Guest ThatOne Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Just thought I'd drop my two cents. Oh, and wall of text warning for those of you who care: Â Firstly, I don't know what the outfits look like, and frankly I don't care. I only know what was posted here - there is a modder who retextured some outfits and put them up for currency on a site, without any concrete proof he has the original author's permission to do so, nor any other agreement that would make such a sale legitimate. When he heard someone wanted it for free, he took it off the network. Â Also, as posted on the first page, the modder refuses to give the password of the archive, even if you downloaded it from the link. Â If any of that is false, then please just ignore the rest of this post. This is not a flaming post, and I will be happy to admit I am wrong if that is the case. This is based only on what I know, which is posted above. Â Now, before I get into the legal part of it, I want to ask how does it help him - even in the slightest - that others, from countries which he might never visit, and who he will never meet in his life, will have a virtual outfit or not. Â Next, I want to ask how does it help him - in any way whatsoever - to take the files down; if they stay up, and someone here downloads them and shares them, then at least he BOUGHT it. He'll have more of a profit if he just keeps it up there. Â And I would like to move on to the question: when in history didn't people want free stuff? It can be as little as a loaf of bread for the poor or as big as a new house for those a bit better off financially, but the concept remains the same: People. Want. Free. Stuff. Getting angry and throwing a fit because someone posted a forum thread about it is just childish. Â Not only that, but also the fact that someone out there wants it enough to post a thread about it just means that he did a good job. He should be proud, not angry, even if he decides to take the files down. Â And, to finish this post, I'd like to take a look at the legal part: one is NOT allowed to use other's works, even if he edited them himself, in any way or form without express permission from the original author for *COMMERCIAL* purposes. That also includes virtual currency. Â If he did that, then he is nothing more than a thief. A skilled thief, perhaps, but a thief nonetheless and his share should be with all the others - getting hit on the head with a heavy BANHAMMER. Â A community cannot afford to tolerate any thief that throws a good outfit. Why? Because pretty soon all the legal\sharing part in readmes would be naught but ash. Is that the kind of internet you want? I know I certainly don't want to know anything I work on is just going to be stolen, modified slightly and published under another author's name OR to fill his virtual pockets. Â If I were to steal another modder's works, let's say the so-very-famous "Ravenous Elegance" by Sinblood, and retexture it and sell it without his permission to do so - will that be alright? Hell, no!!!! Â As for showing respect: perhaps for his skill, but certainly not for his methods (not giving the password? please). Â Oh, and one very last thing: by necroing this thread and giving these reasons you reduce the chances anyone here will ever consider purchasing his outfits and NOT sharing them. If you wouldn't have necro'd it, chances are he would have put the outfits back up in a while after he cooled down. I doubt it will happen now. Â Of course, time will only tell what will happen - what might have been is something none of us will ever know. Â -ThatOne

Leo77 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Sorry to necro an old thread' date=' but, I think it may be important to let everyone here know, the mod maker has a DIRECT link to THIS topic, and has (with good reason) gotten mad and taken his mod completely off the site. so even those with the gold cannot legitimatly get it. Please, beggers, dont mess it up for everyone else by urging the community to help "steal" from a site that has just barely begun to accept english speaking people. Show some respect, even if it was just edited, its still a lot of outfits and a lot of work. [/quote'] Â I'm getting really sick of people lately. I wouldn't call anyone around here a "begger" and surely not in context with this topic. People on that forum are acting like big asses and there's no justification for that i can see. Not only have they full acces to our (western) modding sites and mods, no, they even "sell" them on their forum although they didnt even move a finger for the creation of that mod. And these people want from every single one of us who could like their mods their "fee". Â To sum it up, we give them for free anything they want, but when we want something then we must pay. And when we're dumb enough, we can even pay them for our own stuff. Â In RL, i call these people bastards, assholes and i truly resent this sort of people.

Regardless of talent, if he's going to throw tantrums he can go straight to hell along with all the other two-bit idiots who think they have the right to treat players like garbage over mods for a game they do not own (and technically all mods remain the property of Bethesda Softworks). Â We have plenty of talented modders who give out their work in good faith for the enjoyment of all. Quite frankly we don't need toads like this, their attitude is disgusting. Â Edit: By the way.. I don't think there was ever a link to his work in this topic, just people asking about it. Is this person seriously throwing a wobbler over people SHOWING INTEREST? Primadonna much? Screw him and the horse he rode in on! Sorry but attitudes like this make me furious.
Sizustar Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 I hope this modder doesn't ruin or skew all of your opinion on Asian(Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese, HK, etc) modders. His attitude and action are a minority, some modder don't release their work, because they are not happy with it currently, and beleive they can make it better, and will usually release a "beta" when they see a demand for it, but after completing it, will always share it on Shy, Mediafire or Tesnexus.

