Paysite Discussion Thread
miros1:
Well, I'm trying not to get vicious. How about you meet me on the Adult board, since Kathy's chicken? The safe word is "Gerbits"!
pickpock:
lol at all of you
To get this back on track, have you seen MTS2 recent rule changes, and the e-mail HP got from EA?

I just checked out the new rules myself... I think it's an alright idea, but that's certainly a lot more things for my poor little brain to remember... (especially if one has been on a PMBD clothes and hair binge recently. :smt120 ) I think I'll stick to uploading here for now. :angel:
And that new email seems pretty interesting. :smile bi: Man, sometimes I wish that EA Legal would just go ahead and post what they truly think on the official site. (yes, I know the email is from the online support, not from the legal department... but I want to see them with a truly solid stance for once.) All of these back and forth issues with all custom content has me so frustrated now that I could care less on what happens to it... truly sad in my case. :icon9:

This is my problem as well. With all the flipflopping and what have you I simply could care less any more. Shit the one person who responded favorably to Nouk or Diana gave the complete opposite reply to Ali so I don't know if any of them even know wtf is going on.
The rule mts2 posted is the same rule Eric wanted to post a few months back but there seem to be some conflicting opinions on it so it hasn't been enforced.

I'm a custom content fanatic and I do donate to some of the pay sites only because I appreciate what they do. I think people should be able to charge for their creations because the tutorials are out there and people are just too lazy to learn how to do things themselves (myself for example). I like the free sites more because they seem more people friendly and it seems that they truly do it because they love it. Now when I make lots I try to use as little pay content as possible because it's a hassle. I would love not to have to pay for custom content but if that's how people make their money then I say they should go for it.
Also, I read someone said "stupid" people pay for the content, but some of us truly appreciate the time and effort that these people put into their creations.
Another opinion of mine is that if these sites are going to have pay items then they shouldn't be so picky about the free items. I hate that on some sites (4ESF for example) won't allow you to redistribute their free items. Credit is a given. I think if people are too lazy to provide credit then they shouldn't be allowed to use the person's content. But if credit is given I don't see the problem. I don't know much about running a website but if they would allow people to redistribute their free items wouldn't they be able to free up space on their website bringing the maintenance costs down? I don't know...
