I started a game and I noticed a few days later someone took my idea.

However, if it is an exact duplicate of your writing, then perhaps it's not allowed. Please send me a link to both games via PM -- not here on the thread -- and I will look into it.  | | | 02-20-2010, 01:33 PM | #93 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Jan 2010 Posts: 1,078 | Re: Questions about the new section?

Originally Posted by lovepuppygirl8 someone got mad at me for opening a game just like hers and wanted me to shut it down is this allowed? Maybe, maybe not. It would depend on how similar the game is. If exact words were taken, that's copying (also known as plagiarism) and that is not allowed anywhere on the site. If you just used the same idea though, it's allowed -- no one "owns" a game idea. And in fact, that's specifically stated in the rules.
However, what's more important here is that disputes like this should be brought to staff if they can't be resolved between yourselves. No one will be in trouble, it's just better to get an "official" decision than it is to argue.
Let me know by PM if you want to discuss this more. Great question!  | | | 03-16-2010, 11:27 AM | #98 | is a lazy Webkinz :) Join Date: Sep 2008 Posts: 2,790 | Re: Questions about the new section? Hello again!
Someone MAY have asked this before, but my thread closed to inactivity for 14 days. May I open a new game thread, or do I need to re-open the old one?
Thanks!

I'm sorry, but I just found out that I can only have one thread at a time. I don't know how to close my threads. I want to keep my most recent game thread titled First and Last Movies. Please let me know how to do this.
