My work is being illegally sold on World Zombie.ru

Recommended Posts

Hi guys.

I work for 1C-Softclub, Russian publisher of Arma2 games, and the case is that Arma2 lineup is in my account, and I happen to be DayZ player myselfs (two weeks). Today I found out about these guys (worldzombies.ru) and that they are charging money for playing DayZ-alike-mod. The idea is not appealing to me at all (taking money for not finished add-on), plus they don't care if you are using legal or pirate copy of Arma's games to play, which I can not tolerate, since we're the official local publisher.

That's why I unleashed our legal department on them. They are using the game we have rights for on our territory to gain money as unouthorized third party. I didn't knew that on top of everything these guys are using the map created by others and are not going to share the revenue, so now I really hope our legal boys shut them down. Just so you know, local publisher of Arma2 games is on your side. I found this thread after I did some recearch on the worldzombie.ru and now I have one more reason to pursue their fall.

Justice!

Hello everyone,

Sorry for being away for a while, I’ve just been caught up in other stuff and another project that I’m working on.

I will answer a few comments, and I also have a lot of thank yous to say before I tell you some good news that has happened recently.

First of all about Russia,

I highly regard that a lot of members of the Russian ArmA community have apologized to me for this mans actions, and don’t get me wrong I extremely highly respect that people stand up for me even to the point where they blame their whole country and have balls like that to apologize as well for the actions of one man. I guess this is deeply rooted in our Slavic culture and I highly regard it.

But please guys - do not blame yourselves for this, or Russia as a whole, or any country in Eastern Europe or the world, you or your country have done absolutely nothing wrong in what has happened and do not deserve to apologise for anything.

The fact is that a man who happens to be living in the Russian Federation is using other peoples content on his server to make a quick buck. Stuff like this happens in any country in the world. Please remain assured that you and your community will not be treated any differently because of what has happened, or any other community from any other country as a matter of fact because I’ve been in this community long enough to know that this isn’t how we roll at all. :wink_o:

boris;2254651']-Martin-' date=' it is very unpleasant.

I'm upset that it made my countryman. As a member of the Russian OFP-ARMA community, I bring you my apologies. Do not judge our entire community, one unworthy of man.[/quote']

Again, I highly regard your apology Boris, but I don’t want you to feel guilty for something you didn’t do. I think the scope of this whole thing magnified from a single man in Russia to swallowing the whole country – soon we would have to look at this in such a big scope that even the Polish members and Macedonian and Czech would have to feel guilty because after all were are the same people and that would just be completely insane :biggrin:

But it just goes to show that the majority of us are good honest people, and again, please be assured that nobody in the community will treat you guys differently because of what has happened.

So sad to see that people like Andrei exploit the hard community work and even attack back when they are caught red-handed. It makes me sick... but more pissed off. -Martin-: I have a solution:

Release an island update and put his picture + "THIEF WANTED" on roadsigns all over Taviana...

Hahaha that’s a good one, I will keep that as my last resource :biggrin:

Hi Pavel,

Thank you very much for the great help that you are giving me and everyone else involved in this matter. I highly highly value it, and wish you the best of luck, and I am optimistic that you guys will be able to at least shut them down because you live in the same country – whereas for me alone that is very difficult to do from the UK.

I have obtained Mr. Mukhin’s real name and address, whilst speaking to him on Skype, he basically said something like “bla bla take me to court if you want! This is my real name and address bla bla bla…â€

I don’t know if those details are real, but I will PM them to you shortly in case they can be of use to you.

If you need anything at all from me, please PM me or contact me by e-mail (I will include that in my PM to you). I speak Russian pretty well so you can write in Russian if you need to.

I thank you on behalf of the whole ArmA community!

Now the other good news:

I have received replies from the www.worldzombie.ru host which says:

Hello!

We have notified the site owner to take action in order toremove the content which infringes your rights. When we receive a response we will notify you immediately.

Thank you for your patience.

I have also received a reply from the vKontakte social media site which is very long to translate, but it basically says:

Hello,

Thank you for your email, we take copyright infringement very seriously etc…

In order to proceed please write a letter about the issues with your signature etc…

Send it to St. Petersburg etc…

Thank you vKontakte support team.

Which I will do shortly.

May be. Don't worry about it, i don't think anybody of VK officials realy cares about your mobile. In general, i think, VK is not so smapfull, as the facebook.

Ok, let's stay in a civilized.

A fist flash mob!

Step 1. Add the following contacts to your Skype - fly_byte, worldzombieru, WorldZombiesupport, romanbaykov, sega1701, Arichikaarifuka.

Step 2. Send (copy-paste) following message "Ты - жулик! Ðам извеÑтно, что Ñ‚Ñ‹ воруешь контент, и мы требуем прекратить Ñто!". Send this to all contacts listed above.

This means about "You - a crook! We know that you steal content, and we demand stop it now!"

Becuz Mukhin - is not the kind of person, who understands polite requests.

I appreciate that your goal is to help, but please do not ever misrepresent the translation of something you are asking other people to write, especially something that is vaguely a threat. I personally find it rather abhorrent that you would have people unwittingly swear at and threaten this man. Do not let this happen again.

Hi, Martin!

I am again want to reassure you that the whole russian community is totaly on your side and will try to do the best to help you in that situation.

Do you plan to continue persuading administration vkontakte.com to ban this "worldzombie" group?

Why not to try to block their channel on YouTube? As I know YouTube moderators are very attentive about issues of copyright protection.

Thank you for clearing that up. I can see why BETEP_OFP posted what he did then. But, just to reitterate, he (or anybody else) must not post comments to threaten or defame others, especially with a false translation. Period.

I don't see any reason to threaten Mr. Mukhin or even bring his family in to this as I read in some previous post; I think it can only make matters worse. Two wrongs don’t make a right, and threatening him is basically doing exactly what he did to me which was rather amusing and made a lot of people including myself doubt his age and intelligence. Kids do this kind of stuff in 5th grade.

However I appreciate if people take the time to politely contact him and tell him to take the stuff down, big thank you to you all. If we achieve justice, I will make a statue in the centre of Sabina on Taviana with the name of everyone who left a reply in this thread :wink_o:

Thank you,

I know, the Russian community in ArmA is very good - even since the OFP days, they produce very cool content and I’ve been working with them quite closely during Taviana to get it out in to the Russia community more mainly because I was contacted by the owner of this site www.arma.at.ua who likes the island so much that he permanently put it in to the headlines of the website just to say thanks.

Did you get any reply from YT yet?

Nope, I'm still waiting :sad: But I'm glad that the hosting company and VK team have replied to me. Maybe I should e-mail YouTube again?

I would wait another week or so, they are not only processing your requests i guess and possibly they are just verifying whether your claims are legit. Just give it a bit more time.

This topic frontpaged on flashpoint.ru with links here and on flashpoint.ru help topic.

Pay attention, that "help topic" does not represent any official position of the Flashpoint.ru resource. But contains lots of lulz and some facts from Muhin's life.

For example -

Mukhin sells DayZ cheats (stolen, i sure) :D

Mukhin advertises their cheats (sorry, i don't understand DayZ-theme well, so tranlation can be little incorrect)

3) Teleportation (to any point on the map)

4) Spawn of any vehicles (not explodes)

5) Any weapon

7) Spawning bots-bodyguards up to 41 per time, and ability to control them (not displayed in the list of players)

8) Give any gear to any player on the server.

9) The map with display of units and vehicles.

hi,

This is very much out there but someone could host a server with the exact same features but for free which will undermine his 'business'

Good suggestion.

Yes, or they are just busy dealing with other issues. We will see - hopefully the videos will get taken down ;)
