    My Song Has Been Stolen on FFR

    Hey, this is Stealing Vision. I have a song I made for Stepmania's Stepmix 4 contest that I uploaded here and also on Newgrounds.com here.

    I have found out that someone is using my song in a simfile on FFR without giving me any credit and even changing the name here and here.

    I would like these songs to be removed please. I am perfectly fine with my song being on a popular simfile database like this, but I would like proper credit on my part since I work so hard to get my songs released. Please let me know who I should contact to approve of this, thanks.

    -Kyle

    This isnt on the real FFR game. It's the simfile database, where you don't need permission to use songs.

      Well, I'm not talking about permission, I'm talking about credibility. There's videos spreading on youtube and they all think it's called birthstone mix. -_- It doesn't feel good to know people think your song is named something else. Who's the guy who even decided to change the name???

        Internet detective on scene.

        Also, you asked who you should contact, I would try to get hold of Tasselfoot on AIM and let him know.

            Ok, thanks for everyone's help. I don't want to be a party pooper, actually I'm honored to have my song so popular amongst the FFR community. I just don't want to let my copyrights to get infringed.

                    Actually, officially, they're not supposed to be any bigger than mine. Mine is literally one image with the maximum size that the rules say is allowed.

                    But the staff fails to enforce this, particularly in cases of signatures with multiple images or quotes.

                      Wow this is pretty ****. I can imagine how I'd feel if I made a song, and then it got spread under a different name and someone else took the credit for it... =.= Even if it's not in the real game, the fact that someone from the website went ahead and did this is... disgusting.
