yup, the Napster correlation does look similar. I think freestuff needs an approval process too. I think an idea would be to have people apply to offer things for free first, where they have to part with some confidential personal information. You might have less free stuff, but I think in the long run we'd all be better off. I used to be involved with the game mod community, and know for a fact that this behaviour is mainly to say to your buds 'look how great I am' And some take the short cut to that notoriety, guessing perhaps they might not be caught, or that enough people do the same thing they do, so nobody will do anything about it, and jeer/witchhunt the people that actually have the guts to complain. (I've been there, so I know) So here I am cheering Anton on... go Anton go. Never stop talking about it, because when we stop talking about it is when the honest majority of this community loses. In the end, this warezing kills the creativity of the community, because what happens is that the people that actually create the cool stuff stop doing it. and Anton, I love that bombshell hair.. thanks for making it. :) Its the closest to my hair in real life.
