To give credit to someone is to write that person at the map's credits for doing that thing, and not letting others assume that you made it. If you use some other peoples resources in your map but don't give credits to those people (as in thanking those people for helping you by making skin x or icon y) it is like stealing those resources.

Yes, you definately should. Just because other people are, ******* idiots you don't have to be one, right?

Give credit or DON'T use other people's resources.

Or, you can be the lazy one and say thanks to all who made the models in my map, works either way.

NOPE! Cos a person who download it would have no chance to know who made it, and might want to use it, but couldn't give credit.

Also, I would be pissed if someone used one of my resources and just said thanks, without telling who they thank.

Metal_Sonic, your way of giving credits ain't much better than stealing!

i think it would be kind of troublesome to go back and search for the list of people. just post a quest for further thanks and if someone messages you, just add them to the list of thanks in your coming version. oh and dont mind me but... i prefer to see "credit" as an english word instead of a warcraft 3 term... my bad.

You mean like this:
"Thankts to:
-person1
-person2
-personN
"
?

That's not credit. You have to tell what resource is made by who.

SO WHAT??? If you can't give proper credits and it's to much trouble for you, DON'T USE OTHER PEOPLES DAMNED RESOURCES! your way of creaditing is n00bish, do your think everyone would download your crappy map to ever see it?

Blade * guess what I'm thinking *

Mods could get angry if they find maps without credit (if they know the imported resources).

Only one right way of giving credits:
"All custom resources used in this map and their authors:
-CoolSword.mdx & CoolSword.blp, person1
-BTNCoolIcon.blp & DISBTNCoolIcon.blp, person2

Thanks for your work!

All resources were downloaded from www.wc3sear.ch."
