I think there's a general unhappiness that boils down to a lack of trust in the people that run Renderosity. I buy what I need, be that here or elsewhere. I'm sadly easily swayed by coupons and sales. ;) However, if I can find an alternative to buying stuff here, I try to do so. It is related to a fear that if I buy something here, and it turns out to have been ripped off from someone else, that I will lose out. Please see the related attached thread, it is just another facet of why trust has been damaged. I've seen this place claim to be a Community. To me a Community implies caring for others, and doing right by them. You don't just up and change the rules and not allow discussion, and you DO give refunds to people that have bought 'stolen goods' in your store. Now, what I have seen here is more Business than Community. The Corporate feel. The 'higher-ups' do what they want when they want to, and avoid giving refunds. Business approach is fine, but don't try to pass it off as Community.
