I'm really blown away by this. I've only been hanging around the Poser community a very short time and really had the impression that, for the most part, all of the members here were supportive and respectful of one another. While I'm sure that in most instances this really is true, I can't get over the fact that although I'm sure that the unenforcable eula is often violated, this freestuff contributor gets slammed for it. Especially post 37. At least have the courtesy to not throw it in his face. If you're gonna abuse something someone has freely contributed, then at least do it quietly. You should be listening to people like Blackhearted... having second thoughts about providing stuff simply for the fun of providing it. Many have in essence said "I'll take whatever you're offering and if you don't like what I do with it, tough s**t." What the hell is that? To those who say they will pass something by because they don't wish to conform to the provider's requests, I can respect that. To those who avail themselves of the opportunity to d/l something and disregard the creator's request, well, really nothing can be done about it, it probably happens all the time and that doesn't make it right. But to those who feel that it becomes their own property and proudly proclaim they have the right to use it as they wish remember the other side of the coin: contributors have the right to stop contributing. I'm sure the pillar guy will. And that's sad.
