leeds for ever Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 It's not necessarily a scam, they're just selling off other people's hard work. They will just mail you the exact same changes.txt that Mightyowl has spent so long making and the Preference file from FMH Info that myself and jamesWHUFC.

Plymouthdylan Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 It shouldn't be alowed, to sell it. It;s like you should pay people to hack a psp or xbox. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComeontheArsenal Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 It's a disgrace! People will do anything for a bit more money! We all know who really made the update it's a bit cheeky really. I guess theres not a lot you can do. Apart from maybe send them a message or something! An angry one! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 try contacting ebay and let them know that they are selling things that are available for free here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeds for ever Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 It doesn't affect ebay though as they get a percentage of the sale. A big nasty letter from SI should be enough to make them run home with their tail between their legs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mightyowl28 Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 UPDATE: so anyway, I bought the 'update' of the abay seller, I made him a 'best offer' of 49p and he accepted. I just received it via email and it is most deifintly part my work. Who else would know to change the name of the Malta manager (im 1/4 maltese)! Not sure what to do, If I leave neg feedback, he'll just give me the same back! think I'll send him a polite notice... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mightyowl28 Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 I just sent the following message: Good Evening. I would like to make a severe complaint regarding this item. The reason I bought it was because I suspected you may be selling my work. I am a member of the official FMH forum and regularly create database updates for my personal use and then upload them for other members to use. Having reviewed the 'changes.txt' you sent to my email I am 100% sure you have used my work. I now request my money back for the item, the item removing from ebay, and 51% of all monies you have previously earnt from selling this item. Failing the above I will not hesitate to take this matter further. I look forward to your response. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjefford Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 sorry to say, but i doubt you have a leg to stand on with this, as you don't actually own any of the rights to anything do you? it's a shame though, as your work on it is has been laborious and very very good!

Patje.lol Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 There is a thread about this in the general part aswell, but then about the PC-version. Miles already stated that it's illegal, due to copyright by SI Games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrspiderpig Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 if you give something away free to peple ofcourse peple are goona use it and its going to get further afield than you wanted it too , who ever is selling it could change one line of it and claim its there update now , theres no copyright laws on a changes.txt file as anyone can make one.as for you wanting 51percent of the profit . AS IF ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeds for ever Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Good luck but I also think your chances of getting any of this are very slim. I don't suppose you're a lawyer are you? Could help you out a bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
