Quote -    So I guess it is my turn now..let me see..how shall I start?
 I will start by saying how I feel about what I have seen here so far.
There are 4 types of posters here. The first are the honest ones. The second are The Spammers who abuse this forum just to write anything silly to place their Spam. The Third are plugins from Renderosity themselves and Fourth are those Like one of you said the sockpuppets,  but for Renderosity not from me. I have also realized by all of this that there is a Clic or shall I say a Clan or maybe a Society ! That does not welcome the fact that some strangers come in.
 Now let me answer most of you as short as possible cause I have other things to do in life than spend my day on forums.
   Most of you have "Missed the Boat completely". My Question was "How are we all treated here at Renderosity as Client, Sponsor, and Vendor?" And I have given you a short personal example of How a Vendor was treated and how I myself as Sponsor and Client had been treated. First let us start again from the beginning....... Ciao.

Yadda, yadda, yadda...  I already read your opening post.  There's no need to restate it.

Quote - ...(But the real reason I think RO  turned it down is because is a Black Character) and Black Characters are difficult to work with since you really do need some good experiance with your lights etc and get a good render to bring out the best of the char's features. So indeed  she would sell less but don't come to us and say that she she would not. Or is it that some are afraid of good competition and are protecting their preferances?...

That's a load of horse hockey.

First of all, I'll say this: From what I saw of the character where it is now being sold, it wasn't worth paying for.  That is the honest-to-goodness truth.  It isn't because it was black.  It was because it appeared like it was very a very poorly done collection of 32+ Merchant packs.  I saw nothing original, interesting, innovative or appealing in that product.  Nada.. Zilcho.. Zip.  That has nothing to do with the character being black.  Not one thing.  It just looks plain "bad" and not worth buying.  There was nothing at all unique about the product or even half-way interesting.    Who's fault is that?  The artist may be the most talented person to grace the face of the planet.  I don't know.  I certainly can not tell that from the way the product was presented and certainly can't tell that from the content listing or the description of the features of the product.

In my opinion as a customer and 3D hobbyist along with my years of practical business, marketing and managing experience:  In short, it wasn't worth hosting because it probably wouldn't sell in the highly competitive V4 cornucopia of already poorly done characters.
