don't delete this again mods, it's a fair post that doesn't break any rules.

I don't blame them lol.
I mean this isn't the first blatant rip-off they've done i.e. doges |

It still isn't an exact copy and has different names so it's safe.
They've copied HALO and TF2 as well, and even though Kirito's Elucidator and Dark Repulsor are copyrighted, you can't copyright all swords similar to it in general especially since there's subtle differences in the hilt and blade of both as well as different colors. |

even aside from legal terms,
ROBLOX continues to rip off other companies artwork. but i understand... ROBLOX is going downhill fast.

Well ROBLOX is a game that wants to have as much content from as many things as possible, because there's plenty of tributes or nudges towards other media in ROBLOX.
Yeah ripping off other artwork and design is wrong, but ROBLOX is a game that is about making anything. You didn't mentiom all the other games like Minecraft that do the same thing, and you didn't even mention other "rip-offs" like the blatant DBZ reference "R-orb" gear.
Plus Japan has different copyright laws than the US. |

minecraft is a game solely based on player creation, ROBLOX doesnt allow this when it comes to cosmetics (other than scripted costumes)

@Reset
So is ROBLOX. You can do whatever you want with their items and meshes when you create in ROBLOX Studio. What's your point? The reason ROBLOX has to add these meshes themselves is because of how their economy works. There isn't much of a difference as far as I'm concerned. |

the player created items in ROBLOX (other than clothing) are barely ever put on store due to roblox noticing them, even so most've them are cruddy re-textures.
in minecraft, literally almost everything is player made other than minecraft its self.
and you're drifting off into making it seem as if im telling ROBLOX to upload anything at all, i'm not. i know ROBLOX needs to sell things to make money unlike minecraft which you have to pay to create an account. still, ROBLOX can continue making money without stealing others ideas.
my original starting point was that ROBLOX should stop ripping off other companies artwork, and it remains to be my point.

Hats that look like they're based off of something are like Easter eggs, it's no big deal. It's like a reference. They're also not breaking any rules by doing so.
