For example lets say I took a video and it’s FS from creator 1 and combined it with another video and FS from creator 2. Is that violation of any rules?
If you didn’t script either script then neither is yours, throwing them together isn’t the same thing as scripting an entirely new script.
If you want to use someone else’s script as a base it would be best if you asked for permission from both creators. If they allow it then you’re in the clear just remember to give credit.
edit: This is disregarding if its even against the rules or not, this is more about ethics of the matter and having the courtesy to contact the original scripters.

I have been wondering something similar, But I would ask it as "What makes a script yours? Scripting everything in the script, OR making something new, from something that’s been made, regardless of length?
You can’t take half a song/book/play/video and combine it with something else and say that it is yours. That is what copyright is. You need permission to use someone else work when you create what’s called derivate work. Sure, no one here will probably take any legal action like a film studio or record label would do, but it’s a good way to ruin your reputation here.

Yeah im just curious, its not like i was planning to start releasing ppls stuff as my own.
Rule regarding reposting scripts:
If you’re using someone else’s script(s) in the creation of a new one, ask for permission before posting.
You cannot repost or use another creators scripts.
You can ask for permission and edit one to make something new but without that users permission its against the rules.