Â the only one stealing is the guy posting shit he didn't make for stupid amounts of fake money. pardon me if i don't respect cry babies who can't take criticism of stupid and greedy actions. the fact that the dick doesn't include the password makes it even more insulting, 1000gold isn't enough? no now we also need him to grant us the password for his archive too? he can go fuck himself.

[/quote'] Â nah, i take the actions of people on a case by case basis, though i think any site that can lock a user out like that isn't that great of a site IMO. it isn't like moders with the same attitude don't exist in the west of course there aren't a lot of sites in the west that could give people the stranglehold they have on some eastern sites. i suppose you could do the same thing with other types of bbs software, never seen it though.

Jerbsinator Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Ya I don't know what the point would be of making a nice mod only to show pics of it and gloat. Isn't the point of modding to share it with others? It's like art, you don't paint just so you can hide it in your room to look at. You share it with the world. It's no fun making something great and hiding it away for yourself. Â Sure some people might try or even succeed at stealing it but most of the time modders seems to respect each other and usually ask for permission to use stuff. People that don't will get whats coming to them eventually.
leddis3 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 To me this isn't about modders of any nationality, it's about moderteam and while not everybody at moderteam may be a jerk, the fact remains they encourage this kind of self-entitled nonsense. The whole idea of theme park money for mods is ridiculous to begin with, then we have people like this charging absurd amounts of it. Â And you know, I personally don't care about editing other people's work. Yes, permission should be asked ideally but if you add your own unique spin to it that's nice too. The problem is with this person not only taking edits, but charging for them then having the audacity to throw tantrums and claim "mine mine mine!". As others have said, the people who take mods from people who freely distribute them, edit them then charge fake money for them are nothing but thieves and lowlifes.

Sizustar Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 I think we've gotten rather off topic, and everyone has their own opinion on what is the "correct" attitude for sharing mods. Â And no one is correct. As the origional mod is no longer available, Any more discussion on who is more "right" will just cause bad feeling among everyone, and we should just drop this topic or a mod can lock it.

leddis3 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Oh shut up saddad. Nobody is talking about mktsang or wolfzq. We're talking about this particular self-entitled stuck up asshole and his stupid attitude. Â Also, the only thing virtual currency does is encourage spam. Discussion my ass. All it does is artificially pad the post count of a forum with complete useless drivel. Some western sites have a variation on this two, such as f3underground requiring 30 posts before downloading anything. It is nothing but a cheap and cynical ploy to make a forum look more active than it really is. Â And yes, if this modder is taking other people's work, editing them then CHARGING for them (virtual currency or not) then he is a thief. End of story.

leddis3 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Oh shut up saddad. Nobody is talking about mktsang or wolfzq. We're talking about this particular self-entitled stuck up asshole and his stupid attitude.  Also' date=' the only thing virtual currency does is encourage spam. Discussion my ass. All it does is artificially pad the post count of a forum with complete useless drivel. Some western sites have a variation on this two, such as f3underground requiring 30 posts before downloading anything.

I know for a fact that edits of mods made by others turn up on moderteam for ridiculous "prices" all the time. Hell, barely a week after Nightwynd released her armours here, edits of it were being sold on moderteam!  As I've said. Not everybody on moderteam is despicable, but their general attitude there is reprehensible. They are xenophobic, hostile and harbour thieves. Defend this modder all you like, it doesn't change that his attitude is rotten and that, frankly, we don't need him. He can take his mods and shove it.

HanPL Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Hmm topic started with someone asking for package and now changed into flame and arguing war... If you guys want to talk about moderteam gold policy or something else,make new topic in general. Because like bluewr for now this is one big offtopic now. Â
Sizustar Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Here's the topic in General. http://www.loverslab.com/showthread.php?tid=1972 Â If you wish to discuss, argue, vent, etc. You're welcome to use it.
gregathit Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 Bottom line on this discussion is it is illegal to charge any sort of money (virtual or real) for a mod. Whether or not the work is original or a retexture makes ABSOLUTELY no difference!!!! Only Bethesda can charge or Ok others to charge for content as they own all the copyrights. As he clearly does not have Bethesda's permission to charge virtual money then any further arguments are VOID!!!!! Â Now on the other topic of password protecting and all that........as long as he has permission to use other modders works (retextured stuff) then he can distribute it to whom he pleases (provided he doesn't Charge for it). Â My personal opinion is that people who make others jump through hoops to get access to their mods are just plain immature glory hounds. However I am adult enough to recognize that my opinion is only meaningful to one person.......ME!!!
SkyeG Posted February 21, 2012 Author Posted February 21, 2012 No one ever posted one, as you can see it just turned into a flame war. Topic kinda got lost from there
