The Text Generator on habbox I just realised is illegal.

If the makers of the Habbotools.de wanted you to remove the copyright they would have made it easy to remove.

It is their generator, and you put no claim or copyright or credit to them, instead using sneaky script to cover it up.

You don't need permission to use it... Anyone can use it provided the copyright/credit to the them is on it "/

Think about it, even you have a pirate dvd and say its not yours and take no credit for it you are still in breach of the copyright

I know, I never said it is or wasn't theres. HabboTools let you use it as long as you have the copyright/disclaimer. You can use it with or without permission provided you put the disclaimer somewhere. I don't see why 8Freak8 asked for it when he could of just used it with a disclaimer... What difference does it make? It's obvious Habbox didn't make it so why take away a disclaimer which makes it look like they want people to think they did.

8Freak8 did some coding for them in exchange for the text generator according to that post.

For all we know 8freak8 may have been the one who coded it in the first place for them.

They provided the code to use there script anyway, for free. Its a pretty basic generator so if habbox were really going to be stealing one im sure there are better ones they could have choosen. o.0

Ah that makes sense... Although 8F8 would of been ripped off if he was given it for free, when it is free and all that's changed is the lack of disclaimer :P

To put an end to the speculation, I believe we let them use our Rare Values / Rare Images with credit to us if they let us use their Text Generator with credit to them. I know for a fact that there was consent from Habbotools.de

Kfnx.

And yes we probably could have used it without giving them something back, but we felt that we should give them something in return :P

I think what they are trying to say is that nowhere on the text generator does it , as far as I can see, have
© habbotools.de so while it isn't ripped it looks like it is. :P

I am fairly sure that was a part of it. AFAIK nobody has edited the page...I can't see anyone deliberately removing it if it was part of the agreement. It would be rather pointless.

I am sure they didn't it just doesn't seem visible so maybe an idea for the ©
symbol for Habbotools.de to be added to save any furthers threads. :)
