Even more legalities on PokeOnline/Zero

I know you've had enough of this. We all have, but last night I called my cousin. I'm frankly pissed off about Pol/Pz and all of their "legalities." They stated that Myke contacted Nintendo of America about legalities. This is not true, in fact Naihitsu said that there would be a huge problem. He said that these are all enough to get it shut down:

1. Using the name Pokemon (which is copyrighted) on a game THEN copyrighting the name themselves.

2. Stealing graphics from another game (illegal) THEN saying they are theirs. Myke said he does not claim them, yet everyone who plays that game says they DO own them. X.x Sounds like Myke is lying to us.

3. Use of graphics from 2 copyrighted companies. They are using the game boy ROM then practially ripping it from the game and making it online-playable.

4. Even if he did contact NoA, Nintendo of America only partially owns those graphics. Gamefreak and Nintendo LTD. actually own them and NoA has permission to use them (for translated games)

Those are just some of the reasons that he mentioned. (I had to get off the phone unless I wanted a REALLY high phone bill X_X)
He said he might email me some more later, but he also said not to bet on it considering he's at work a lot. If I ever get the email I will post it on here as well at PokeZero/PoL(If they ever accept my application -_- I've waited for a week now) I also notified the picture named they had stolen (pics1.png) to Naihitsu and he said if he ever emailed me, to reply and attach ours AND PoL/PZ's.
When I have more information, I'll post it here.

Ne0Night

I think it's good that they stole our old tileset like that. Now if anyone's gonna get sued by Nintendo, it's them first, buying us enough time to cover ourselves!
They suck and all that, but they server as insulation, and that's gewd.

U shouldnt even worry about this illegal stuff.

It is Between Stefan, Nintendo , and PokeZero.

I see nothing about NeoNight in this crisis.


PokeZero is making a new tile set, or did u forget to say that?


U could say some positives also.

Like they are making a new tile set.




Anyway. It is just a programmer, who likes pokemon and wants to make a cool pokemon game that people will wanna play.
But there is almost no way to make a Game as good as Graal in visual basic with out taking many years to do it.

I someday wanna make a game people wanna play also.



I cant say what he did was good, but I also cant say anything against him.
If u have problems with them then post on thier message board*If they have one* But now this one.

This one is meant for topics with better meaning

I somwhat agree with you, but why not the Creator/Programmer hook up with the Original creaters of teh Pokemon sequal(s) and Program an online game and charge minimum for that?

But instead -- The Creator of Pokezero online or whatever had to go and use a Graal tileset, a Copyrighted name , and all of that without permission. I doubt Stefan would have let them use the tileset anyway, even if whoever created it asked.
It is all about the cash money. :o

Umm....they arn't making a new tile set they are editing it
Stealing graphics and using it as their own without permission is illegal anyway you put it

That game is completely like the Gameboy Pokemon (no orginality)

Who wants to play a shitty remake of a already released game? Oh yes it online counter-part....Where the hell is the online.

If you want to release something (games or otherwise) make sure it looks desent and doesn't have bugs and crap up the arse!

Merlin, you can have your account. It sucks anyway, all I have done for you. I've helped you with your stupid playerworld, I've gave you FTP after you sat and begged forever for it. Maybe you should grow up? You act like a ten year old, you're a *****.

This also goes to Tyne, who thinks "Providence" is the best because he can script in a language which is really ***, called GScript...

Grow up, get a life.
