This website exists as an independent archival journal and gaming resource. Visual media, written encounter breakdowns, and strategic field notes are published here to document game spaces and educate players. Respecting original ownership and intellectual property rights remains a primary standard across all published entries.
This policy explains where the imagery across these archives originates, how fair use principles guide commentary, and the exact steps for creators or copyright owners to request attribution adjustments or content removal.
Origin and ownership of visual media
The imagery displayed throughout these articles is generated directly through gameplay or sourced from officially recognized developer materials.
- Personal gameplay captures. The vast majority of screenshots, boss encounter stills, and environmental landscapes come directly from my own play sessions. These captures are gathered between pulls, during instance routing, and while walking open territory boundaries.
- Official promotional material. When a game developer or publisher provides press kits, official render packages, or early access promotional assets, the material is accompanied by a caption identifying the development studio or source organization.
- Independent creative assets. Fan art, community diagrams, or external charts are never published without direct author permission and visible attribution linking back to the original creator.
Fair use and educational commentary
The visual assets featured on this site support written guides, tactical evaluations, and historical documentation.
Screenshots are utilized under fair use standards to illustrate specific mechanical points: demonstrating boss positioning, verifying mob pathing lanes, highlighting obscure quest geography, and analyzing user interface layouts. Images are never extracted or repurposed for separate commercial merchandise or stand-alone distribution.
Submitting an infringement notice or attribution request
If you are an artist, photographer, or copyright holder and believe that an image, graphic, or piece of media has been published here without proper authorization or fitting credit, I welcome direct communication to resolve the matter promptly.
To ensure your request is reviewed immediately, please submit your notice through the contact page with the following information:
- The exact web address and page title where the contested visual or text appears on this site.
- Clear proof of ownership, such as a direct link to the original publication on your primary portfolio, studio repository, or professional account.
- A brief explanation of the resolution you prefer, whether you want an updated credit line with a backlink to your portfolio, a correction to existing caption notes, or immediate removal of the asset.
- A valid email address so I can correspond with you directly.
How claims are processed and resolved
I manage this website independently, meaning your inquiry does not get lost in an automated queue or filtered through a third-party legal clearinghouse.
- Messages submitted through the contact page are read and addressed personally within a few business days.
- Valid takedown requests result in immediate deletion of the asset from server files and live blog posts.
- If your request involves correcting an author credit or adding a preferred portfolio link, the adjustments are applied and published without unnecessary delay.
Maintaining trust with readers and creative peers matters far more than holding onto an uncredited image. If something belongs to you, reach out directly, and it will be resolved with minimal friction.
