Thread: Civony is stealing?

  1. #1

    Default Civony is stealing?

    All the buildings from the world map of Civony have been taken from Age Of Empires II. Nice try stealing graphics from a game years old. Thought no one would notice? Too bad.

    Anyway, it is illegal. Age of Empires is copyrighted, and Civony is stealing (aspects of) the product for profit.

    It is not illegal to use the graphics. I posted on the old thread but my post vanished. Anyone can use the graphics, HOWEVER they cannot profit off them.... not even via a paypal donation button.

    ummm, sorry but they can't...either link gets them redirected to a page that says: Invalid Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

    although if i remember correctly a copyright only lasts so many years, after that anyone can use portions of it without having to pay for it (although somehow disney gets around that, which is really messed up considering more than half of what they use wasn't originals but just reproductions of very old stories)
