    the problem is that the creators invested time in it. When we just delete it, we would be ... u know what i mean i guess.
    useless stuff that just show not acceptable stuff and do nothing -> the creator didnt invest alot of time, will be deleted.

    Exactly, the best you can do is vote it down, I don't want to be deleting work regarding the content just yet.

    thanks to you (or someone) for deleting the uploads that ml99 stole from me. I just noticed however that someone named "codygames" has stolen my upload "Admiral's Test Chamber".

    my proof is that my username is in the title of the upload (all my uploads have my username in).

    you'd think when they steal uploads they'd change the name...

    It seems that floridarolf's Nitro Jet was removed. I don't know if he removed it himself or if it was moderated, but there are still copies of it laying around that were uploaded by others, so...

    It might be easier just to disable stamps whenever someone is viewing someone else's work. There's already a check to keep a person from voting against or for their own.

    It would make logging out tricky though. There'd have to be a query or warning or something saying that the contents of the screen would be removed shortly after.

    ...It wouldn't stop people from using screenshots, but if they're that convinced then I'm not sure you could call it "Stealing." +_+

    it takes me 3 clicks and an average of 5 key-presses to find and delete some stolen stuff if it got reported.
    I dont think something like this is needed.

    alright thanks a lot mate. Also deleting all his stuff might not be a bad idea since i'm pretty sure he steals it all anywas :P

    i find it funny when you see two uploads called "Admiral's Fusion Reactor" and one is made by "Admiral-165" and the other is made ny "ml99"... hmm i wonder which author made it and which one stole it? lol

    Why exactly should 'stealing' be forbidden?
    Working on optimization together will deliver much better results. Or is anyone earning money with this??
