Atriz, I do not think you have even been following this from the beginning. This was all supposedly sorted 5 days ago then Jayce decides to go ahead and do this. It is disgraceful behaviour on his part.
As for my use of bad language, as you can imagine I am pretty pissed off when 10 months of hard work gets put on the line because someone comes out making brash accusations without even speaking to us first.
Mihai asking me back in September if I would be an advisor:

Proof this is him, a message inviting me to their upcoming event:

Let me make it clear for you. You work, develop, and bla bla on your project for 10 months, even asked to be an advisor, but you cant afford to create your own design? Is that kind of joke?
Seems I have to change my question. DID you TAKE my design, EDIT and CHANGE SOME SMALL PARTS on that for your own project? YES or NO? If you admit that, I'll lock this thread. That's all. Another bullshit wont help you.
Yes, we did use bits of your design to create our signature campaign but we changed them so that they would not be identical. A lot of signatures look similar and we figured that was due to people doing exactly that. There is nothing wrong with taking inspiration from designs, in fact big companies do it all of the time. This is simply how things work.
If you do not like that, fair enough. But to go as far as putting down our project, giving us negative trust and questioning the ICO's legitimacy is absurd.
You are in no position to question our professionalism. If you had reached out to us before causing a scene on both of our threads and then here, we probably would have offered to compensate you or even changed the signatures (despite the fact this would not be considered plagiarism in any court of law). Instead you took it way too far.
Perhaps I should reach out to Mihai and point out the lack of professionalism of those involved in running his bounty campaign? And highlight the reputational risk of letting such people work on the Modex bounty campaign?
