Hello RCTgo,
Forgive me if this is posted in the wrong section - there were no other places to post this. I regret to make this topic, but maybe this will get the attention of the staff of this site. I've sent this message to every member of staff on this site:
To whom it may concern,
I'm a member on another RCT3 based site called vPyro.com - it is a site created specifically for the pyrotechnics side of the RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise. I'm writing to you today to address a problem with your site regarding stolen effects from that site from one of your members. Please let me direct your attention to this specific download:
http://rctgo.com/downloads/view/5705
This user "ThePiggy" was apart of vPyro named "TheBadPiggy" - this user was of course banned from the site for spamming and causing trouble on the forum. It turns out that this user is now on your board giving out effects that are property of vPyro - this is a crime against vPyro. All of the effects that are in this "Best Fireworks Eveeer" Pack is the property of their creators and to vPyro. While vPyro acknowledges that the creators of these effects can do whatever they wish with their effects, another member can not just take all effects and zip them up and do what they wish with these effects. This uploaded pack is an illegal upload towards our site and vPyro can take action of it.

While I'm aware these are not this site's Terms of Service it is still a violation of vPyro's. All I'm asking for this site to do is to take down that specific download and to please be more cautious in the future. We've asked "ThePiggy" to take down his download, but of course he will not do it.
Thank you,

I have not received a response and it's been a week. This is the last time vPyro asks for you guys to take down these effects, they are not your property - you don't have the right to release them. You've received messages from another vPyro staff member and you've ignored him too. Please, before this situation gets any worse - take down the effects.
