I have used this name since being accused by admin of being a troll,after being critical of a number of half naked women women with sword images in the gallery 12 month or so ago (Then I was known as Apple_UK). Well, after being jumped on in the poser forum for suggesting an alternitive way of producing gold, and beingg chastised by admin again, like last time I had a fit of pique and removed all my freestuff (We are sooooo characteristic).

I will be putting models into freestuff again (as well as in another site) but this time that will be the extent of my involvement with rendo. I wonder if the sensitivity to comments that are not complimentary is a feature of Rendo being based in America and its legal system?

o.O

ISTR you annoyed a lot of people by saying "pornographers don't deserve to have any human rights", rather than being critical of any particular images.  Not saying you weren't critical of any renders, just clarifying why a lot of people seemed to be upset with you.

As for critical remarks and Rendo's policy, unless the policy has changed since I was a staff member, non-complimentary remarks are allowed, provided they're not inflammatory as in a blanket statement of "that's crap".  Providing reasons - objective reasons, that is - as to why a piece is "crap" is the way to go, because you'd at least be able to justify your views in such a case.

I really don't know how the location of the site and the country's legal system would affect anything regarding non complimentary comments.  You should remember there's something enshrined in US law that we Brits don't have; the law of Freedom of Speech.  That said, this being a private site, can set whatever rules it likes regarding who says what, when and how. 

BTW, I won a bet with myself regarding the identity of "luckybears".  :) 

I will say this, and please believe me, this is not a personal attack but a genuine view regarding some of your posts in Freestuff...  You seem to have a sense of entitlement, as if your Freebies should bring some acclaim, reward, kudos and so forth.  That, may I respectfully suggest, is not the reason - or should not be the reason - for giving things away.  I'm very far from being Christian but there's something I believe they say about being better to give than receive, or giving without wish or hope of reward.  That, I'd suggest is why you should give stuff.  From generosity and the goodness of your heart. 

Hello, Sam.

First, Love the Daleks. I take it you have seen the latest Dr Who..Best so far I think. Not sure how they failed to remember at the end of part one. I think I must have missed something.

Second. You might be right about the 'sense of entitlement' thing. I will look closely at that. Ty for for pointing it out.

Third, I am thinking that Americans are a bit too sensitive about honest coments they do not like

Best wishes :)

OMG Apple...yanno, I knew it was you. I see you have the same...idiosyncracies shall we say. I wish you wouldn't pull your freestuff now for the lack of downloads just like I wished you wouldn't when you were Apple_UK. But, do as you please I suppose....

Oh, and BTW, there are lots of people here besides Americans. FWIW, I'm American and yet have never made any "crap" porno pics that you speak so unhighly of...lol. Besides, it's not just Americans that make crap just like it's not British, or any other nationality represented on the site. There's an equal playing field between everyone here.

Luaurie,

You are the honest God American that I would stand should to shoulder with.

I don't think so. I'm an American and My friends, family, and I are all thick-skinned abraisive dicks, but that could be a case of "Birds of a feather flocking togeather"... lol
