patorak - i understand youre trying to help, but try and understand that making statements such as 'daz can claim all V4 textures as derivatives' is incensing to all add-on creators.

and yes, im in total agreement with you about revising the EULAs to be even clearer to people in these new markets that Daz is plunging us into against our will.

either way the SL issue is pretty cut and dry. you are violating both the SL and Rosity EULA by submitting content to which you do not own the distribution rights to SL.
this is aside from the CopyBot issue.

and with regards to CopyBots: theyre not just a one-time thing. they will always be around, and soon there will be even more of them. any content uploaded to a medium like SL, much like the web, is extractable since it has to be uploaded to everyone you come into contact with. people in denial about copybots need to understand more about multiplayer game engines and how content such as copybots, wallhacks, etc work. by submitting custom content to a game, that content is potentially up for grabs to anyone in that game that comes into contact with your avatar (either via 3rd party utilities or just searching cached files). hiding your head in the sand and saying 'theres no such thing as copybots' or 'copybot users will be banned' doesnt change a thing.

its like someone taking your textures and putting them on a website, but then putting a no-right-click/save script up to 'protect' them, and then saying that they are not in an extractable medium. then when someone simply disables scripts, uses the firefox>page info workaround, or simply uses a browser that the script does not affect, they say 'well thats just a minority of people'.
if ONE person accesses that work you have distributed it in violation of the EULA.
