introduced for another coupke of weeks after Humania came out, I have a hard time seeing coincedence. I'm not hating on ya, just stating I don't see how they can justify that argument.

I understood that and did read it the first time.

If they're gonna post that and then give recognition to people who they designed items after (namely winners of that particular contest and every contest prior and upcoming) then why not do it for all.

I'm not upset about them not giving recognition, I'm upset about them making it seem like they came up with the idea all by themselves.

oh a sword fish. we would have never guessed theyd use a fish for sword.... look on those rack things in humania. there is that same blue fish without the blade.


Your point is irrelevant.

[Pimpslide]

Oh right, but then again, the sword Necro designed is the exact same spitting image as the sword in the picture.
Right down to the curve of the face where it meets the hilt.

[LwMark]

Maybe they do have a surprise for you

[xcainnblecterx]

Shoulda slapped a TM on your pic. You deserve the credit and your getting it here so grats nice wep

[KingFu]

Not the first time. The Hook Staff, Scarab Bow, and Scarab Blade were all [uncomfirmed] entries in the AO2 design contest. By submitting your design, you gave them all the copyrights (IIRC from reading the rules and regulations).

Edit:

I also have the agree with Juger. They have them in town and just simply turned them into a weapon, they didn't necessarily use your design. I entered a crappy tiki head staff and they made one as well, regardless of mine looking different from there's, they still used the idea. I'd say the design team doesn't remember any of our entries, I'd even be surprised of they've seen any others besides the winning ones.

its very relevant. they started designing humania before the contest. If they would have stolen your idea, they would have said so. And yes, lucky has it as well as a 1h sword. So....?

[Elyseon]

dude just be proud, your item got made to be one of the first ever released 'elite' items, it was so awesome it couldnt win cuz it would be too valuable to give away for free

[NECROREAPER]

They asked for the elite Humania weapons to be designed, which this item is, and which I made a design for.

Coincidence?

[Rauekat]

Give the kudos to necro!

im sorry again, but next time read the fine print its all there.read whats in red... so this is probably a coincidence... meaning no recognition... there is no proof of who thought of the idea first.

[Jugernugetx]

Agreed a

[The Flash]

After seeing the elite wep more I dont see that much thats similar except there fish swords. I think you are overlooking it necro. You also put STS on blast. I dont see what kind of respond your are expecting after this. Which is why they dont respond as it will be a weird lol.

"Necro we didnt copy your idea sorry you think we did" or "necro we did copy your idea but chose not to give you credit". Either would go bad. Im sure they would have said so if they would have used your idea. There isnt a reason not to. They have nothing to lose by doing so. As even if they did they have full rights over your idea and dont have to give anything in return. None the less cool wep design.
