Please make sure suggestions are pertinent and relevant! What you want to see? - I Would like to see the classic 173 SCP in the server because everyone knows SCP 173 and hes the most known but as you known already his OG Model was copyrighted by the Creator of SCP 173. So my conclusion to this is that we replace the OG Model of 173 with the Weeping Angel Statue. If you know the lore of the Weeping Angel the Weeping Angel is the exact same concept of the 173 and actually 173 Was based off of the Weeping Angel Concept. (I AM FULLY AWARE THIS WOULD NOT BE 100% WITH THE LORE BUT IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE 173 BACK ON THE SERVER.) Why should we add it? - Well multiple Reasons. 1: We already have the unused cell for 173 that is going to waste. 2: 173 is the most ICONIC SCP there is and if this was added back with the same concept it would Bring more popularity to the server. 3: If this SCP Was added with it being so iconic and loved it would fit perfectly in the SCP Job Pack and with that being more money would be sent to the server for people to get advantage of playing the most iconic SCP as well as this SCP bringing back New Strategies and Changes to the server for its play style. What are the advantages of having this? - This was kindof already explained in the last message. Who is it mainly for? - Everyone. I feel the whole server could benefit from this SCP Being added back even if the model would be different the concept is still the same. Even if you arent playing the SCP you will still encounter and rp with this SCP. Links to any content - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=123326329&searchtext=weeping+angel

It shouldn't be. The original photographer of 173 (Keisuke Yamamaoto) has no say in the concept of 173 itself. His ability to copyright goes as far as the picture and design and that's it because its his picture thus his design. However, 173 itself was made by the Foundation Wiki which information retaining on there is for free use. Let me explain. The image of SCP-173 (officially called Untitled 2004) was given to the Wiki by Kato for the purpose of the wiki however, he never released the image by the Creative Commons and because of this he holds copyright privileges to the photo. Those who use the photo or its likeness is able to face legal actions. However, The text on SCP-173 wiki is different. The text of the wiki (so everything about 173) was released in the creative commons BY-SA 3.0 and because of this anyone is able to freely use the concept and information on SCP-173 Provided they do not use the image restricted.

I Was under the impression that only the model of the 173 was copyrighted not the concept the concept should be ok.

i mean its a way to not get copyrighted for using 173 i wouldn't mind this but eh

About time you applied.
