Well said Tomsk, I for one joined this group to share what I have. I have been collecting items for over 15 years. I have used all types of sources to obtain my items such as websites, torrents, UseNet and even purchased items when I can. My health and a few other obligations keep me from sharing as often as I would like. I am a disabled Marine living on a disability check and trying to raise a family. I normally keep quiet about issues on sites but this one hit home so I'm adding my two cents worth on it, so everyone can take it as just that my thoughts. The reason a lot of us come to sites like this one is so we can get items we can not afford to buy and to help others that may be in the same boat, that is why sites like these are around. Like Tomsk said it is truly each individuals choice on whether to share or not. I personally have no problems with people sharing what I post here or on other sites. We are all supposed to be trying to help each other. Who cares if an item is posted on one or 300 sites? The only reason we should complain is if someone uses artwork we personally create for things like the contests without asking us first or if they claim it as there own. So if anyone has issues with my comments then that is your choice, I am only speaking my mind. Life is complicated enough to not find issues as small as something posted here being found on another site to worry about. I will step down off my soap box now.
I am interested in the contests as well. Thank you.
EDIT: Sweet! You're now added to the list!
I am only posting on this feed for two reasons, Not that I want to get into any drama just giving my two cents worth. First I would like to take a moment to personally "Thank" Dick Egerbert as well as all the rest of those here who are vets, "Thank You for your service". I am a disabled Marine so I too understand what you have and are going through. Secondly, I want to mention that I agree with Dick, some of us are not as financially able as others who share things on here. I joined this site to share when I could and to help others who were living on limited funds like me. I come to this site daily to check for new posts as well as I check the requests page and try to help those I can. Lately there has been drama about this one posting that or that one sharing on other sites. When I joined I don't remember any rules about sharing anything we get on any other site. If I missed that rule I am sorry. I thought we were all here to help each other, to share items. Now maybe there are a few who have or are taking advantage of things shared here or maybe worse. However for the most part I have only found helpful, friendly people here. Well to sum it up, I would have to agree with Tomsk & Ethiopia are we not all mature enough to move past the drama, arguments and negativity? I personally feel there is enough of that in the world already. Like I said, just my two cents worth for what it matters.
Not trying to complain but would like to also be added to the list of no daily points. I have not had any daily points since the 21st. I have read all the posts and most of them say enter contests, share ( I try but my bandwith is slow and limited) or purchase points, I am on disability and only receive $730 a month which barely covers bills, I do Daz/Poser to help me relax and to help others. I work with elderly groups as well as children's groups on a volunteer basis, doing graphic design. I can not really afford to purchase points I rely on the free daily points to help others. No disrespect to anyone who posted here just inputting my two cents. Thank you for your time.
