I like this
you selected the CC0 license but you're asking for credit, so you should either change the license to something like CC BY / OGA BY (which would mean people have to credit you) or make it more obvious if you mean that crediting your name is optional (if thats your intention). i just wanted to let you know
He's not requiring attribution. It's voluntary. He understands the license he selected.
am i supposed to infer that?.....
If you are not going use his music then it doesn't matter. If you are, then the polite thing to do regardless of the liscense type is credit the artist's name.
I have no idea why you have chosen to be a random ass on the page of someone insanely generous who gives the community free assets without strings attached, it's entirely inappropriate.
Sorry for typo ** License
Yes, you should be inferring the optional attribution based on both the license selected and the the phrasing used: "please credit..." is a request. not a demand. The license is CC0, which doesn't require attribution. If this were the submitter's first submission on the site ever, and there was a clear conflict with the license (like phrasing that demanded something the license doesn't) then it might be appropriate to ask if he is aware of the issue. Given Pro Sensory has been on this site for over 9 years, it is also reasonable to infer he knows how things work.
sorry, i wasn't saying he doesn't know how things work, i just was confused by "please credit me", i usually only hear "please credit me" when people use CC BY so i thought there might've just been some mistake or something (because the asset was tagged CC0). i just wan tto make sure everything is clear because when things are like this its hard to tell what people mean. i have trouble understanding people sometimes, i dont meant to cause problems or be rude :(
Understood. Thanks for clarifying. The good news is, when in doubt, go by your favorite license listed in the left sidebar. If it does look like there's a conflict (which this did appear that way to you) there is no problem asking for clarification, or in the case above, you provided clarification in order to resolve the uncertainty. My first response to you was not meant to be critical of your comment; I was trying to resolve the confusion and indicate there is no real conflict and credit remains optional. :)
