Mature Audiences Policy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You may not use PayPal in the purchase or sale of, or receipt of donations for, any obscene or sexually oriented goods or services. In determining what goods or services are prohibited under the Mature Audiences Policy, PayPal will consider some or all of the following factors: Whether the work depicts or describes, in a patently offensive way, sexual conduct. Representations or descriptions of intercourse, masturbation, excretory functions, or lewd exhibition of the genitals. Dominant theme of the material or website. Literary, artistic, political, or scientific value. Safety and protection of its customers, both buyers and sellers. Medical or educational usage of the product or service. Any sexually oriented goods or services involving minors, or made to appear to involve minors, will automatically be treated as violations of the Mature Audiences Policy. PayPal will not include sexual preferences or viewpoints as a factor in determining what goods or services are prohibited under the Mature Audiences Policy. ... You and PayPal agree that the damages that PayPal will sustain as a result of the behavior outlined above will be substantial, including (without limitation) fines and other related expenses from its payment processors and service providers, but may be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain. In the event that you engage in such activities, then PayPal may fine you $500.00 USD and/or PayPal may take legal action against you to recover losses that are in excess of the amount fined. You acknowledge and agree that $500.00 USD is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPals damages, considering all currently existing circumstances, including (without limitation) the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to PayPal that reasonably could be anticipated and the anticipation that proof of actual damages may be impractical or extremely difficult. You agree that PayPal is entitled to deduct such fines directly from any existing balance in the offending account, or any other PayPal account owned by you.

RE: 96 Hades Bless, I'll endorse them too... Diane was a pleasure to deal with on the phone when I had lost all my fils.

The minimize and restore trick does not work. Been there, done that many times. System mechanic is a program you can pick up at any Wal-mart for about $30. It comes with a variety of system tools as well as a tool to defrag Memory without rebooting.

The items themselves if not in compliance, will be moved into a holding area. It should be no problem to order an account History Burn.

Blasted webpage takes forever to load ever since the site redesign...

Crescent:
"Scream Design is a sister company to DAZ (or maybe niece). Anyhoo, it's a related company that is involved with end graphics and web design.

What link(s) are you clicking on to see their site? When I clicked on the Software: DAZ|Studio, I got the right page.

Thanks,

Cres"

Way Cool! ....But it didn't help. I still get ScreamDesigns.

Got any more cool tricks? "

Keyze

Try refreshing your cache.

Several of the Daz pages were erroneously redirected to Scream design which is DAZ's web design company.

No one has been hijacked.

Let me go digging for the Forum posting on this

::sighs:: Conspiracy theories and inanity aside... Read Entry # 67... I firmly believe this is the reason behind it.

Because, since no one wishes to see the difference in teh other other, I'll repost here...

Quote by Mehndi of PP
"When we first hooked up with Paypal, we had high hopes of qualifying for some of their programs that would have given us a good deal of very much needed free advertising and publicity, but because we had any nudity at all on our site, we were rejected, and put in the category of businesses Paypal was ashamed of. To qualify for those free services we would have to make, and enforce, a no nudity, no sexuality rule on our site. This is how strongly paypal feels on this subject matter."

I believe this is the reasoning.

Not Ashcroft, Visa or anything else... BTW - This quote is from back in Feb' 04 when a Snuff image was found on PPs site.

Again I don't think politics has anything to do with it. Poser Pros and Renderosity are both in Tennessee and fall under the same laws and such.

No I don't think it is politics. I think it is greed and free advertising... See above post.

This might help understand why...

Though I don't have to agree with they way they are going about it.

I take it Renderosity wants to take advantage of these programs.

"Since Renderosity seems hellbent on closing down my store I'd like to mention that all of my adult products will continue to be selling at both Poser Pros and Renderotica. Thanks for the mention Natolii :)" Considering I won't be able to purchase some of your items until the 19th... Good thing I prefer to purchase from PP as a rule and even better that you are hosted there. Renderosity's actions are to the extreme. As I stated, Poser Pros also accepts Paypal and also has guidelines in regards to nudity and porn. Yes, they do not allow certain things however, alot of the items here are also either considered art elsewhere or are parts of the lifestyles of certain segments of our population. I think this is an ill-thoughtout, knee-jerk plan. "Family-Friendly" my arse... I am more comfortable browsing over at Poser Pros with my 9 yr old anyway. WHAT does that tell you?

I wonder what Reonderosity Exclusive merchants will do.

The Merchants effected are not without options. Poserpros does accept some of the items that do appear to be affected here and they also work with Paypal. Richabri is a merchant there as well. Check out the restrictions on other sites and see what can be done. As Diane herself said, R'otica does not accept Paypal but does allow for Check and CC payments. Diane has been very gracious in dealing with customer service issues as well. I have dealt with her both through e-mail and over the phone. R'otica itself is a free-site unless you want to get into the Premiere picture galleries. You still need to sign-up for a membership through to protect them.

Actually Sean, Pimping and Spamming for to get comments is actively looking for votes as well.
