TCS Maps / {DEAD}scott
May 20, 2005, 02:48:00 AM
Hi again, thank you for your quick attention to this matter. I think your beef is with the Staff at levels4you. They are the ones who had MY map listed under YOUR name. I did google dead man walking clan, yours is the only active clan under that search. What was I to think? I see some of you also create levels here, ask yourself what you would do if you found one of your levels was credited to a member of my clan.

Now at levels4you site a Staff member named Gandalf has admitted to posting my level there and assuming it was yours some how and giving you credit for it. The apology your seeking should come from him/her.

Im not versed in English laws, but in America we take matters like this very seriously. I have been assured by our corporate legal counsel that the one and only party liable here is the holders of the levels4you domain name. If you wish to pursue this matter further please email me at scott@deadclan.com and I can refer you to my legal counsel.

With that out of the way let me state that I am regretfull that this situation arose. I can see that neither you or your clan had claimed to have authored the level in question. This seems like a situation that could have been avoided by using some common sence on the part of the staff at levels4you.

I do thank you for your time and attention given to this very serious matter.
Scott

[edit] I posted this before I read the thread below titled "Responce to shame on you". I now wish to add some things to this post.
 In hindsight I should have contacted a DMW member privately here BEFORE I posted. I regret that I did not. You have not responded with the general name calling or flaming that I expected to see in responce to my original thread. Instead you were mature and productive.  

We've been a h-l gaming clan for 5 years now, and my experiance with other clans/communitys I find that I'm generally dealing with far less mature people than you guys seem to be.

I am truly sorry for assuming that you, DMW clan had claimed my level DEADCLAN as your own. I can see now that you made no such claim. I was wrong. I also apologize for any bad feelings that I mave have caused. I acted to harsh. I should have waited for a responce from levels4you before I posted here or on our DEADCLAN site. That is also something I regret. This site and our DEADCLAN forum are the only places I've posted about this matter.

In our clan Honor and fairness in play are the only qualifications needed to be a member. We may not be the best players but we always try to do the honorable and right thing. I think I see the same quality in your clan.

Once again I am truly sorry for any offence I may have caused. I regret my original post. And thank you for the way in which you handled this matter.

P.S. Its not the location, its our host that causes the slow site. After 4 years with one host we switched to another cheaper host. Proves you get what you pay for. Whos your host? This site is very fast.

TCS Maps / SHAME ON YOU dead man walking clan
May 19, 2005, 05:11:25 AM
This map you claim to have made is MINE. I have the original .vmf, .bsp and compile logs. You guys didnt even change anything to make it look different. I made this map for our hl2mp server, 67.19.81.74:27015 DEADCLAN'S Graveyard about 6 months ago. Its been running on that server ever since. Heres a link to the map and your claim:

http://www.levels4you.com/search.l4y?secti...thor=DMW%20Clan

You call it dm_deadclan buts its real name is simply deadclan. I have informed the Admin of levels4you site.

Ive searched for dead man walking site and this is the only one I can find. If this is not your claim to my map then I apologize and will continue to look for the people who claim my map as theirs. If this is you claiming my map as yours who do I sue?

Please contact levels4you and REMOVE your claim as the authors of my level. I have the original .vmf.

Thank you Scott for editing and tempering your original, incorrect and slanderous claim. I trust that you will also have reported the error of your post to the above website to whom you repeated such claims. Under English law you need to do this as quickly as is reasonably possible to correct the wrong and avoid any legal liability. We value our good name and if damaged by your statement then we will consider action. In future, may I suggest that you speak to the Admins concerned privately to confirm your conerns before opening your mouth wide only to insert your foot?
