    My fellow islander Stickninja24 made his own book called the Color Code Guide, and put it in our shop at topshop. Now I am finding people selling these same books... it really makes me mad. I was wondering if anything could me done about this.

    This is at our warp (/warp topshop) and as you can see his own chestshop is there for his book.

    This is at /warp tribal. He has the same exact book...... this makes me really angry.



    Can anything be done?

    He could easily make the book himself, Doesn't mean he stole it from you?

    Why does it matter? Also I think you can make books which are the same.

    I've seen the book and it was pretty much copied straight from the wiki.

    Probably not. He seems angry about the fact that other players are making profit off of his co-op's book, unless if they bought it from their shop, they're ok I guess.

    In the end, the creator cannot guarantee the books wont be copied and for what its worth, the shop has credited the author. This is a classic trade scenario: you sell the books, someone has bought them, then sold them for profit. And duplication? well when one doesnt have time to hand make each book, just use the method to copy books. Thats the thing about selling things, once its out of your shop, you have very little control over what happens to it after its gone.

    There is nothing we can do about this, if you wanted to keep it exclusive you shouldn't have sold it.
    Locking and archiving.
