Another protestation of innocence. sigh To create clones in order to post comments on one's one image and votes and excellent rankings is in violation of the Renderosity Terms of Service. "Member/User Conduct: Members and users are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that is constructive and respectful of others at all times. Additionally, we would hope that each member/user would do their best to facilitate a culture of collaboration and positive reinforcement, so that we can all share our passion for art while realizing our personal ambitions, and developing friendships." Constructive and respectful are key words here. That means you don't take advantage of the system to stroke your own ego at the expense of other members of the Vue community here. "Conduct - Zero Tolerance Renderosity maintains a Zero Tolerance on certain behaviors within the community. These include, but are not limited to the following. Soliciting or Trading of any products illegally. This includes, but is not limited to, requests and/or distribution of computer software, software security overrides, serial numbers and/or admission of use or possession (warez). Intentional practices that affect the normal operations of the community (Admins will take whatever steps are necessary to restore service)." I think the admins and moderators here give a lot of thought and research to each situation. But the TOS spell things out pretty clearly and unambiguously. From the main forum, I understand that when a member is warned and banned, the reasons are explained clearly. So I think the protestations of innocence are more than a little disingenuous. Just like irl, there are rules of behavior here; when we join, we all agree to abide by them. Plain and simple.
