I haven't checked the Complaint and Debate forum in a few days, so I was totally unaware anything like this was going on. Since my poses were involved in this issue, I feel like I should make a statement. Although I would have prefered that my poses not be included in a collection, I don't have a problem with what Maier did. He did his best to make it clear that the poses were not his creations, and to me it only looked like he was trying to do us a service by combining similar poses into one large compliation. I still believe that he could have put a little more effort into tracking down the original poses' creators, but no harm was done in the end (at least, not to me). Just my opinion, but pulling his pose collections is punishment enough; there's no reason for him to be banned. I deal with people every day who's native language is not English, so I know how misunderstandings can arise. Just because we're all coming off the Spain infringement doesn't mean we should pound anyone who seems suspicious, nor should we stop contributing because someone MIGHT use our work without our consent.
