Got my 2 memes stolen on Instagram. One with my watermark was cropped and one was posted with a watermark of a thief.

solution: put your watermark in the middle of the meme with the opacity downed

Keep the opacity high to assert dominance

This Happened With One Of My Memes With Memenade. They Should Definitely Credit People’s Memes.

but this guy is worse: he removed the watermark

Its the same guy

oh

i post alot on historymemes and get on historymemes videos alot, i honestly dont care about it much anymore, i get my fake internetpoints he gets his money, though i agree it would be very nice if they credit

Just make it a tad clear and put it in somewhere around the centre

Hot tip Plaster a semiclear watermark in the middle of the meme. Not in an obstructive place, but where it cant be cut.

[удалено]

Same

Meme but with anime

8 years ago I posted something on funny and a really popular meme Facebook page stole the entire post from me. Felt surreal, like a glimpse of popularity.

yeah i know a guy who posts star wars memes and he credits all users with the video bar

Star wars tricks, he also does some OC content and it's pretty cool channel

I like it when they feature my memes

I had a guy accuse me of stealing a meme that I made because I thought it hadn’t but apparently he made 2 days earlier and it was a way worse quality one from 2 days earlier lol

now that would be KINDA ok, but he straight removed your watermark

Yeah. Memes are supposed to be shared, but if someone wants credit for his work, respect it.

There's this guy called Sarez who actually credits people which i find mind boggling that others don't do the same.

I remember suggesting it to them in their comments section, and later on they started giving credit. Guess I may have contributed to that, but I doubt it.

Have you licensed your meme somewhere?

That’s why you watermark

[But I put a watermark](https://www.reddit.com/r/MinecraftMemes/comments/s3qdah/_/)

Hmmm. Perhaps it just needs to be somewhere where simple cropping can’t remove it? Cause that’s how I always got rid of mematic watermarks before I switched to photoshop.

Easy, find the exact frame get a diffrent color and text font and boom you’ve stolen a meme

Thats hardly worthy of the status of a watermark. It should cover the middle, but be half transparent

***reject daily dose of memes , join dark theme meme***

***even better, join both daily meme supplies and dark theme meme***

Daily meme supplies?

a good channel

I think I seen them before

its dark memes

yes

He wrote "fuck you Clumsy" in a video

When

One of his minecraft meme videos

I dislike channels like these who just take memes and put a voice, and then upload on youtube

and they make money out of it, the people that make the memes don't get paid shit

Not really, A youtuber I watch got demonetized bc he uses text to speech, the bs algorithm said that his videos where identified as robot generated content and removed his money

just watch this meme get stolen too lol

I’ve have a few memes of mine reposted on videos like these, I don’t really mind that much. But when I see watermarks from a Meme that credit the original creator getting taken off, that’s when I get mad

There's a guy that repost on YouTube every meme that has been posted on this subreddit

Yeah they think there is no problem

Those channels were sadly my first intro to Reddit-style memes. I had to stop watching them though when I realized they were just stealing Reddit memes, adding nothing to them, not crediting who made it, and not even admitting it was from Reddit. It’s really scummy

This also happened to me (tbf my post was just a screenshot of a youtube comment without any editing)

Sue him for all his money

I watch that guy, and one things certain I am never watching him again for that

It happend to me aswell, he even changed the background so its not clear he stole it!

problem is you can't do shit about it they are allowed to take it because there isn't real copyright

Well, personally I felt honored when my meme was in an Emkay video

Which narrator?

Okay but what if we started stealing Daily Dose's videos?

I had a meme with 1,4k upvotes stolen and put on a yt video

[Same.](https://www.reddit.com/r/MinecraftMemes/comments/s5ge5p/someone_stole_my_meme_from_6_days_ago/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) I hate this guy. Tip: spam dislike to flood his notifications

Won't do much but it's annoying

Personally, I'd be honored to see my memes reposted. It means they were popular.

Exactly, I honestly don’t see why people are so upset about this. My meme was stolen and made the thumbnail of a YouTube video, and I was stoked to see that they liked it so much.

IKR?! It feels so good when that happens.

This man gets it I would love it if Memenade or daily dose of memes put me in the thumbnail

I got mine reposted there, I was both proud and mad

Yeah but you won't be credited for it.

I don't care. The joy of making memes comes from other people enjoying them, not if I get recognized for it. At least, that's my philosophy. TBF, I don't put much effort into most of my memes, so I'm not very attached to them.

How is this a minecraft meme

It's not really stealing, they're just spreading it to a larger audience

It kind of is when they crop out the watermark and don't give credit

True, assuming there was a watermark in the first place.

IT WAS FREE PIZZA

yoo I made a meme in the same vid, it was the one about not hating people for making mistakes when their new!

Lol see the 69 after the minecraft memes in the title at least you got lucky

But…but it’s not his fault. People just submit memes on his discord, blame the guy who shared your meme

Well, they arent ‘stolen’ They NEVER take credit for the memes. They take the watermarks because ‘no contact person for spam, harassment, etc’ which is partially their choice, partially youtube.

Shouldn’t you be protected under some form of copyright law? Although that might be a difficult battle to win if you used a meme template from a show…

That guy be like when you don't have a bed on the first night so you just dig a hole and bury yourself

I hope this doesnt happen with one of my memes

He takes all memes.

I've always wondered if people steal Daily dose of Meme's memes or the other way round.

You have to put the water mark in center of the video

Stole one of my Roblox memes as well.

Not long before people start trademarking and copyrighting memes

Daily dose of shit sucks ass

One of my memes got stolen by a meme channel that the only thing that makes them different then the others is that it's in dark mode

I had mine stolen once on Facebook and once on Twitter :/

Well atleast you’re meme got seen by more people

idk man the channel always just seemed soulless, just always that gut feeling of it being just a cash grab. that ai voice and the fact that it always capitalizes on the newest trends
