If these stores were brick-and-mortar, these policies would be in place long ago. Walmart wouldn't allow Kraft to go into their store and advertise something that they only have for sale at Albertson's.
Err, what?
Jen... Sean actually nailed it - I can buy the same Kraft product at WalMart, Albertson's, Fred Meyer... your point is pretty much a (albeit unintentional) strawman argument when it comes to Poserdom.
Let's modify it to a more relevant example: WalMart and other retailers apparently have zero problems with allowing employees and managers direct you to other stores by name if they don't have what you're looking for. Why does Renderosity suddenly have a problem with this?
This isn't an isolated incident, either - breaking ties with Content Paradise stands out among other indicators.
Seriously - when I find myself agreeing with Anton and Sean Martin in this thread, maybe somebody in the PTB should reconsider their motives here?
