Full fledged plagerism.

He added a shot at the beginning and ripped a scene from teh end of X-2 he put at the very end but the video itself is the same.

Luckily I have a copy of Ari-chan's Pretty Fly for a Battousai. And the comparison is....well...gee, he even left the "Produced by Allissa Babineau' at the end.

So, Graffix_God's version is another copy.

His "eight videos" is now down to three. And I seriously doubt those remaining three are his either.

This one actually uses footage that editors have watermarked as theirs. Crazy.

The last one also uses watermarked footage, so that's all his videos deleted for being other people's work.

Some people....

This is indeed very sad, was he actually thinking that no one would notice?
i mean, lack of creativity, jealousy and ability to edit propperly isn't an excusse at all to steal other people's hard work.

I know that some of my videos (and ideas) have been inspired by other people's work, but non of them are a copy of their works, each one is original.

I think it's okay to be inspired and to use that inspiration, but theft and plagerism is definatly not the way.

Maybe it would be a good idea to search out more of these losers, they give a bad name to AMV creators

OK I've got to bump this thread and show you guys the emails he has sent us since we removed his videos:

Graffix_God in an email wrote:Hello, and I have a small problem on my hands. One night I go to bed seeing my videos listed on a-m-v.org. The next morning, I go to check up on them, and they're NOT THERE. Any problem? Or am I banned? I just want to know is all.

then I wrote:This is no accident. It was discovered that all of your videos were actually other people's videos thinly disguised as your own. This plagiarism is not allowed on the site and as a result your videos have been removed and your upload rights have been taken away from you.

Did you really think that you could convince people that well known and loved videos such as Spectacular Anime, Pretty Fly for a Battousai and Jammin With Edward were your own?

then he wrote:I admit that Spectacular Anime and Jammin' with Edward are not mine, but the Pretty Fly for a Battousai IS mine. I was teh one who created it. I clearly stated in my comment for the vid that the IDEA came from my friend, who was killed in an accident. That's why the "Produced by Allison" is at the end.

then I wrote:What utter bullshit! Pretty Fly for a Battousai was made by Ari-chan back in 2003:

Admittedly the video isn't hosted at the moment but I've seen the video and you stole it. How you can continue with these lies astonishes me.

You total loser.

and I'll say it once more for good measure... what a loser.
