all ive read in this entire thread is the first few posts, so mayhap there have been some drastic changes halfway through, or even a resolution. but i have to put my .02 cents in. stefy, you STILL havent learned, have you? still up to your bullying, strong-arm tactics, huh? im not going to dredge up all the bullshit youve put people through here in the past, nor am i going to get into this argument because i just dont give a shit. i really dont. im just pointing out the monumental hypocrisy here, where you pull your store items for attention, then promise your costomers youll take back all of your bullshit licenses added after point of sale like the one requiring that buyers credit you in any image using your textures. where you also promise you will stop your tactic of cross-checking gallery renders against your buyers list and then harassing the person through threatening and insulting IMs and emails. yet here you are again. big suprise. as for your little buyer's list-checking gestapo bullshit - do you have any idea how many times i surf through the galleries and see my store items in renders by people who i am certain are not on my buyer's list? more than i can count. and what do i do? do i message them something like: 'you are nasty warez kid and liar. buy you my texture within 24 hours or you will be banned from renderosity and taken will be legal action on you'? no. i comment on the image, and appreciate the fact that someone is giving me free advertising. i do not condone warez, but i do tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. many people have renderosity merchandise bought for them as a gift, or use a separate account for purchases, or have relatives/friends who create accounts for the sole purpose of making a gift purchase. with your bullying tactics and hypocritical BS youre not fighting warez at all, all youre doing is displaying your true colours to your rapidly diminishing base of legitimate customers - and widening the gap between merchants and rosity members by casting us as tyrannical, profiteering whiners. with love from canada, -gabriel
