Well, my idea was that when a place (that was uncopylocked or not) was taken, there would be, in the description of the place, 'Credit to ______'. This could not be deleted from the description.

Example:

If I took Shedletsky's Sword Fight on the Heights, my description would say,
'Credit to Shedletsky', followed by whatever I want in the description. Get me?

I make a decal of my name, and possible my 'company' on here, in all of my games. I often put around 5 and have them somewhat hidden. So, if they are ever copied I can make people believe it's still my game.

If you uncopylock your game it's your problem, upload your game with scripts or hidden decals so people who play know

You can't take places without exploiting. Roblox took care of that, by removing studio from the menu.

'roblox could never keep track of this...'

So you're saying that if ROBLOX can keep track of every single KO & WO in game, they can't keep track of this?

@North Keeping track of KO's and WO's is definately alot easier than keeping track of this.

North, wow, that is by far the stupidest thing ever. At least know how the game works before you say such blasphemy.

It is the computer that counts your KOs and WOs. How would the game know if you copied a single sword or something or the entire place?!

Oh, so how does ROBLOX's computer know if you downloaded it, and even used it after that?

I don't know, how the hell do they know that you killed this person so many times and died to them this many times?

Too complicated. If you make your place free models, or otherwise uncopylocked, you should not be surprised when someone takes it.

KOs and WOs are simple. The computer tracks the leaderboard stats, and relays the data to ROBLOX's data centers. KOs and WOs are just numbers, which makes them easy to keep track of. Places, however, are huge XML files that couldn't possibly be checked for plagiarism.

Before downloading, it sends the data to ROBLOX's data centers. It checks who made the game and ads it to the discription. Simple.

Not all games have leaderboards.

Or, like someone said you can make a immovable hint.
while true do
a =Instance.new("Hint", game.Workspace)
a.Text = "This game is made by ___________________."
wait(0.1)
end

@North, You are not very smart, are you?

It's all in scripting. For KOs and WOs, a digit is added each time you kill a humanoid.

*Sorry, thought it was something else.

Anyways, every time a kill is made (a humanoid is killed) it justrelays the info.

Not that hard.

So why can't you just do the same for downloading someone's place?
