ass is a well used, well coined word meaning "stupid person, or person acting stupidly or irresponsibly"
I stand by my use of that term.
yeah, the tit for tat name calling is fun...pointless...but sometimes fun.
Gerhard made a point of calling me and my comments funny.
I was just being funny in return.
------------------------------
I disagree with you Ruben, in this instance.
100 people is a good cross reference of online digital model activity.
And I think it does reflect a common attitude towards internet models.
I wouldn't call it an accurate scientific study, but a good reflection.
I stand by my idea that of 100 people, most (at least 90%) download a model because its free
and to add it to their "collection" like a paper model hoarder.
My own experiences with my own models... substantiate this
More than half a million free downloads, extensive download records and 10 years of forum feedback.
Very few downloaders have a serious intent to build within a short timeframe.
Some think they might want to build it in the future, and grab it now just in case.
If it was a paid for model, then only one or two would buy it in support of the designer.
And another one or two would buy it to build it (now or later).
But the rest would pass, because its not free.
I'll make that bet with any type of (digital) model from any designer.
I'm the same way as Gerhard in that I love to see the response and feedback.
I want to see my models built.
And if praise is due, I love to hear it.
I often resort to asking for feedback and demanding to see builds,
but only in a positive way, with fun and community support in mind.
To assume that I am that important to demand you "build my model or else!",
would make me a complete ass*...I prefer being incomplete.
*LOL Trust me...the irony of that term isn't lost on me!
