To Guida: Great attitude, I enjoyed reading that! I believe in pro-choice very much, and it's too bad the rest of the world doesn't think that way. So far, this month's casualty list includes the following: DarkWing-Zero - (All deleted solo products, going to DAZ) DarkScorn/Soulsilver - (Banned for some lame reason) NemainRavenwood - (Partially deleteded store) Baron Vlad Harkonnen - (Mostly deleted store) I'm upset about all of these for many reasons. 1.) DarkWing-Zero had announced she would be leaving and gave customers a notice her products would be here for one last week ending the 31st. They started disappearing way before this against her wishes and many didn't have a change to get them before they disappear. Very unprofessional of this site to do that. 2.) With Darkscorn/Soulsilver, there was a minor issue with a new pack and a major merchant here, and the site took the side of the Big $$ with no chance to fix the problem. I have the pack as a gift from them and have found no resemblences, but they are the new kids on the block, so... 3.) NemainRavenwood I'm not sure, but this merchant has been at DAZ for quite awhile anyway. Perhaps couldn't login to the site as it's up and down like a yoyo lately. 4.) This really sucks. The BVH stuff I use quite a bit and didn't get a chance to pickup all the V3 stuff I wanted. I also used his store as a reference for my credits list. No warning, no clue, just gone. Sucks! I'm sure this list will grow immensely over time, and if anyone else has any other disbanded merchants to add I'd love to see it. I need to contact them to make arrangements and do my commerce elsewhere apparently. Big pain in the ass, waste of time, and just plain lame. I'm not sure if all this is coincidence or somehow related to site issues or admin relations, but they are dropping like flies so to speak. If it was just some guy selling texture sets for the Freebie Pet Rock I wouldn't care so much, but these merchants and artists I consider to be a great loss to "our" community. I've been modeling my own stuff in Hexagon lately and I'm thinking of just making my own props and clothes for my images, forget this whole thing! Market this! Laffs
