Man, that is a pisser that they're banning Nerd for something the management should have done themselves. They always kill the messenger don't they? The administration had planned an announcement of this on their own. Nerd jumped the gun -- and broke the Merchant's Code of Conduct in the process. I did, and was banned from the merchant forum for my efforts. You pay a price for speaking your mind -- always. Moreso in places where you cannot. "I'm hyperventilating, OK? I feel faint. I'm worried that artists might pull ALL of their stuff from R'sity because they feel offended that one of their items is deleted! " Get a paperbag and hold on. Some artists may. Most won't. Because the policies that are going into place are no different from Poser Pro's policies. And are less restrictive thatn DAZ's. And both of those sites are doing ok. "While sex sells, and no one's going to deny that, people WILL deny that they're interested in buying. A large percentage of people who purchase anything sexually oriented, or watch porn, or make naughty pictures wouldn't want to broadcast that publicly." Well said. However, they will go to renderotica. Most of the folks I've known make a trip there at least once, and they do have stuff that's useful beyond the pornographic and even pornographic stuff that's useful outside of it. What, you think Dina can only be used for sexual imagery?
