If she really had a "black hat" she wouldn't be bragging about it, it would be done.
Now, there is nothing illegal with what is happening here, some people may object to it on moral grounds but thats about it.
What she is threatening, suggesting, whatever is illegal, with jail time as a penalty.
Who's the criminal then???
Wish the Drama Queen could try life in a Malaysian jail, then she really might have something to sook about.

After reading that Dramafest, all I can say is that MTS2 is turning into a paysite friendly police state.

I think Lyric is mental, and needs to go work for the RIAA as they are the only ones who could appreciate a rabid fanatic like Lyric.

I can't stand it when people exploit a fanbase for profit. I make some pretty nice skins, but I'd never charge for them - I want as many people to have my stuff as possible, cause then my ego gets all warm and fuzzy.

Pes can run this site for something like $50 (a figure I heard him mention) with unlimited bandwidth, and no real lag time or any other problem.

This points out that bandwidth is never really an issue, if you look hard enough.

I would prefer that paysites be honest - I'm charging for this cause it's what I do for a living. I bet they don't pay tax on their "income".

Hey, life's tough, I scrape by as do most others in this world, no one gets a free ride, and maybe more people would respect those that do exploit the fanbase a little more if they were honest. (maybe not, who knows)

I stay away from some of the mmorpgs because of the selling stuff for real cash thing.

Think about it - for 4 hair updates and one gift people pay Peggy $10 US. While the EA content isn't always as pretty a stuff pack is better value in terms of objects per dollar. And yet it's okay for *everyone* to bag EA for profiteering. This is the company that *legally* is allowed to profiteer.

In that thread Maria V stated that she uses profits for software and computer upgrades to help her creations. We are paying for her to further her hobby. I would *love* for someone to help me to further my hobby of owning diamond jewellery - I'll even send you a really pretty picture of me wearing said jewellery as a "donation gift".

I guess what pisses me off about it all is the comeback "if you were a creator then you would know how it feels to have something stolen". Lets be honest, no real creator gives a flying fuck about the exchange. Every now and then the exchange spawns some real talent, they always go to a private site sooner or later. I've seen my stuff on the exchange without credit and thought - who cares? Its not like I will die if those people who are downloading that don't know its mine, I'm never going to be able to sleep at night again knowing that people are sharing *my* creations.

I personally applaud Nouk's way of accepting help for the cost of hosting her creations.  I think that should be the only way of getting money from a site - with a break down of costs and money received.

I promise Icky, I will put a warning up before I ever post a link to a site that crappy.

I contacted Pes, and I he gave me the details.

We're not stealing anything, we are mearly sharing.
Now that site is stealing. Stealing alphas without permission. Stealing FAQ's without permission.
What shits me the most is they are taking some ones alpha, using it virtually unchanged, and charging a stupid amount for it.
That's stealing.

I don't think there is any eye protection that can save you when you load that horror of a site.
BTW I guess that makes me a cunt, cause I lodged a complaint with paypal...
 :twisted: They do it all the time to file share sites, why should we do it back?
And frankly, if there is anything we can do to shut down this feral site I will be a happy little pirate!

I think it may be run by a guy. This is the reply I got to my email:

Thanks.  I was wondering why out of the hundrets of people who hit our site everyday and out of the many that subscribe every week, you didn't.  LOL...are you kidding me?

Don


I just wanna destroy them cause of their arrogance - and unlike certain awesome people, their arrogance is unwarranted.

Has anyone seen this site?
It reeks of a paysite-to-be-destroyed on so many levels.
To start with, this idiot wants $15.00 per month, or pay per file, and they are charging $1.50 each for a top and bottom. That's right you need to buy them individually. The preview images are all shot in the dark on some very unattractive models and it still doesn't make the clothes look any better.

If the fugly clothes aren't enough, they are also using other peoples creations as bases without credit.

Please respect the copyright. The content on this site is for your personal use in the game, nothing more. That means no modifying, no taking parts of my alphas or textures, no redistributing or taking credit for my work. If you have questions about this, please contact me.


Who would pay $15.00 per month for stuff that looks like crap, and is copied from other sites including Boutique Emile, and then uglified?
I would normally subsrcibe, download the site and then shove it in their face that its being shared, but I don't think anyone would even want this...
They even have a sale section where you can get really crappy crap for $4.00.

I wrote an email to let him know that I thought his site sucked. Feel free to join in and laugh at this crap site.
