can you believe this?

[verz36]

wow zox is really crazy, maybe he is bipolar or something.. he keeps talking about how he is better than me and others and blah blah blah... read the following....

(My responce to verz and IMT, because people on MFG dont let me say the truth... here it is.

verz... you are just jealous because I released Spider-Woman wich puts your entire team in shadow and she is best very alike capcom MVC character,
that's why you come on my MFG Punisher thread and posting crap. People here don't see that.
And that on IMT about my version Punisher its because my Punisher is curently better looking than theyr Punisher.... jelaucy
PrimeOp gived me permission for skull when i worked together with him on Double Dragon game sprites.
And Z999 wtf is wrong with him, his Invisible woman and other have my DD Linda's face and body and he never asked me for permission and i never complained about it. I don't mind if he uses it.)

[Uche_of_IMT]

You are right. I don't believe this. This does not sound like the Zox that I know and understand.

[dev.]

It's clear to me that the man is not capable to understand a few certain things.
Just let it go and be the wise one, verz. You're wasting your time.

[Z999]

And Z999 wtf is wrong with him, his Invisible woman and other have my DD Linda's face and body and he never asked me for permission and i never complained about it. I don't mind if he uses it.)

? The invisible woman sprite was edited from Arkady sprite/character  a long time ago to show him how he could improve the concept, it was posted directly in the invisible woman release thread, was credited quite clearly, and arkady could have asked me to remove it anytime i have no problem with that. I even posted a before/after in the thread so that people know exactly what i did :

left is arkady sprite, right is my revision :

The credits for borrowed parts :

Archangel (Base : sprite by SoS) - Elixir (Base : sprite by Coelho29) - Polaris first sprite (Base : sprite by Esn23) - M & Iceman with gun(Base : Mystique sprite by Zvitor)
Marvel Girl second sprite (Base : sprite by Bdcirk) - Rockslide (Base : sprite by Coelho29) - X23 (Base : sprite by Cravb)
Invisible woman (Base : Sprite by Ahrimanes, Zox & Arkady) - Quasar (symbol by bdc) - Linda Danvers portrait (Base : Sprite by Jasontodd)
Nightwing (Base : Sprite by Jmaxx) - Linda Danvers portrait (Base : Sprite by Jasontodd) - Mimic (Wings by Jr6)
Yellow Jacket (Base : sprite by jasontodd)

It's not really like it was stealthy or anything but i'll remove it anyway.
Quite curious on the "and other" part since i'm 100% positive i never used anything from this sprite again. So hum, uh...!?

Anyway not familiar with the guy but that's some interesting reaction.

yeah I remember that WAYYYYYY back, I get the gist of what he is saying,
is that people are very adamant about is or isn't correct to edit, yes you shouldn't edit an NON open source character to further your own , without permission, but I think he is pointing out that even z999 has edited his work or my work (whatever in this example)
I understand the point made whether it was for one sprite, or a whole animation, it is the same thing, no matter the intention

but as I knew z999 was intent on showing a possible improvement, on my incarnation of sue, this was deemed ok, also I would never publically berate anyone for stealing my work, (I would moreso do it at a pm level/with admin inclusion if necessary) and it would have to be substantial amount of the work to get me riled up enough to do that, so it really depends on the intention/amount/demeanour of the work or creator affected, lots of variables there
I find one sprite to one animation really shouldn't cut it, not enough to merit this amount of venting/slander to incite this kind of public thread

but again its all variable, and intentions (no matter who s they are) are often for a good purpose, some have a stronger stance on it than I do
I would have to say this isn't by any means going to solve anything, other than casting stones at whoever
and awareness is good and all, but it doesn't solve the problem of the lack of respect in the internet community, in mugen or otherwise

people lie, people hate, people steal, people goss about the situation, these are all negative things, and we are contributing to it, no matter which view you take on it

verz I suggest to put this behind you, as you done so many other occasions, and try to work on the positive, than live on in the negative
zox most probably should apologize, even if its not public, (but going of this thread, most likely it will become so regardless)
everyone else should talk about giant alligators on golf courses
I'm going to continue my wips, before I fall asleep...... (if only I could work on mugen at work, then I wouldn't waste my sleep time, mugening)
