Hmm... I guess there must be a lot of stuff going on that I'm either not seeing, or just not picking up on... the way this whole post started out is way different than what it's going on about now... "If you want to defend your rights and show that a minority elite group can't rule what is good and bad for the Markett place please post your concerns and comments at the merchants forum, under Vette's message. If you don't take care of this now, your stuff could be removed or rejected in the future. So common here and defend your rights to sell." Which is why I kept watching this post to begin with... I think anyone should be allowed to sell whatever they want, no matter how crappy it is in anyone else's oppinion, we (at least here in the US) do live in a capitalist society... true, quality should be a concern, but if someone wants to sell something, and someone else wants to buy it, then that's their right to do so... so the initial post bothered me to a degree... but then when the discussion about this new "guild/group/whatever" came up, I thought (and still do) that it was a good idea... in a way it seems to me, a garauntee that the product you're about to buy, or(from what I've gathered) about to download for free is worth your time and money... I have to say that I haven't bought anything that I haven't been pleased with from any poser-related store/site... but then I consider myself a pretty conscientious (is that spelled right) buyer... I try to look for gallery images, or posts that show what the product is/will do before I buy it... but if there is a way of knowing right away, via some sort of "Stamp of Approval" that the quality I expect is there, then it saves me the time and effort... maybe I'm reading this whole thing wrong, and I'm way off base, but this whole thing seems to be a voluntary procedure... if you want to have your product "tested" you can, and you don't have to if you don't want to, but if you do, and it is approved, then people will have a little assurance that they'll probably be pleased with their buy... and on the flip side, if you submit it, and it isn't approved, there's nothing to stop you from still selling, or giving away your product, just don't tell anyone you submitted it, no one but the "guild" members would know, and true they COULD run out and tell everyone "Oh that's no good... it didn't pass our tests" but that will do nothing but discredit their own efforts, and fewer people would submit, thus ruining their worth... so it would seem silly, to ME anyway, that they would do that... I guess I don't understand why so many people seem to have gotten hot under the collar about this... but like I said, there is probably a lot of stuff going on that I'm just not aware of, there usually is in situations like this... I truly am open to any comments, particularly those who think that this isn't a good idea, as to why it isn't, I guess I'm just not seeing the downside to it...
