"it was released with timing that puts it intentionally in direct competition with a new release ... therefore creating a situation of unfair competition with that product.

What a joke ! Considering a somewhat simplistic freebie put together in a few hours as a menace for the sales of a very detailed work from well respected artist !

I couldn't refuse the request (are we brothers, lovers or was it just a Smith & Wesson .44 ?). Enough said, beware, for another Darth J freebie is there :

http://www.sharecg.com/v/46046/browse/Poser/Shotgun-Shack.?

Above is a new render about the subject.

The idea is to keep this thread running with further freebies. Don't fear to post your comments, compared to Darth J I am really a nice guy.

Latest news :

After his titles and his freebies now Darth J himself has been removed from the Other Site's forums. For 3 months no less.

Really awesome stuff, thank you for sharing this!

o.k., give our thanks to darth and I hope the other site is not going to suffer commercially in the current economic climate.

As mentioned before I doubt one of Darth J's rather simple freebies could harm the sales of an popular vendor.

This is the thread that started the chain of events leading to Darth J's eviction :

http://forum.daz3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=153185&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=20

A bit tired of the nitpicking nature of the thread Darth J then decided to make his own model with "correct" doors to "take the wind out of the sails" for the nitpickers, model which you can still find on Sharecg, and posted a thread with a link on the Other Site. The ink wasn't even dry before that thread was evaporated by the local Powers That Be. With a stern warning to Darth J not to tell anyone what just happened. Darth J*  did* slightly mention the subject when posting about moving to here. And got rewarded with 3 months eviction for doing so.

And so he ended up at my place, the forumless Dark Side Lord.

Been there, done that...hung the plaque on the wall and left.....lol

oops, sorry! thought it was the "other" other site.  they can be a bit tetchy at daz AFAIK.

O K.....first off before I lock this thread or Trash it outright as it's verging on flaming another site, why doesn't Darth J post their own freebies here.

If they are banned from here, the only reason I can think of why they wouldn't, this[2nd party posting of their items] can't happen. If they weren't RendoBanned why not just join. A complete search as deep as I as a Mod can go reveals no trace of them currently here.

Heck...I'm gonna lock it now till I get a Site mail from jgodeau.. ...
