Hey, just quit offering "your version" or imitations of other people's works.

Simple enough?

Acting like school boys? And just how would you know what school boys act like when you obviously never went to school?

I guess nobody owns music or movies or plays either, Right?
Everybody just do what you like!! Takashi miike says its all good.

The effects on the DVD and lecture notes are far beyond your abilities. (They require mastery of the mechanic's grip.) It would only break your heart.

There's a lot going on here Michael.

Your suggestion about using the flipper coin gaff is a good one and a guy named Troy Hooser has already published some good routines using that and the [ gaff to do some impressive three coin routines.

In the mean time, folks really are having trouble accepting that just because they can make something to their tastes does not mean it is okay to sell it. They are scared of the notion of "derivative works" and respecting the market value of other people's products. They seem to feel that if they can get away with taking without asking it makes them a good person when they sell. It does make them "good" if your idea of good is a pirate and you are so callous as to not care about those whose valuable work has been taken.

You're being awfully kind Jake, I myself would be edited out or severely reprimanded by the mods over my response to this lad! I'm just gonna leave that one alone.

Dan
quite simply I just keep replying because I'm trying to shake this Special User title under my name, I don't feel special, I would much rather be labled by the powers to be as the Café Clown.

On a lighter note, did I read somewhere here on the Café that Terrorists Raided Copperfield's warehouse? Smile

Steve "Rippoffcomic" Tippeconnic did do the routine any justice or the copy of the coins. I watched the dvd and nearly brought dinner back up. Next face in magic? Yeah, face that should be hiding, he maybe the next face, but he's sure never going to be the Next World Magic Champion.

I can't believe anyone could justify the sale of stolen goods in his store, it's what we been talking about, if someone steals an idea that's theft. If that idea is being sold in a store that's fencing stolen property mabey I'm just stupid but it seams awfal simple to me.

I wouldn't buy a DVD player out of the back of truck (chances are it's stolen) why would any self respecting person buy from those shops that are selling stolen property ?

It seems to me that if you can't keep a business open by ethical business practices you deserve to go out of business.

Just my opinion

Scott

and yes I have had ideas and things stolen from me in other business ventures.

I would hate to have anything that I put my time and sweat and in some cases money into copied and sold by someone who has no ethics or morals. It seems that some people are more interested in making a quick buck than respecting the work of others. I can't imagine how that would feel and I wouldn't want to find out.

I have allot of respect for the creators who have the talent to invent something new and wonderful. I wonder how many have just said "the hell with it" after having something riped-off and, as a consequence, Never released anything again. How much are the rest of us missing out on because of nonsense like this?

My favorite part is when the folks start up with:

But imitation is the sincerest form of flattery so you should be very happy.

or

Hey, what's the problem you are famous now

or

Now you can enjoy seeing all those folks so happy to be doing your trick.

or

So what, it's just a trick, get over it.
