Item location - Edinburgh.

If I were brave and foolish I could beat this guy up for you all, as I live in Edinburgh too, but I'd be far too scared!

I don't know, the UK is such a banana republic. Roll Eyes

Anyway, I can't believe some of you are suggesting to add watermarks. If we add watermarks, then the terrorists have already won!

We could have an option to add a watermark appear indescretely, and have it the runner's choice whether to have it on there or not. Though that won't crooks like this from making a buck.

Don't forget that adding a watermark is more work for Nate...

We could all add an extra $5.00 with every tape we send :P.

PwNzRd!

This guy is practically losing money on this bid. Right now, it is at $15, and if you take $1 for each dvd cost (presumably), he makes a lousy $5 after hours of hard work. Weenie. Plus, no bids... yet.

Apparently nobody wanted to pay more for it. He's probably making money on the shipping, anyway. £1.99 seems a bit steep for UK postage.

Anyway, it's Buy It Now, so there's no bids to be made. Though from the first link, apparently that doesn't stop people making offers.

welcome to the machine

Someone bid on one of his offers, so someone with an ebay account contact the bidder and direct him here. >_<

Assuming that's possible with Ebay's architecture, of course.

Message that fvcker back and tell him that he's probably ripping off Nate's DVDs.

User selling my intellectual property. Go to www.speeddemosarchive.com to see!

Reply by kaizan360: yes,but how can someone watch them on their DVD player? i convert & make covers

So, he openly admits he is selling someone else's IP. That should be enough for eBay to do something right now.

I replied. Sadly I can't report my auction as Fraud for 10 days...so my negative feedback he left for me will can't be removed until then.

Oh well.

Edit: HA! He requested me contact information. Here is his, in case this psycho tries to bomb me or something:

The good news is the address he got for me is not my address, although he can get my current address from getting my shipping info.

But didn't one of you say you live in Edinburg? Want to go punch this guy for us?

ok, 1 question why have you never sold them before?
I understand your point, but there is no copyright on them, and not all of them are
from the speed demos archieve, some are my own.
I'm also charging for the service of downloading these, & converting them, and
creating covers with my ink, & walking to the post office, and buying the blank
disks. You obviously can't do those, as you never have alrea
none of which you actually have anything to do with. If i was going to rip you off i
would burn them as .avi's, the fact is people want to watch them on their TV DVD
player

I think your just a little pissed that while you spend your time playing games, some
people are interested in making money, and providing a service that no-one else is
offering,

Do you think you have a legal leg to stand on?
i'll just play the games myself, and sell again, then what would you do?
i know, you'll be still playing computer games at your moms house, heheheh
come on eh, get busy & do some more speed runs

What I sent back to him:

- We do, you idiot! www.metroid2002.com/dvd - LOOK THERE!

I understand your point, but there is no copyright on them, and not all of them are from the speed demos archieve, some are my own.

- Under ICAAN's Web policies, PUBLISHING anything on the internet constitutes INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT PROTECTION (unless your country is in a state of denying ICAAN's authority, but you're from England and they recognize ICAAN). The game is (C) Nintendo Company, Limited (Zelda), but the PERFORMANCE (ie the video) is (C) ME. SDA has already threatened the US Cable Channel G4TV for using our materials without our permission, and they were forced to take the run off. If we got a major cable company to take them down, we'll have no trouble getting you busted.

I'm also charging for the service of downloading these, & converting them, and creating covers with my ink, & walking to the post office, and buying the blank. disks.

- That still doesn't mean you can actually SELL the content. That would be like me walking into a damn movie theater, recording the movie, burning it to DVD, selling it and shipping it because people don't want to "go to the movie theather" or something. Just because you do not have the means to obtain (C) material does not give one the authority to distribute it on their own with permission.

You obviously can't do those, as you never have alrea none of which you actually have anything to do with. If i was going to rip you off i
would burn them as .avi's, the fact is people want to watch them on their TV DVD player

- WE. DO. THAT. ALREADY.

I think your just a little pissed that while you spend your time playing games, some people are interested in making money, and providing a service that no-one else is offering,

- People like you should be shot and hung. Making profit off my work, which is solely for the purpose of FREE DISTRIBUTION (The DVDs we sell we only charge for the cost of the BLANK DVD + Shipping - we do not charge a content fee) ONLINE. I want people to see how to beat the games quickly, to be reminded of how cool Zelda is, and to better the Zelda Community. You are a traitor to not only the Zelda community, but to the speed run community in general.

Do you think you have a legal leg to stand on?

- Yes. As I said before, I got G4TV to remove my speed runs from their broadcasts.

i'll just play the games myself, and sell again, then what would you do?

- I have no problem with that. Make the videos yourself, and then I wouldn't care so much. If you meant reproducing what is on the videos I and others made - good luck.

i know, you'll be still playing computer games at your moms house, heheheh
come on eh, get busy & do some more speed runs

- For the purpose of people like you and other morons who keep stealing our stuff without giving us ANY credit, I will be personally WATERMARKING all of my videos from now on so people will know if you try to pull crap like this. And if this continues, I and others will take other measures to stop the blantant whoring of our work. Seriously, we're doing this for the love of the game, and you try to make a profit. It is not like we're a company or athletes making millions here - we don't make profit off our stuff! If you do not get that, then you were raised pretty poorly.
