ZeroXephon Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 Two questions. 1. If I were to have art commissioned of my unique character and have it printed on a t-shirt, or coffee mug, or something and have it available for myself and others to buy would that get me banned from homecoming? The character is unique as in it does not exist in any intellectual property, game, movie, tv show, comic, nothing. It does not look like anything from the former mentioned either or can even be construed as. I was unable to find anything in the polices outlined in this forum about not being able to do this. 2. If I had t he ability to make props from the game. Specifically the devil duck, would that be infringing on the intellectual property? This one I can kind of see because it is an in game asset, but still...its a rubber ducky, they already exist, just maybe not without the devilish features. Please advise Homecoming team.
Nerio72 Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Devil Duckies exist already... Edited October 19, 2020 by Nerio72
Nerio72 Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 As far as *your toon, I imagine if you aren't profiting from it it may be ok. But I may be wrong. Selling them probably not...

ZeroXephon Posted October 20, 2020 Author Posted October 20, 2020 Well yeah, there is no way I am going to post it all over homecoming, but as far as the private discords go.... I rather avoid getting banned, what is why I would like a ruling from gracious overlords.

Retired Game Master GM Tock Posted October 21, 2020 Retired Game Master Posted October 21, 2020 This isn't really pertaining to in-game support, so I'll lock this conversation. Nerio72 is right though, as the 'Devil Rubber Ducky' existed long before I was born, and is a non-issue. ZeroXephon, I'll send you a PM about your situation. In the future, any Code of Conduct questions not relating to in-game issues should be asked using the Support tool.
