Hello, I'm agreed with Anton's complains about this issue, if someone steals others work and post it as this issue probes I think someone in Renderosity's team is not doing the work of checking free stuff posts, I know that there is imposible to verify one by one all the files which are posted ad free stuff, but if you got a fair complain which shows you solid proofs as Anton did, I agree that the TOS has to be aplied without remorse. I do belive that artists must show solidarity when someone is trying to screw one of the artists of this community, specially an artist like Anton, who have given too much for the poser community via his freebies and commercial models. Anton you have all my solidarity and I second your petition to Renderosity's team to aply the full penalty which is settled at the TOS. The TOS can't be aplied by convenience, there is not space for interpretations, it is very clear about this kind of issues, on the other hand the ignorance of the law don't is not a excuse to violate it, and here are serious copyright violations. Renderosity has a good shield because they don't store the files which are offered at the free stuff area, but they provide the links to get those files, so this problem affects Renderosity site too. My advise to Renderosity's team is to take important actions to void issues like this one in the future, the years which has been taken to renderosity to make a solid reputation trough the 3D community could be trowing to the trash in few days, if the TOS is not aplied. Don't take me wrong, I just hate when a good reputed artist is ripped off by people without ethics. Virus
