Gojiria FX just accused me of plagiarizing them.

[Confuzzled]

Seriously? I could understand if the offending artwork was original but all of their artwork on pedals is swiped from somewhere else. Don't let it bug you. It's not as if you're doing a mass production run.

Considering the amount of copyright infringement on their part they should just shut their cock holsters and move the fuck on.

[D.o.S.]

I think what everyone is missing here is that behind the cheap stick on artwork of publicly sourced images lies Gojira FX's real originality: Tubescreamer, Rat, and Muff circuits.

Yeah, this dickhead should definitely worry about someone ripping him off.

Maybe it would be too "meta". But why not create a pedal with this image on it and
send it to Gojira and Matt Groening too? Or maybe create an image of Godzilla
getting punched out by Mr. Sparkle?

Apparently Gojiria has no sense of Personal Irony

Classic criminal mentality--always accuse others loudly of exactly what you perpetrate yourself--throws off the scent of the hounds. Except...internet.

Dude is telling me now that he didn't say I stole art from him. So what about the pictures I posted? What would that indicate to you? Hmmmmmmmmm look familiar???

Looks like Gojira took down the thread as well. The guy should join the forum and have a rational discussion.

Yaz--but let's use those words--fed through a Miku Stomp etched by Acid Splash with images of Gojira gojiraing Gojira while Bender ralphs all over rabbits in Hell.

I support this idea

[Jwar]

So I agreed to be peaceful with them despite my feelings of being slandered. I will not post anymore on this as I gave my word. I really appreciate all you guys having my back though.

There's a thin line between "we got your back" and "we're piling on your back for a piggyback ride".


Seriously though, there is a difference between parody and accusing somebody of copying something when
you yourself copied the same thing from somebody else. That isn't parody. That verges into the category of
"irony" and "hypocrisy" (dictionary definition links not available at this time).
