Topic kick is when you post in a topic more than a week old I think. Maybe it is 2.
And about dealing with resource thefts, Alex is going to deal with that.

Thanks for clearing that up. Seriously though...If I see another resource taken from a site without permission, or another "I don't know who the author is even though his name's right there," I'm gonna vomit.
DF, you should take down all the Wild Pudding monsters immediately. The artist has a strict "no copying" policy.

The only one that can remove things from complete resources is Alex.
Um, decribe "No copying" policy.

Attention!
Pharoah_Chars has stolen a large number of characters from a Brazilian RPG maker site.
They still have the signature of the original artist in them, so they should be easy to find.
Jmckt stole a characterset from one of your affiliates, Gaming Ground Zero. It's a character set of the Grim Reaper.
Teardrops hasn't posted any original resources or ripped his own things whatsoever. They're not his, so get rid of them. All of them.

Okay, seriously people, Charas nor anyone else can be prosecuted for the use of any resources made for RM2K. The agreement on Wild Pudding and other sites like it is just that, and agreement
not
a contract. Of course you should not claim ownership over resources that you had no part in making. Even if you can't credit the exact person who made it--if there was no signature or maybe you just forget where you got it--you should at least say what resources you made, edited, etc., and which you downloaded. However there is
no
legal obligation to do so, it is much more about common courtesy and giving credit where it is due.

Oops. Geez, I guess I didn't read close enough.
Though, in all fairness, Charas shouldn't be holding these resources because it's not very respectful to Wild Pudding, who's an excellent artist and obviously works very hard on the monster graphics.
Sorry about that...still, it's good that they're taken down. People who want them can easily find the website through Svatopluk's website and get the monsters theirselves.
By the way, here's what Svatopluk says about Japanese website policy.
-
"Outside, the RPG Maker scene mainly rotates around community site, all material that is found, ripped, or sometimes created, is uploaded to them. In Japan, every artist has his or her own site, and the use of the material is subject to some rules.
These rules are individual, but in general you can assume the following:
1. In general, the material is for the use in RPG Maker games only, though some artist allow the use on a webpage. In any case this restriction applies to material relating to the RTP, and in no case are you allowed to simply redistribute the material!
2. Usually, you are allowed to modify the material slightly to fit the needs of your game (anything else would probably impractical), but not to distribute the modified material.
3. If you use the material in a game, you are to mention it explicitly in an accompanying readme file or within the game itself, including the site's URL. This, I suppose, should go without saying.
4. When you download something, you are supposed to post a short comment on the BBS (every site has one) or email the artist. This is considered common courtesy in Japan.
5. You are supposed to link to the homepage only. And it is a good idea to actually do so, since Japanese sites often change their internal structure or their location. There will usually be a redirect from the former homepage.
6. Nearly every site has a 200x40 banner, which is like a business card. Sometimes you are allowed or even encouraged to link to it directly, sometimes not. It is not always easy to find out which rule applies, but if the banner's URL is displayed directly beneath it, you can probably safely assume that you can link to it directly. Usually, you will find it either on the link page or on an about page that nearly every site has. Of course, this is only a rule of thumb."
And maybe I should take a chill pill.

As long as people say where they got them from or at the very least not claim credit for themselves, I see no reason why people should take them down. It is rather hard to have to sort through all the monsters on Wild Pudding and they aren't exactly named in English so it is a bit useful (especially for newbs) if other people help.
Maybe that can be your job, going around and yelling at people who claim resources that aren't their own.

so if I use a nude template from charas project and draw my own clothes can I give both myself and charas project credit? I primarily just like to use the nude bases from here and then draw my own clothes on them in paint shop. I just want credit for what I did but I'm more than happy to say I got the nude templates here.

Please check the date of the last post before you post!
But, to answer your question: Yeah, you should give credit to Charas for the base.

I know this is another topic kick but I need to get this off my chest. Charas would be a lot more respectable if people posted their original resources, and not redistribute materials found elsewhere. If you post things here that aren't yours, it's not particularily nice to the original creator. I am incredibly sick of Charas people looting and pillaging every RPG maker site they can find, and posting the resources up here! Hell, I'd prefer to see a poor quality rip or original than something stolen by someone who's worked hard to make their own materials! It gets frustrating wading through pages and pages of blatantly stolen material, trying to find something original!
Oh, and Luckygerbils?
What would you do if someone else claimed your things to be their own, hmmm? Would it make you angry? I'd imagine it would.
Yes, I'm angry! Very, very angry!
I need a stiff drink.

This also shows the increativity of the members.
Maybe you could write an article about it. It's a good point you got here.
But keep in mind, I've seen some crap in there, like JPG files and such. So I don't think crap should be allowed.
Another thing, maybe it's good to allow people to post archived files. Sure we'll need some extra uploaders, but aren't there enough mods to make that possible? I mean, three or four sections per uploader.
But I'm going off topic. I don't like people stealing resources. Look at Kijuki's Mewtwo. Someone stole that resource. Well, the issue was resolved later, but the point is, just as Sarl said, you can't just claim a resource as yours.
