Thank YOU for the slap during my short absence! Especially only after a couple of days that you told me in public how welcome my posts are around this forum.. It's just so sad to find out that Renderosity is adopting & reminishing the Willow days... :o( Autarchy, back and forth talk, just cleaning up the wheat from its hard cover.. and old members are just that I guess.. a hard cover that needs to be broken, squeezed, demolished and discarded, God knows for which utter plan a mind has concieved, especially after all the trouble and debates administration went through to make this place the most commercial oriented in Poser Land! :o( You didn't listen to us back then, why should you listen now? But I refuse to allow you to put a "merchant" tag on me as well, as I'm no sort of a cattle! :o( You got in the trouble to put us on a vote whether we should rename a product or not, but we have NO word on deciding where we should post.. even if we are avoiding links! This back and forth policy just reminds me of a cat chasing its tail! People tend soo easily to forget the past, subside and put in ghettos those we stood by them when things were hard.. Let's face it, others may not dare say so but I will- it's the best & oldest who've survived successfully in becoming merchants around this place since Jack Krammer brought the plague of commercialism over us (also WITHOUT asking but with YOUR full blessings)! It's also those whom you are disregarding and bypassing as non welcome here anymore that have kept the Poser forum alive and made Renderosity what it is today! Why do I get the feeling that this dog bites the hands that fed him for so long? Why do I get the feeling that this recent TOS update was cut and tailored specifically for PWFW? Am I too suspicious or paranoid? Well.. maybe! I'm sorry guys, but what I do is about Poser.. not a store or any merchant or commercial thingie! If you want to add a price tag on it, be my guest.. a dime for an item with texture pak included, some times ON SALE too.. just for a few pennies! What a merchant INDEED!!!! How dared we to turn subscription to cover our bandwidth cost.. guilty indeed! It was all available for free and it would have stayed so up to now if our bandwith hadn't been constantly abused so badly, but you're too well aware of that so what's the point? You still put a tag on us! You consider subscription sites commercial BUT.. you forgto that I've NEVER considered myself a merchant.. I was forced to follow the flow in order to survive and have a place to put up my work - as YOU were the ones who set the new guidlines but seem to conveniently forget - not myself.. however, don't you ever dare to call me a "merchant"! Bottom line, since I'm no longer allowed to post where I belong - among the people I know and got to know over the past years, but just have to be ostrasized as a parasite at some other forum that means absolutely NOTHING to me... goodbye and goodluck as you won't hear from me again - since obviously this is what you had in mind once composing that! How many subs site are we are all around really? Five, ten? How many merchants? around 500 I think! Gee.. we subs DO take lots of precious space in this forum indeed! VL grin Don't worry, you can ban me freely for my big mouth if you wish as I'll do you the favour to take down the PWFW store items too..Where I'm not welcome, none of my work is either! As we say in Greece - once you get the feeling that what you say goes in one ear and out the other (and I'm almost certain THIS is the case here, so I'm just wasting my breath) it's time to move on... Those who care to keep updated on my work know where to find me.. but definately NOT in that competition oriented lions arena you've created and taged it "Merchants Forum"! Rena
