wow...you're an ass.
Name calling will only get you so far.
I don't know what website you have visited but its obviously not mine.
I have no clue what the " immense spread of colorful commercial links" is?
Did you stumble onto a Porn site by "accident"?
I think you are implying that I get paid by others to advertise on my website?
Once again...you have obviously visited someone elses website.
There are no paid ads...no ads at all..on my website.
Other than a couple of links to my other website and online store.
Oh, and an unsponsored link to ecardmodels.com because I support others!
Curious.
I never brought up legal grounds...I just stated my own opinion
...any info you collect on a customer or downloader of your models, you should NOT share
...since it is the right thing to do within this community.
Otherwise, its my opinion, you should not be part of this community.
Your last paragraph is somewhat difficult to understand.
Someone offered to sell your models for you? and only offered you 10% of sales?
And you're pissed off at everyone else for that?
How is this related to me and what I said about "Internet users collecting models for free and not because they wish to build"?
You apparently don't accept that the majority of paper model downloaders have a collection of files and models that they will never build.
Or you just don't like this?
Personally, I have a small collection of maybe (I'm guessing) 10,000 found internet kits.
Since my own designs keep me busy enough, I have no time to build others models,
but even if I wanted to, how do you think I could ever consider building so many kits?
So why have I downloaded so many?
Because, Gerhard Softspace, they are free!!
[name calling rebuttal]
And yes, many many builders never complete models.
You'd find out these things if just plainly asked, instead of bitching and handing out personal info on people.
Unfinished builds include those that never actually get started, along with those that try and fail, get frustrated and throw away the model, or switch to another model.
Only thing I agree on is that a designer should not knowingly release a kit with errors or without proper testbuilding.
And why a distributor would suggest this to you is beyond me.
Every distributor I know wants to sell the best product to guaranty repeat business.
Yours is the "disgusting mentality" for assuming you are deserved something more than others.
