Yeah, don't mess with Dusty because he is ****ing Jesus? Never argue with Dusty, his opinion is all that matters.

Seems to be a case of the ***** for that lad.

:facepalm:

I see them as refrenced images. Before the flower was sort of 'stolen' since it looks exactly like it. Same exact shape and everything, just mirrored to the other side of the head. These are merely like "I looked a picture up on the internet to look at while making this" even though this isn't close to that case.  

The knot in the brown bandanna does look like a rip, I will give you that.

The knot in the brown bandanna does look like a rip, I will give you that.

It's not. In the case of this knot it's a fairly small size, and only so many certain combinations. None of which involve any exact pixel matches. The fact of the matter is when comparing the knot where it's a handful of pixels, they're as different as you can be.

Nothing here is even close to a rip, even the subject matter can't be argued for since they're not based on original content. It's a sailors hat and bandana, two hats that have existed long before Maple Story. So to clear up any confusion:

1) It's not violating copyrights because they're not copyrighted designs.
2) They're not ripped because the pixels aren't even remotely close. Ya, if you step back and look at them you'll think "ya they look alike" because they're based on the same real-life counterparts, but the pixels aren't similar at all.

It's the most popular f2p MMORPG in the world.
It might be second to Runescape, idk but Runescape is terrible.  

WTB person studing law and plays graal to shut all you guys up. Generic hats are generic, big difference between the flower which was copy paste and rotated for all the views l0l.  

What kind of games do you kids seriously play. Graal is an exception... Not maple story

Maple Story is a side-scrolling MMORPG. Here is the link to the website :

Please notice the question mark in the title.
It looks like whoever made these hats ripped or edited them from Maplestory hats, not the first time this has happened either.
It would also explain why the side and back views of the Graal version of the hats look like crap.
The knot on the brown one looks exactly the same.

Anyways, you guys can judge for yourself.

Does it really matter? I don’t see what is the point of this thread since this whole game is pretty much a rip off from another game.

It does actually. Copying gameplay and stealing graphics are two entirely different things. There are lots of FPS games out there that play nearly exactly the same way, but if they were to start stealing/ripping graphics from other games then that's a big deal.
