Hi. Recently I made an UGC item called Hood of The Forest, and yesterday it got a DMCA strike from a user called “manopukis”:
This person’s account (manopukis) was made 11 years ago:
Also, this person verified his / her account back in 2024 (10 years later, you can check it):
This person’s account was password guessed or bought just to make false DMCA strikes. Here’s a proof:
Just look on the time. These models were made five minutes before he / she verified the account & received the hat. Now, let’s look on one of the models:
This person just stole other items from catalog and made them as his / her own model to make false DMCAs for other creators.
All of these models were uploaded on 25th of December 2024.
Now, let’s look onto my item called “Hood of The King”:
It was originally inspired from an item called “Hood of Heroes” from RB Battles event (it was a free non-limited UGC):
I used the same mesh and texture in my item, but why does it received a DMCA strike from manopukis, which just inserted the item and uploaded it as his / her own model back in December, 2024.
Also, the group called “QUICK UGC!” steals popular Roblox UGCs, such as RB Battles Season 2 swords and etc:
They even have this description of their community:
They’re stealing models from Roblox’s official account, and then making false DMCA claims on people.
Please, unban my item called “Hood of The King”, because I spent all my wallet on it and my countless time. Also, please, terminate manopukis’s account, because it was stolen or bought on black market. Thanks!
I also tried to appeal it, but didn’t received a great reply:
Also, the minus is that these strikes are permanent, and you can’t even appeal your account if you get your account terminated.
I hope Roblox admins would see it.
