Theft of Rune Factory 2 Bestiary Guide

A site that calls itself 'runefactory2power' has copied my Bestiary and Caves Guide word for word without giving me any credit for my work and without ever obtaining permission from me to post the guide on the site.

I think this is despicable, especially as there is full free access to my guides on IGN.

It is a pity that there are players of Harvest Moon who are entirely without ANY sense of honour or decency. Could there be any other reason to post one of my guides without crediting me for the work I have done?

I have made IGN aware of the breach but I really would hope that the person who stole my guide either would remove it or name me as the creator of it.

That is horrible. I have just started coming to your site, and it has helped me greatly. The love you have for this series is contagious, and I find it deplorable that someone would do this. I hope IGN puts the pressure on them, and they at very least recognize your work.

I at least know of one Harvest Moon/Rune Factory site I will NEVER visit.

D Figman, thanks for your message of support. I probably should be beyond this in spiritual terms but I hate to admit that this sort of theft does rankle. I work awfully hard and I make the information available freely, so why would any one steal it?

HOW ABOUT CREDITING ME WHO TOLD YOU THAT BASIC WEAPONS COULD BE UPGRADED WITH NO INGREDIENT AT ALL, in RF2?


When I said, with a comment, that your book was not complete.

Sincerely.......
