It has recently come to the attention of myself and two of the moderators of TWHL that a certain member has proven himself to be a giant fraud. This particular member engaged in activities such as claiming other mapper's screenshots as his own to aid his request to join a modification team. Furthermore, once on the team, this member proceeded to steal prop models requested by the member for use in projects not in any way connected to the modification.

Once these claims reached myself and the moderators, we reacted with concern over the misuse of other mapper's hard work and property. We immediately thought of the possibilty that members of TWHL might've been affected by the actions of this individual, considering our slew of high-profile mappers. As such, we attempted to find out which screenshots were used. Our efforts, however, were to no avail as the leader of the mod had deleted the emails. After this, we came to the conclusion that TWHL had to be warned, for the good of the community: we do not wish to see your hard work being used to such a pathetic extent.

Although we were quite shocked to discover that screenshots had been used, we were mortified and appauled to discover the efforts of the modification team were also going to waste.

The modification team acted responsibly on this issue by removing the individual from the modification team. Since we do not know the source of the screenshots, we cannot find out who was personally affected, but we felt that TWHL should be warned: habboi is not to be trusted.

Now, as much as many may be thinking that this is Trapt stirring up crap again, I can assure you that this is not the case: we have inside informants who can confirm the validity of the post. I am one of the two moderators mentioned in the post and I was absolutely disgusted to hear of this abuse of trust and possible misuse of our hard work. Personally, I do not tolerate this kind of action.

We cannot name our informants for the sake of privacy, so please do not ask us. What you read in the post is all the information you will get for the time being. If we receive anymore relevent news, we shall deliever promptly. Please do not bother myself, Trapt or other moderators with requests or questions as we will simply ignore them.

Yeah, shocking even though I heard about it before

Ansith told me about this at the hldm server of twhl, I didn't actually believed it but sjeesh.... it's true!

I never really liked 'nubboi' for he sending me pm's with disgusting pictures (I do not wanna remember them) and once he pm-ed me of saying he would send me virusses like he did to madcow or something.

This may have been jokes, but I certainly do not found them funny.

I will officialy put habboi on my 'to hate, to flame, to kill' list next to Jimmi. :tired: Good job 'nubboi', you deserved it!

I don't think they'll let him win, even if he will enter... after this how can you trust him, he may steal a map and enter with it.
Posted 18 years ago2006-01-07 10:35:49 UTC Post #156641
Indeed.

Oh, and to people who thought I was 'stirring up crap,' well... you're all idiots. ;)

Those are some SERIOUS fucking accusations, you can't just make that shit up and get away with it.

I assure you that it is real, and I'm not fucking about.

His reputation as a mapper is permanently scrubbed. Let's hope he doesnt further his evil efforts and start a new spamming account!

Well i'm shocked to be honest...

You say i'm removed from a mod team when I only work for gang-life...Does that mean they banned me :o

Unfortunately no hmm so what does this mean...The only other mod was Nightfall and I was banned way before that after behaving like an idiot and giving in sloppy work. And even then i'm not banned on that site so where am I removed then?

Ok next is "steal prop models requested by the member for use in projects not in any way connected to the modification."

"I have never used a custom prop in my life, swear it to God himself...

Ok next on the agenda is: "other mapper's screenshots as his own to aid his request to join a modification team."

First off all my pics are my own, including city 13 beach, de_boshi, dm_habboicity and some other maps...

Next is "we do not wish to see your hard work being used to such a pathetic extent."

Well no offence but I never download peoples maps here except Hunters and even then he doesn't give away his VMFs...

The modification team acted responsibly on this issue by removing the individual from the modification team.

Erm what team :| Gang-Life is the only mod I work for and:

Still there ahem ;D

habboi is not to be trusted.

Of course you can't trust me...I'm a complete stranger on the internet as are all of you...How do I know your not cops watching me illegally download or my long lost parents etc...

Well thats my speech of innocence...Quite frankly I don't think Trapt is bullshitting but I do think he has the wrong name and I do remember a certain reply : I don't have a grudge against him but I don't like that arrogant fucker...Nice guy eh and if i'm not mistaken Ant is a friend on Trapt. Don't get me wrong just cause they are friends don't mean they are trying to get me kicked out...

I come here because of the great community...Never have I met such a friendly community, Snarkpit has more adult conversations which is why for instance Satchmo makes more threads there than here cause most of you act like children...Who can blame you, your 12-16....

oh and whats with this box...I typed some paragraphs and they somehow jumbled up :S

Ok well its your choice to ignore me...I know Hunter will believe me because we are great friends...Even Moppen can support me as we're great friends and he has seen all my maps from day one.

Oh and FresheD i'm sending that virus ;D

hmm interesting. Maybe they really got the wrong name? Trapt did they say that the one is really habboi? Or just mentioned that he's someone from twhl with some other details but not the name?

I dont know. I spoke the rabid on msn and they got proof.

This is pathetic,
habboi has been making maps for gang-life, he applyed with shots of his own map, he has been mapping with just hl's props, and he has never been kicked of the team
i cant believe anyone types this up to make him look like a fool,
i dont understand you guys, grow up, or shut up
Posted 18 years ago2006-01-07 11:18:13 UTC Post #156648
let the proof and the admins sort it out

Drama.
Posted 18 years ago2006-01-07 12:27:27 UTC Post #156653
I think you should all be ashamed of yourselves. None of you have actually seen the evidence, yet you start to flame habboi as soon as you get the chance.

If this is true then habboi will get what he deserves, if there's been some kind of misunderstanding (not calling trapt a liar) then you've only managed to make complete idiots of yourselves. Please, until this is settled; Stop the fucking flaming

:) You think this drama is going to stop me accomplishing my dream? To work as a game designer ;)

Anyway
Check the ip addresses of those two non-avatar recently registered accounts!
Just-me would be the guy on that pic I posted aka my mod leader who supposedly kicked me out according to the thread maker...

Second guy 'Moppen' is a deep friend who has followed me since the day I started and has watched me make my maps...

Basically they are just friends backing me up...Not that I care much, what kind of game designer would I be if I stole maps and released say a Quake 5 with similar maps to Kasperg's or Rabids...

Hmmmmm, this is a hard case. If what Trapt is saying is true then I am utterly disgusted. However I don't think I can comment until we get some evidence.

Lets have a trial!

Jury:
SariBous,
Kasperg,
Strider,
The_Hunter,
Me!

Judge:
Seventh

If you do not want to be in then come take your case up with our complaints department (points in the direction of the boxing ring :D )

Heheh, I love organizing stuff.
