Honestly im sick and tired of how roblox cant even offer basic protection. they may as well just remove copy protection since it can apparently be circumvented quite easily.

The number one game on roblox at the moment is my game.
You will even find Telemon himself favourited it (my version).
It has -never- been released in any form to -anyone- and yet someone has stolen it and made it his own.

Extremespeed500 will openly tell you he stole the places - you will even see decals of me in the place itself.

I don't see the point in continuing roblox unless they can promise me that my work will not be stolen by others, but is there anything i can do in the meantime while i try and contact roblox?

#1 now "You don't care" but you will, when your front page game is stolen and the person who took it even goes so far as to advirtise it as his own.

^tl;dr
None of us make first-page games.
We are humble and don't show off our scripting abilities unless we have a good game.
I have some friends who do, and I do not blame them; they are still humble yet made a good game and wanted to make it popular.

Honestly, who cares about this anymore.

SO many people have stolen games, claimed them as their own, and gotten loads of visits off of them that it is now just getting old.

Plus, the ROBLOX admins do not even CARE about this situation, so no matter how hard we complain, they won't listen so there is no point of complaining.

I'm not saying "lol don't get mad if ur place got stolen noob", I am saying that complaining is not going to get us anywhere since ROBLOX does not care.

@Booing buzz off. your obviously not mature enough to be on these kinds of threads. You are most likely jealous. You WISH you were the hacker most likely. Aerideyn, I think all R.S>A. and R.S.A. HRs are taking fast action in this event.

Hide server scripts in the server's camera and add checks for CreatorId and precompile it all.

Well yes, but that doesnt help someone who already has it does it.
It's a little sad when they expect players to defend themselves, when few even have the skills to do it.

It's unfortunate, yea. I think if they separated the IDE from the client there would be fewer exploits. For instance, if you open studio it'll open as normal and you'll be able to Text>Visit with the IDE as normal, but if you made a server and then went Test>Start Player or played a game, it would launch a different application with no IDE tools, plugins, etc. Of course, they'd have to have security to make sure one doesn't making the IDE app impersonate the client app.

Bah. I totally think the idiots who steal places and claim them as their own are morons, but I still wouldn't care if one of my places was stolen. I've uncopylocked most of them and the only reason I didn't uncopylock some of them is that the coding in them is so horrible that I don't really want to uncopylock them..

"did you work on a place for 2 years, 400 HOURS OF WORK? Obviously not, if you don't care."

What? Working on a place for 2 years? 400 hours of work on it?

Huh, ok... I don't understand how he can not be bored of working on that place after 400 hours, but..

"So try to care a little."

I can't just "try" to care. If I don't care, I don't care. I can't just magically make myself care about it.

I have no reason to care about it, anyways.

Because he is dedicated to making a game. I'm not going to flame you, but if you didn't care, why the h-e-double l did you even bother to post in the first place?

Now for my original post, that i was planning on posting:
___________________________________________________________________________
I sent this PM to BrightEyes, Reesemcblox, Telamon, and RobloTim. I will send it to more:

Can you ban and delete? If not, relay this message to someone who can ban and delete and stuff.

A user, ExtremeSpeed500, has been hacking/exploiting/idk the proper term, but stealing games somehow, with a hack probably, and claiming them as his own. a few of us in a group first noticed this when our launch site (It's the Roblox Space Administration), "Tests", by Aerideyn, which is also a public game that Telamon, erm, Shedletsky, faved, appeared under a different name on the front page with ExtremeSpeed500 as the creator. this was not some simple recreation, no. he had everything down to the glitches. After a whole day of massing a (idk what to call it), he took it down. He then proceeded to take it's predecessor, Ride a Rocket to the Space Station and Moon, and replace the first hacked game with that. We massed an attack (still dont know if that's the right word) again, and he took it down. less than 12 hours later, hacked "Tests" was back on the front page. It's not just "Tests" by Aerideyn he stole. He stole the ro-bowl bowling center from (i think it's geico480), and several other popular games. If you would, please IP ban him, delete his places, and delete his username. 1 jaredvaldez, even if he has incarnated himself 4+ times, is bad enough.
