In this place, yes, you are wrong. Sorry, Edgnet, Jack and all the others have made it clear that the more popular something is the harder it is to keep it free. Hey, the bandwidth costs they tell us. So if we want to keep coming here then we'd better buy and sell. I suppose that's what we'll be doing at Poserworld too pretty soon since the bandwidth there is causing problems in downloading. Someone just wrote to John (Malis, that is) today asking him why he doesn't just sell his characters instead of giving them for free. I guess this would drive bandwidth down since there will be fewer buyers than people who download free items. Hey! Now that's an idea Edgenet. Get rid of all the free stuff and you won't have to deal with that much traffic driving up your bandwidth costs :) As for the money and exchange, well if you sell things to make money to buy things (for Poser that is) then the only ones making a profit are the money managers :) Hmmmm maybe I should just become a broker, Hey anybody want me to sell something for them? Oh, and by the way, the data base and ready-to-buy clientele had already gathered here because of the free stuff. Nowhere else can you open up shop in the middle of customers, usually you have to wait for them to find you!
