I'm not against the monitoring proceedure myself...the only concerns I ever had were 1)what happens about the existing freestuff? (Lyrra already kindly answered that, thanks Lyrra) 2) Who's monitoring the freestuff? and 3)are they going to monitor it fairly?

I don't think it takes an einstein to work out the power and responsibility a mod or admin has on ANY web-site, let alone this one, and how messy things can get if said mods or admin are being biased or un-fair in any way or form.

I understand that Caleb has the momentous task of monitoring the freestuff and as I have chatted to and shared thoughts on quite a few things with Caleb, I reckon he's one of the best people for the job - he's a very nice, kind, generous and fair person who I look up to and value quite a lot.

I wish Caleb and the Renderosity team the best of luck with this and hope it goes well.

Sadly, I am also aware of some people offering freestuff that isn't theirs and hopefully this new measure will screen such individuals out faster and easier.

I have no problem with any time delays for I'm a patient person....like I said earlier...my only gripe would only be about fairness and nothing else, after all this IS supposed to be a community where people should help each other (in my belief anyways).

Thanks for listening :-)
