It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out his many aliases, just go look at the galleries of his "friends" and you'll see what I'm talking about; same software, same artistic and creative ability, same themes. I remember when he first started posting in the Terragen gallery, and at the same time another noob or two to Terragen started posting with him. It was obvious they were one and the same. All so HE could post six or nine images a day, then immediately compliment himself with his other aliases, and of course rating them as excellent in the process. What I've read within this thread absolutely disgusts me. This BlackUnicorn fellow needs to have his account and his gallery deleted immediately - as in TODAY. If Renderosity gives a DAMN about this Bryce community - the ENTIRE RENDEROSITY COMMUNITY for that matter - they will take the needed steps necessary to correct this situation to protect the honest, DECENT, and contributing members here. Yes, I know they do. If this were my domain, I know what I'd do, and I'd do it SWIFTLY. Removing his comments isn't enough; it doesnt even BEGIN to remedy the situation. His account needs to be removed immediately, and an investigation should be done to determine his other aliases and those accounts should be eliminated as well. His ISP should be contacted, and the transcripts of his threats sent to both them AND local law enforcement in his community. Ornlu, it goes without saying your work and contributions to this community are exemplary. You should have no doubt whatsoever about the level admiration you receive here. I will also make a similar statement to other legitimate Bryce artists here; you give me, a new Brycer, having just got the software last week and awaiting my recommended RWB4 book, the inspiration to one day hopefully be a great Bryce artist. Or at least an acceptable one :) But while achieving that self-imposed goal, I want to feel safe here from the likes of BlackUnicorn; I want to feel assured that Renderosity will not only protect ME from this type of INSANITY, but will protect other members here as well. If I cant receive that simple request, then sadly, I wont be a contributing artist here, and that would certainly create a most grim situation for me personally, to say the least. I used to post a lot to the Terragen gallery, but removed it for personal reasons. But I want to let yesterday move further into the past, and move ahead to tomorrow within this gallery to learn from the creative minds herein. Ive missed posting to Renderosity, and want to change that. I want to learn all I can about Bryce from the great people here in this forum, and within the gallery. It all depends on Renderosity management, and how they respond to the insults against Ornlu, and to the entire web site itself. Yes, there are always potholes in the road, I'm willing to risk a damaged rim or two, but what happened to Ornlu is simply not acceptable. AgentSmith, I know youre sickened by this as well, and I would hope that you direct the powers that be to this very thread. I would hope that they will feel compelled to correct this situation, with the ONLY possible solution, and to act swiftly upon it. BTW: the mailman just delivered my book! Happy, and SAFE, "Bryce-ing" to all :)
