Can't ROBLOX sue them for basically copying their entire website? Or no?

BloxCity is becoming more and more popular.

Besides, what is copied? Their layouts and features are more or less alike, but they aren't exactly the same, therefore there are no copyright problems.

Why would they be worried? It's not on steam, the Game Engine is obviously buggy [I guess they copied Roblox on that too though lol], their logo looks like Google dumped on it.

It can easily be hit by copyright, but on the other hand, ROBLOX could be hit by one. Copyright is very weird today.

you can't sue someone for kind of copying their website, like if someone make a block game roblox can't sue them, they can only sue them if they take images/code. etc from roblox

there was a case where the Original game got copyright striked by it's copied game, because the copied game was more fun to play. This can be the case as well.

It would be a bad idea to even copyright strike Bloxcity, unless they have clear evidence on stealing.

"Bean's Shades" aren't the same as "Clockwork Shades" and they are a different texture.

Although a lot of their assets and products look like a lot of ROBLOX hats, they aren't breaking any rules, even if they are taking the overall idea.

Eg. Sandbox games, can one game sue another game for being a sandbox game? No, they can't.

So ROBLOX can't sue Bloxcity for being like an online developing game.

It's possible, BloxCity infringes on several ROBLOX patents, they're just to tiny to waste ROBLOX's time on.


Did you know ROBLOX is now available on those fancy touchscreen Coca-Cola machine? (+2,076 posts)

shmt copyright doesnt work that way you need absolute evidence it's a copy, such as the exact mesh or exact texture. there are millions of shades irl that look like clockworks shades. cws is not an original idea to begin with

@Luminak

Got this from the copyright laws.
"Copyright, a form of intellectual property law, protects original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, such as poetry, novels, movies, songs, computer software, and architecture. Copyright does not protect facts, ideas, systems, or methods of operation, although it may protect the way these things are expressed. See Circular 1, Copyright Basics, section "What Works Are Protected."


"Protects original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, such as poetry, novels, movies, songs, computer software, and architecture.

In this case, yes their website can be taken down.
