It shouldn't surprise me at this point, really. WTF is the matter with these sick, twisted people? Are they acquainted with any form of morality? They're even making enemies at N99 from the relflex forum drama. When those paysite enthusiasts start questioning, you know something is going on.
I suspect I know who the ill FA is, sad all the way around.
I'm stunned that Windkeeper finally woke up. Perhaps she has enough morality to walk away from the money. I certainly hope so.

Want to bash content from free sites?
Don't.
Sure, there's some stuff for free out there that is craptastic. However, just like you don't tell your Aunt Helen how awful the sweater she knitted you is, we don't talk smack about free creations.
What's the difference? Money hadn't changed hands. When you pay for something, you have an expctation of quality. When someone gives you something, you have no expectations.
We may not personally like every free item, but we admire anyone who creates and is happy to give the product of their hobby to fellow fans.
Take your complaints elsewhere.
(This point has been made within other parts of the FAQ, but since it came up AGAIN, we decided to make a separate paragraph for it. See what you've driven us to?)
http://phorum.mustnotbenamed.com/index.php/topic,1104.0.htmlPescado may not care but it's in the FAQ. The whole thing was blown out of proportion, but it can't be surprising that we'd take Nouk's side in all of this. I don't like what happened at GOS. I honestly didn't notice Nouk's first comment, I doubt anyone would have noticed if steerpike didn't toss in her little dig. |

Who could have seen this coming: a joint project between Rohina and Calalily that leads to acrimony?  It's almost like it was carefully designed for moar fight...  hmmmm... |

Well Pes pulled it off again. I guess he is more awesome than us. I haven't got a single reason to ever go back to the original insim.
I've been watching this drama unfold and I've stayed out of it since I never was a real active member of insim. My hat's off to all the dedicated admins and mods who have worked so hard.

Okay, it has become clear that we're at a point where we may need to burn the village in order to save the village. Since there is no practical way to stop the 12s from swarming and killing the server, the obvious solution at this point is to intentionally spike the DB, rendering the site inoperable. Naturally, this will most likely permanently damage WaltZone and remove the option for people to stay there. There is no guarantee this will result in the successful retrieval of the files even if it is undertaken. What say you?
I don't think I can support this. I may be misunderstanding you, but it sounds like deliberate sabotage. It doesn't seem right to take all choice away from those who might inexplicably want to stay. I think if the site becomes accessible again, people will quickly overload it downloading everything they can anyway. More creators will delete their things. WaltZone will never recover anyway. Better to let people scatter and rebuild where they wish. Anything of importance is on somebody's hard drive already. |

Alright, here's my apology then. This is way more serious to some of us than others, and I'll take it at that. I'm sorry for "stomping" on your threads, and for not sitting here all day and reading 81 pages of forums. If that makes me lazy, selfish, and immature, then so be it. I have other things to do today. So stop trashing me, and I'lll try to keep up. Okay?
P.S. - If you guys could stop trashing me for like five seconds, I could actually post this.
Wow. Nice non-apology, you selfish, whiny, entitled, lazy brat. If you don't want to do the work, you don't get to demand someone else do it for you and then screech when people balk. Uhm, I wasn't being demanding. And I backed down because obviously I was disrespecting some people because this is a big deal to them. If you can't accept my apology, you'll get over it. No that's real smart! Have you been watching Walt videos? Get over it? If you had spent 5 minute learning about this disaster, you'd know better than to say that. I don't often bash idiots, but you're pretty exceptional. |

Insim was a disaster trying to find items. Delphy's customizations over at MTS2 make everything so easy, it's the only V-Bulletin site that works.
I don't care what format the forum is in, I never really participated much, but please, I'm begging here, make the damn colors different.
I think that Quorneater is right. Small no or low-cost sites download sites that are linked from a central forum would make everything more resistant to catastrophe and greatly diminish the cost involved.

I have a quick question, and I realize that it may not be easily resolved because in terms of creations to the Insim family, I have contributed but one item, and the creations of more prolific creators do, of course, come first. How do I remove said puny little download? (I backed it up a long time ago.) Granted, it would probably fetch Walt about .001 cent, but ...
And if I asked an obvious question, I humbly await my macro-punishment.
Well at insim, you have to go into each download and delete the attachments, pictures and text manually. You can't delete the post, but you can leave it as an empty shell. It probably works the same at insim adult. |

Why don't you le tsome of us that actually call the place home like I have for over 3 years try and get some things done before you all start sharking it to death? I'm sympathetic to all of your concerns about archiving creations but we as staff have been left in a shitstorm. All of this is making things difficult way beyond what it has to be.
I am sympathetic to the Admins and Mods who got blindsided by all of this. I really could not wait to see if my things were going to be put up for sale, so I yanked them. Insim is in its death throes. You can't really want to be a part of it anymore, can you? Knowing what K & E did? What Walt intends to do? |

I don't think it will be up for long anyway. Just deleting those 2 threads took a lot of crapping out.
I also think that most of the good creations have already been backed up somewhere. Pes will get everything, I'd bet on it.
