I really don't get why someone would rather post a link in a forum thread than put it in a highlighted area specifically for freestuff?

I want to host my freebies on my own server for several reasons. At the moment my free items have round about 5 Gig traffic per month. I can't bear mutch more traffic (same reason why Rendo wont host my freebies). I have to move some items around. I manage several internet servers and some parts are delivered from my home hosted Linux server.

Renderosity is using his simple freestuff list as a cheap and effective marketing tool. So, Renderosity makes money with what other people offers for free - and have to pay for themselve.

Those freebies not listed directly but mentioned and talked about in the forums keeps users hunting for treasures.
