Quote - I'm sure we will now see a decline in free stuff being posted here 

This in itself would make a whole lot of difference to me being one of 2 who had to approve a lot of the el crappo stuff that came out that hole.....would be a good idea in my books for them to politely back out of that venture and maybe start up again with a real set of rules and the will to enforce them. I see them getting flack from copyrights concerns soon also as I've spotted sold items up there, notably max objects mainly
They had a good and benevolent idea that they really didn't think out thoroughly.....too bad.. ...

As much as I'd love to blame this all on the spam of mediocrity that ShareCG experienced, part of the blame still has to rest with the owners/admins of the site who seemed both unwilling and unable to enforce even the slightest bit of policing their own site.  Yeah they had a staff of three or 4 folks working the site, but you wouldn't have known anyone was at the helm judging from the lack of presence they exhibited in policing their own forums.

I know several other users who were reporting copyright and spam in attempts to help but the people reported never seemed to be affected or stop, so it became apparent to me that reporting infringements wasn't worth my time. I was told on several occasions that certain infringing members would be removed but in the end they were not and they just continued or created new screen names with the same sort of content.

I'm dissappointed but I'm not surprised. The concept will not work without a lot of investment in time keeping the content policed and culled.
