I'm sorry hope. I just can't agree with this policy. I think it's not only foolhardy, but detrimental to the site. It's one thing to tell ppl what to do with their commercial items because you have control there. It's totally another to tell people what to do with their freely-given gifts. Bad form. Linking to other sites within the freestuff area is already not allowed. Why not leave it at just that? Please believe me when I tell you this is NOT going to help the site. It's not.

I agree with Laurie on this, renderosity just crawls further down the rabbit hole, the decline in freestuff uploads is - SURPRISE, linked directly to the asinine rules that keep getting piled up. Most companies, recognise there is an issue when people start closing their accounts, site traffic falls, and ok, that's a problem that renderosity have refused to address. But the decline in freestuff, that is truly telling of the state of the site. I removed well over 200 items from freestuff because of this same line of thinking, I have been providing freestuff items for over a decade here at renderosity, and now, there will be no more because the site is being forced into decline by stupid and petty rules.
