I know what this "1000 visitors" mean. It means 1000 page loads.
The counter on my site shows everyday about 2000-3000 page loads, but only 200-300 unique visitors at average.

I don't know if there is such a saying in english, but in russian we say "you see life through pink glasses" meaning, that everything seems so easy to you, and you haven't seen the real life.
If I understood you correctly - you want paysites to make payfiles free after some time. OK, I can imagine, that small sites would do this way. But do you really think that some Peggy or TSR will do this way too? I am sure, that all of the paysites owners would say "I don't care".

Oh, I just seen her guestbook ))
I think she died, because there are a lot of comments there

I could enter her guestbook after 10 minutes since I've got banned from there.
I've got an idea, how about I'll write her an ass-licking nice comment and leave a link to my homepage, and on my homepage I will write everything I think about her shitty site?  

I just hate stupid people. And what I hate the most is when you are telling them that they are wrong - they start yelling at you, calling you all the bad words they know etc. it makes them even more stupid :/

she erased my message from the guestbook too
so sad, that she can't even face the true.

I think I've seen the similar pink nightie somewhere..
I remember some site, also pay, there was a collection of pink underwear and nighties.. but I can't remember the name of it. Damn, there are really a LOT of paysites!
The files are not so bad, but they are not worth paying also.  :?

I don't know, maybe you already know about this one.
The clothes there are really average. I mean I can't find ANYTHING that I might want to pay for.
1,5$ per item.. is she crazy?

I think I'm going to make similar dresses for my site for free to kick her ass.

It doesn't look like server problems they had lately.
It looks like "if you don't want my pay files, then you won't get anything from me". But Elau is a grownup and I hope she won't act like a little girl.  I really hope she has some serious reason to close her site.
But if it is because of the discussion of pay files, then the big disrespect goes to Elau  :?

I haven't read all the thread, but I think Zantanna acts very strange . In my mind this kind of behavior is not very smart.
Concerning Elau - I really like her forum There are so many funny people there Especially in "your works" section If you're uploading a total crap, they are still saying that it is wonderful and that they are going to download it right now, but the download counter is still showing zero :lol: And some people upload wrong files, but no one will tell them, that the file is not showing up in the game  
About Elau's donation files I can only say, that I don't think that they are worth paying. No, I don't say, that they are crappy or something, but they are really average.

The more you know people - the more you like animals. I can say the same about myself.

So what do you want to say with this topic? Is it a cry for help?
This topic is pointless. You think that you're a Batman and you should defend poor paysite owners? Oh god, somebody, call the doctor :lol:

The mesh is the same, I guess. But I haven't found any notes where carlaniven says that it is her mesh. But any credits neither.

The main reason for people to act this way is their own stupidity.
They are angry because they were not smart enough to find the place where they can get paystuff for free. They think that if they paid money for some crappy stuff, it won't be fair for others to be smarter and download for free.  

Of course there might be some people, that follow every rule, they know :lol: Like no beer & cigarettes till 18, no sex before marriage  :shock:  :lol: I suppose that such people pay every time they see that something has a price without thinking if it is right or wrong to ask money for virtual stuff.

Wow, there are so many opinions about who Peggy is She is a housewife with kids, young woman, teenage girl (I wish I could make such websites and meshes when I was 12) The most funny thing is that people who say that - know for sure. so there must be at least 3 different Peggys?   :lol:
