pdblake is right - close the site, lose the visitors to the site, end up with nothing for your members and nothing to offer the greater 3D community, all because someone managed to find one person's site, out of most likely a number of such sites, that is illegally selling copyrighted work. Let's get real, people! There are and will continue to be scumbags and theives on the internet, not just this one jerk. But does that justify walling off the world? Who wins with that logic? Certainly not the innocent! Personally, I feel that if someone's actions punish me wrongly for something that I did not do or condone, than I don't need that someone in my life. I'll miss your site and I'm sorry to see you go, but I am no more understanding or tolerant of your re-actions than I am to the thief's actions. Sorry to be so blunt, but that's the way I feel. If I'm missing something here - i.e., an understanding of the function of the Propsguild and how isolating it from the rest of the 3d community serves the good of anyone or solves the specific problem at hand, I am open to reconsidering my opinion.
