Quote - **Adding ik chains isn't that hard...add your own.
The downside to buying less expensive content (in a lot of cases) is lack of features. I know some vendors have not included quite a number of features specifically because they felt they had to reduce retail price to stay competitive in the marketplace.

You are kidding, right?

First of all, I don’t buy cheap items. Secondly, I'm not concerned with whether or not a vendor adds or subtracts features. I only care when an items **description doesn't state whether or not standard features have been subtracted or even excluded from the design process altogether. Thirdly, I am an animator of high quality, cinema length features and my projects consumes most of my time (an understatement) therefore I don't have the time to fix what should have already been present in an item. I have the right as a consumer to be made aware of what I am buying, period. Such a lack of disclosure is misleading and I can't understand why you would defend such a thing.

And yes, you were defending it with that reply. That's what you stated I should do. When the feature doesn't appear to be present after the purchase is complete I should just let it slide and add the feature myself and ignore the fact that its absence was never disclosed prior to the point sale. A vendor should have to disclose the lack of any standardized features that would normally be expected to be present in an item, such as a humanoid character model using IK chains? If I have misunderstood your comment, then please elaborate. Otherwise, your response to me seemed more as if you were saying "quit whining". Not a nice thing to direct at someone making a valid point and definitely not a wise thing to say in a public forum to a person who is asking for a stronger discloser policy in the Marketplace, something that would benefit innocent consumers.

Lets try this: if a car model is being sold in the Marketplace as a pz2 or pp2, but the vendor doesn't state that the model is actually a one-piece object converted to Poser figure or prop format; and after purchasing the item and discovering that the wheels, doors, etc. don't move, I should just let it slide and fix the item myself, having no right to complain about the lack of disclosure? Customers should be very careful when dealing with a vendor that doesn't concern themselves with full disclosure. How can you trust the practices of a vendor or the Marketplace itself if you can't trust the product description policies of the items being sold therein? Who would defend incomplete product disclosure and misleading sales practices. That’s what the lack of disclosure is, a misleading sales practice, whether it is intentional or not.**

To exclude such a fact in the products description is obviously wrong. You don't need the court system or a layer or even a priest to tell you the difference between right and wrong, do you? Renderosity needs to obligate its vendors to list the absence of ANY standardized features in a products description, from textures and props to deformers and IK chains. You already have to state “texture and hair not included”. Why not IK chains?
