Without going back to find it in this thread, I also recall someone asking me "What Have You Done for poser today". I don't remember who and don't really care. What I have and haven't contributed to this community has no bearing on my status as part of the community, IE: whether or not I'm in the community or out of it.

For the record though, I hosted freebies up until February of this year for many other people in this community at lostin3d.com until I had to close it for financial reasons. That site was up and completely free to the community for 6 years! I never once asked for a dime to host for other people.

Also, I've released several freebies of my own morphs, characters and objects and still share a few of them via my yahoo briefcase. Just because I've never been a merchant or never charged a dime for my contribution that doesn't make my contribution any less real or valuable than those of a merchant who's just out for a quick buck. I'd say I'd earned quite enough Kharma in my contributions to this community thank you very much.

As for telling me to invest more time in developing my talents and less time in threads like this, that begs the assumption that I'm not doing it and is over the line. Most of you people who are claming I'm somehow misbehaving or have some deep dark hidden anti-Poser agenda don't even know me.
