?? You know what Kills me? Is that if this were NOT made public folks would just continue on doing this and by the time anyone took notice there would be a bazillion downloads with no need for anyone to then buy the product from Daz.. then Daz would have to increase the price on the product a huge amount just in hopes that they can make their margin before someone offered it for free. In the end this is the type of thing that could cost me and every one of you time or money .. Time because if this continues why should Daz bother to even offer maps for sale? (They take a huge amount of money to create .. they have to pay for the model .. the photography and so on.) If they decide to not include them in the future that means I have to take the time to create my own (and you want to bet they will not be as good). Or like I said they could increase the price trying to make the margin fast, costing me money. I hate to see anyone made uncomfortable .. but if this person has been a long time forum member they should have known this was not alright to do no? An apology is nice and I am glad it was made .. but I still think these thing need to be handled in public If for no other reason than to try to stop the flood of download immediately and let folks that have downloaded the item know that it is not okay to use the map.
